James Doctor Raps Fellow MDs NEW YORK AP)-Dr. Paul R Hawley, director of the American College of burgeons, says it is re liably estimated that one half of the surgical operations in the United States are now performed by "doctors who are untrained, or inadequately trained, to undertake surgery. He says inadequately trained physicians are doing an increas ing amount of surgery because every insured patient is a paying patient. Hawley made the statements at a session of the Group Health In stitute Wednesday. He said one of the world's most distinguished surgeons told him that at least half his practice now "consists of attempts to correct the bad results of surgery under taken in community hospitals by doctors inadequately trained in this field." He did not name the surgeon. Hawley said the existing plans combining prepayment with group medical practice provide medical Care of high qualify. He said, however, that nation wide extension of such plans could be dangerous "unless equal high quality of care could be as sured." Hawley said the success of the plans now existing is due to their ability to select the physicians who give the medical .care. A.

Available in Standard, Perforated and weather -reaietant Tempered, these popular panels are used in home construction projects, furniture, schools, automobiles and children's toys. Manufactured under the exchiaiva Weyerhaeuaer "dry" proceaa, ciaaaified wood fibers are eomprenaed to uniform density and thickness. Weyerhaeuser hardboard creates Northwest jobs New and improved products from wood enn tribute; to the economic stability of the Northwest. This m illustrated in the manufacture of Weytex hardboard at our Klamath Falls, Oregon plant. t Five yean ago we completed construction of this new facility and began producing high quality hardboard panels for industrial and building uses. More than 100 new jobs were created at this plant Today, Weytex is marketed through distributors and lumber dealers throughout the United States. Sales to these outlets return important dollars for circulation within the Pacific Northwest. To meet the requirements of the nations building market, we have added hardboard paneling and rustic hardboard siding to our product line. Product develop ments and improvements such as this tend to increase both sales volume and employment. The future of Weytex and all other forest products depends upon a perpetual supply of wood. For this rea son, we grow timber as a crop on Company tree farms. Further, it is our policy to constantly work toward the most efficient and profitable utilization of our avail able raw materials. This, we believe, provides maximum conservation of our timber crops. The forest industry in Oregon and Washington support more than 50 per cent of our regional economy. Through careful forestry practices, constant research and new product development, the industry will continue to pro vide an increasingly diversified and stable foundation for prosperity in the Pacific Northwest.
