HEAT COUNCIL: Reichenbach Son, Inc. County Oil Inc. D. Weaver, Inc. PHILADELPHIA (AP) The Pennsylvania Medical Society asked the state Tuesday to assume costs of Blue Cross and Blue Shield for the poor.

Dr. George P. Rosemond, society president, made the suggestion at the second day of public hearings here into health care delivery in the commonwealth. State Insurance Commissioner Herbert S. Denenberg called the hearings in response to a Blue Shield request for a rate increase.

Dr. Rosemond, Temple University surgeon, also asked for legislation to outlaw chiroprac SPONSORED BY 'rn'm I One of our most precious resources is oil. Yet every day millions of gallons of fuel oil specially produced for home heating requirements-are being wasted at electric generating plants in order to produce electrical power. In an average sized oil-heated home approximately 700 gallons of home-heating oil are used to provide the heating requirements for one year. An electrically-heated home of the same size requires 4 times as many gallons of heating oil at the generating plant to provide the same amount of heat.

The issue here is not the extravagant cost of electric heat, but the extravagant waste of heating oil in order to produce electric heat. This waste of one of our most vital resources fe of as great a concern to us as it must be to every conservation-conscious American.
