Victor Weingarten of New York City told the National Allied Health Conference in Sun Valley that both the public and government must share blame for the poor health knowledge. He predicted Congress will act to guarantee health care as a right this decade and warned hospital care costs are rising while physicians resist group practice.

Summer Grazing Slow For Stock
Idaho cattlemen and sheepmen face lean grazing this summer as USDA and weather service reports show slow range grass growth. Climatologist Kenneth A. Rice cites above normal temperatures and below normal precipitation south of the Salmon River since March. Delbert Fallon notes grasses are only two to three inches where seven or eight inches expected, due to surface moisture loss from frost and daytime winds. Sheepmen hope for moisture and warmth, while higher elevations may offer better grazing as the season advances. 市
