Dr. Lyman Mid he results of the queatlonnaln show local officials are ed in upgrading local health care. It was the first time local officials were asked If they support state and federal help to Improve health care at the county level. "For three years we have ed for aid-to-county funds," Dr. Lyman said.

"But never have we had expressions of oplnloni by local officials as to whether these programs were valuable." In asking for the money to provide nursing care and acceaa to sanitarians for att counties, the Board of Health pointed out that local public health services in Kansas have been supported mostly by local and federal tax dollars. In fiscal 1172 federal aM to Kansas counties far beaMh care amounted to I7I73H. But during the same year the state provided only strengthen local health All of that f7MH to state money was earmarked for family planning. The board's budget request said Kansas spends $56.31 per person per year in aid to local education, $19.87 per person per year in aid to local welfare programs, and only 3 cents per person per year for local health programs. Said Dr.

Lyman, "It would bo useless for us to continue asking for money for local health can without the support of the communities themselves."
