Harriet Cave argues centers divert funds and lack accountability, while Maarten Nieuwenhuizen says Missouri has reduced hospital populations and centers could overburden hospitals if folded. Center losses persist since 1969 with a $140,000 deficit last year and a projected $3 million funding gap by 1983.
