Funding levels requested in
the President’s fiscal year 1973
budget request to Congress to
support Veterans Administra-
tion programs for America’s
veterans are the highest in the
history of the nation.
Donald E. Johnson, adminis-
trator of Veterans Affairs, said
the VA appropriations request
of $11.7 billion up about $790
million over fiscal year 1972,
marks the fourth consecutive
year in which record VA budget
requests have been recorded.
The total budget authority for
VA in fiscal year 1973 Johnson,
added, amounts to $12.4billion,
an increase of $1 billion over
fiscal year 1972. The total is
the highest in VA history for
the third straight year.
The new budget calls for an
increase in VA’s average
employment of 11,640 to bring
the work force total to 183,876.
Nearly 11,000 of the employ-
ment increase is earmarked for
VA’s Department of Medicine
and Surgery which operates the
agency network of hospitals,
clinics and other health delivery
facilities. Average medical
employment in the new fiscal
year is targeted at 162,246,
the greatest number of
employees in the department’s
annals.
The VA head said a record
medical care appropriation re-
quest of nearly $2.5 billion up
$166.1 million over fiscal year
1972 will permit VA to achieve
these new levels:

I according to Dr. Frank Ortis,
I meats specialist with the Texas
* Agricultur 1 Extension Service.
Under me new program,
federal meat inspectors will
hold all cattle and sheep from
slaughter at least seven days
unless the animals are certi-
fied as not having been fed
DES or as having been with-
drawn from DES at least seven
days before slaughter.
According to Orts, there are
three alternatives for handling
cattle and sheep at slaughter:
1. The animals may be
slaughtered if certification re-
quirements have been met.
2. The animals will be held
alive for the required seven
days.
3. The animals could be
slaughtered, with samples sent
to a U.S. Dept, of Agriculture-
approved laboratory for test-
ing. Meat from the animals
could not be marketed until
tests prove they are free of
DES residues.
The new program will help
provide further assurance that
DES residues will not be found
in the nation’s meat supply,
says Orts. Vilators will be
subject to criminal prosecution
by the Food and Drug Adminis-
tration.
