Fluoridation is a form of pollution because sodium fluoride is a most deadly ^nd accumulative poison. This tox ic poison has no safety tolerance, established by Toxicologist Her- J>ert E. Stokinger, Jr., when with the U. S. Public Health Service in 1958. Some claim that 1 ppm sod ium fluoride in drinking water UrfU greatly prevent lasting tooth decay and thusly improve health conditions. The actual status creates doubts. Unrelated comparisons, unsupported deni- 4ds and evasive arguments do pot convince anyone who seeks recorded facts. If statistical Endings, relative to both rats and humans, are not acceptable to the lervid proponets, what nature of eupport can be accepted ? (Surely not “guess work" or “hear say”.As to petty politics, it seems that any candid person, seeking the truth, would not be little so vital an issue by such tactics. In a booklet, entitled, THE FACTS ON WATER FLUORI DATION, published by the RO- DALE PRESS, INC., it is re corded that the city of Grand Ra pids, Mich., began a fluoridation experiment in 1944. In 1948, > it was discovered, that while the in cidence of tooth decay among 6 year old children was reduced by 51.37 p.c., it was also found that the DEATH rate from HEART disease had increased 100% and the DEATH rate from KIDNEY disease had increased 50% in the same period! If any one can claim that tooth decay in this case was due solely to sodium fluoride in drinking wa ter, it can also be claimed with equal validity that this horrible increase in the DEATH rate of HEART and KIDNEY diseases was due to sodium fluoride. It appears that some zealous pro ponents do not believe the health of older people and the chroni cally ill, worth considering, com pared with their zeal in trying to prevent tooth decay among the 6- 13 year group. This seems like a most unsympathetic considera- THE NEWBERRY SUN, NEWBERRY, SOUTH CAROLINA THURSDAY, MARCH SI, tion. In issue of the Arizona Repub* lie, 2-lft*1953- ^hich quoted opin ions of 1)¥. Howard V. Smith and Dr. M$cganE^ |3mith of the Uni versity of • Arizona, both world experts in fluoridation, made this statemefijt, “Nobody yet has determined how much fluorine is good for what section of this country, how much will cause tooth decay and how much will cause tooth mottling and deform ation.” The research was in com munities with range of from four tenths of 1 ppm to 1.3 ppm flu orine present and tlie findings re vealed, “ample evidence that mot tled teeth, though they may be somewhat more resistant to the onset of decay, are structurally weak and that unfortunately, when decay does set in, the result is often disastrous.” Dr. Box, member of the Dental faculty, University of Toronto and with an international reputation, in checking’tfie dental status of many who liad been exposed to naturally fluoridated water any length of time, discovered apall- ing gum diseases with serious structural defects which indi cated premature aging of tooth structure, : making extractions very difficult, because of root fractures, thus causing an early need for false teeth. Hence, side- effects in later years, due to cum ulations of fluorine, may nullify the apparent advantages of flu- ridation. These facts suggest that fluoridation made upon a “hit v or miss” basis, could possibly contri bute to creating serious tobth fail ure conditions, which at a later date, will demand greater dental service. Instead of trying to fill cavities with no enamel support, more tinie will be devoted to “tooth pulling” and the fitting of “false teeth”, which process re quires a moro costly professional service.

Why suggest a daily sodium fluoride cocktail contain ing such dangerous hazards ? Why not promote more effect ive and far safer methods of pre serving teeth than by fluoridation ? It is well known that children can eat too much sugar in such things as candy, cake, soft drinks, ad infinitum. Since sugar ( combines with calcium of the body to form a waste, tooth decay naturally fqllows. To solve this problem, the Chief Dental officer of a Massachusetts hospital v conduct ed < a long series of experimeta- tions.He found an edible substance and prescribed it as a dietary supplement, which answered * his search with the utmost optimis tic results. This substance is made from the bones of selected young beef animals and is sold as Natural-Organic Bone tablets at some drug 'stores. These tab lets are rich in calcium. Thus, a more practical and a safer solu tion of the tooth decay problem. T. L. HILL MILLS, €££$16 * .Mrs. p&xqlyn. Edwards and ba by boy, Saluda. . Mrs. Angie Lake, Little Moun tain.
