Church Develops
Documentary Films
By CLAIRE COX
United Press International
New York -IUPI1- The Unit
ed Church of Christ is using
documentary movies to try to
stir congregations out of lit
urgical lethargy and Into de
cisive action on socio-economic
problems.
The Rev. Dr. Everett C.
Parker, director of communi
cations of the denomination,
has produced a series of films
on urban cultural movements
and farm problems. His most
recent m o v he , entitled "To
morrow?", deals with automa
tion and appeals to the
churches to Join In solving
the problems presented by it.
Parker's aim is to get more
congregational groups Inter
ested In the vital issues of the
times.
"Too many churches want
religious films that entertain
rather than disturb." Parker
said In an interview. "Our
new automation film is be
ing used widely by labor un
ions, industrial groups,
schools and colleges but we
have not sold a print to a
single church.
"Churches should be con
cerned in films with the same
things that the minister is
concerned with in the pulpit,
not s u g a r-coated situations
solved by the Gospel but a
hard look al the serious prob
lems that man is facing.
Problem Films
"Most church films are not
made In the terms of the tacts
of everyday living. They do
not think in terms of films
dealing with the Issues but of
the missions in India, for ex
ample, or the fine work that
is being done al a hospital. 1
am in favor of missionary
films, but we also need the
big issues put before us. We
need problem films.
"Our film on automation
was made basically for men.
We want It to go before men's
groups or before working
women. But since most work
ing women are bringing home
the second Income in the fam
ily, this problem of unem
ployment because of automa
tion is one we want to get be
fore men first."
The film presents discus
sions by workers, sociologists,
representatives of manage
ment and union leaders.
There are scenes showing
how extensive automation is
now and descriptions of how
men will be replaced on an
even larger scale by the ma
chines of the future.
No solutions are given. The
film poses problems for dis
cussion by the groups who see
It. It ends with appeals for
stewardship by the community-industry,
labor and the
churches in rechanneling
the manpower displaced by
machinepowcr.
The suggestion Is made that
the churches should bring to
gcther representatives of
management and labor and
community groups to try to
formulate constructive plans.

folks, not just the children, of
Dalarna province, who take
Midsummer and their village
Maypoles quite to heart.
Midsummer is a long three
day week end closest to the
shortest night in this sprawl
ing province of forest, lakes
and wide rivers.
Villagers in all of Dalarna's
little hamlets turn out in their
folklore dress (for themselves,
not just as show for the tour
ists), deck the Maypole with
birch leaves and flowers and
fiddle and dance a welcome to
summer.
But the folklore and beauty
of Dalarna are not just a one
day or a one week end things.
A visitor both before and after
Midsummer still can sample
the color of a people who re
fuse to abandon entirely old
ways and traditions.
Native Dress
For festivals, religious oc
casions and other events, the
women of Dalarna don their
long, bright skirts and white
blouses, and the men their
knee britches and long stock
ings. And if nothing special is
in the offing, the fiddlers (of
whom the people are quite
proud) and natives in costume
can be seen at least weekly at
the open air museum here at
Rattvik on the shore of Lake
Siljan.
Neither do the Maypoles
disappear after Midsummer.
They stand about the country
side until ready for decking
the next year.
In Dalarna, the people boast
that they refer even to the
king by the familiar second
person singular, "du." Not
strange, then, that they hold
to their own ways.
Tlicy still build their tim
bered, log cabin-like homes,
with each log carefully notch
ed to fit. And most of the
homes are the characteristic
deep red in color - painted
with an economical paint
made with substances obtain
ed from their ancient copper
mine at Falun.
Hand Work
Dalarna handicrafts are
lust that - made by laborous
hand work. Most everyone has
seen one nf the brick - red,
hand-painted Dala-horses, still
carved by hand in the homes
of the province. At Nittsjo, in
an old pottery, bowls, vases
and other artistic creations
still are turned on ixitters'
wheels. At Leksand. cloth is
decorated In a spectrum of
colors by a laborous hand and
silk screen method.
Dalarna long has been
loved by Swedish artists. The

