TO: Lynn Rhodes Defendant,
Greeting:
You are hereby commanded to
appear before the Honorable Dis-
trict Court of Cherokee County
at the Court House thereof, in
that reason we have attempted to
provide the best education sysem j SUple length; United
possible for our school children of
today who will be our citizens of
tomorrow.
Even though we have gone to
great expense in time, effort and
money to provide these facilities
for our young students, we deny
this privilege to many of them
each year because of a few care-
less seconds on the part of some
of us. Each year, many school
children are killed or permanent-
ly disabled in accidents involving ! Rusk, Texas, at or before 10

which are less severe are deprived

of training.
The Texas Safety Association
urges you to accept the responsi-
bility of a NEVER ENDING vigil
to protect the safety of these
youngsters while you are driving
your car on the streets and high- ;
ways. These young children do j
not have the sound judgement
necessary to respect an automo-
bile and to fear accidents, there-
fore it is up to the adult people
of the State to protect these boys
and girls and to insure their
safety when they are around us.
The fact that you would not be
liable to legal action for the
death of the youngster who darts
out into the street and under the
wheels of your car would not
ease your mind, or bring back the
life which would be lost.

Co:, describes the fluoridation pro-
cess as a "tremendous step for-
ward in the fight against dental
diseases. It's simple and inexpen- i
sive, as well as effective."
"It won't be a cure-all," cau-
tions Dr. Edward Taylor, director
of dental health at the State
Health Department. "It won't give
children complete protection a-
gainst tooth decay, but it will re-
duce decay from 23 to 47 per-
cent."
He said tnat range of reduction
percentage had been established
in departmental experiments with
artificial fluoridation in Marshall.
The addition of the chemical to

1.5 parts per million parts of

ed as a decay control measure by

Service , the American Water

Recommendations are subject
to approval of state and local
health departments, which has
been granted in the case of the
three Texas cities.
Marshall began artificial fluori-
dation in 1946 in a controlled ex-
periment, and was a leader in the
field both nationally and locally.
Corpus Christi began the water
treatment in October last year.
Austin City Manager Walter
Seaholm has indicated that orders
for equipment have been placed,
and treatment will began as soon
■ as delivery and installation are
complete.
Combining the population of the
three cities, over 300,000 people
will soon be drinking water chemi-
cally treated to retard or prevent
dental decay.
