A Journal of the American Medical Association report summarized by two Rand researchers finds the doctor count keeps pace with population growth, rising from 119 to 152 per 100,000 since 1950.

Goulds grim Dow forecast for 1976 and beyond sparks debate
In a cautious outlook Gould flags a potential 1976 downturn but expects a rebound in 1977 and 1978 with the Dow rising to 3 000 to 5 000 in the 1980s. He cites past postwar gains and warns of a difficult winter before a long upward cycle, noting three-step market moves and the risk of a fourth drop. He links bullish trends to sound international finances and warns against welfare culture while urging work ethic renewal.