presidential portraits hang in

and the bustle that goes with

There are swimming, hik

Ford Foundation Team To Study Old-Age Health Care
(Editor's note - Lawmak
ers and doctors and the
Kennedy administration are
involved in a controversy
over means of financing
medical care for the aged.
But what about the best
means of caring for senior
citizens? A pioneer study
has just begun in Roches
ter, N.Y., to determine the
human and financial fac
tors. The investigation, fi
nanced by the Ford Founda
tion, is expected to provide
the first scientific blue
print for care of over - 65
persons. In the following
dispatch, the director of
Operation Rochester dis
cusses hit work.)
By DR. JOHN HILL
Director, Ford Foundation
Project on Health Care
of the Aged
Written for
United Press International
How can we provide effec
tive and economical health
care for our mounting "over
65" population?
To help find some answers
to this critical problem, the
Ford Foundation is supporting
a new $325,000 experimental
project of the University of
Rochester and two Rochester
area agencies, the Council of
Social Agencies and the Pa
tient Care Planning Council.
The four -year study just
launched is believed to be the
nation's first intensive community-wide
effort of its
kind. It will be supervised
by a group of volunteer and
professional health and wel
fare leaders headed by Mar
ion B. Folsom, secretary for
health, education and welfare
during the Eisenhower ad
ministration. Working with
them will be professional
teams of doctors, nurses, so
cial workers, and specialists.
The results may have far
reaching effects in shaping
the future pattern of medical
care for our country's aged.
I And, although the study will
focus on the elderly, it may
shed new light on health serv
ices and costs in all age
groups.
The urgent need to pioneer
new paths in health care of
the aged results from three
nationwide trends;
-Sharply rising population
figures in the over -65 age
group, with an accompanying
rise in needs for health serv
ices for this group.
-Tremendously increased
numbers and kinds of health
services and facilities.
-Mounting costs of medical
care - with their impact on
the Individual's pocketbook
and on local, state, and fed
eral health and welfare budgets.
But the picture is far from
dark. In fact, the number and
variety of ways to care for the
elderly ill today offer greatly
expanded opportuni ties to
care he needs - with greater
economy of professional and
financial resources than ever
before.
Until recently, for example,
the elderly patient had only
two alternatives. He could go
to a hospital or he could stay
at home under his family's
care (if he had a family.) But
in the last few decades, a
whole new range of choices
has opened up. The types of

HE WARNED THEM
Pittsburgh - IUP1I - An enter

caved-in trunk he had writ

institutional care alone cover
a broad spectrum. A growing
number of communities have
general hospitals, hospi t a 1 s
for chronic or long-term pa
tients, nursing homes, homes
for the aged, and boarding
homes.
The types of non-institutional
service run an equally
broad gamut. The patient may j
have "organized health care,"
provided in him home by pro-:
fessional specialists working j
through a central agency. Or j
he may receive public health
nursing care at home. Or he
may stay in a foster home. Or
in an apartment connected ;
with an institution (such as a
home for the aged), where he
can be independent but can
readily get service if needed.
Some patients, of course,
can be effectively cared for
in only one type of facility.
For example, certain illnesses
or disabilities can be properly
handled only in a hospital.
But it's possible that some pa
tients can be served equally
well by one or more methods
of care. If a patient can live
at home by using community
services, he should not be
placed in an institution.
Our study proposes to
evaluate each type of health
care in terms of its effective
ness for different kinds of pa
tients and in terms of its cost,
compared to other equally
suitable types of care. Our
basic plan of attack, briefly,
is this:
First, we will take a ran
dom sample of elderly people
in our community. A profes
sional team composed of a
physician, a public health
nurse, and a medical social
worker will gather informa
tion on each person requiring
a variety of medical services.
With the patient's permission,
the team will assign him - on
a random basis - to one of the
types of care which they con
sider suitable for him. A rec
ord will be kept of the costs
involved in each case.
After about two months an
other professional team will
again evaluate each patient's
situation; they also will Inter
view him and his family to
learn their reaction to the
care which he received.
From this experience we
expect to be able to draw up
some standards for determin
ing the most suitable type of
care for various types of pa
tients. We should also learn
something about the obstacles
to patients' acceptance of the
kind of care recommended.
And we should get some indi
cation of the proportion of
elderly patients requiring
each type of health care.
In addition, we expect to
have amassed the data needed
to estimate the total cost of
each method of care for var
ious types of patients over a
given period. Eventually, we
should be able to work out a
method of estimating the rela
tive costs of care for any pa-1 method.
