ROBERTS Associated Press News Analyst If there is any comfort at all to be extracted from the President’s illness it lies in the vast amount of information about the symptoms, causes and results of heart disease which has spread among the people. "Possibly excepting the spate following the announce* ment of the Salk polio vaccine, no single scientific problem has received such concentrated attention from all media of in formation since announcement of the atom bomb in 1954. It is possible that the Presi dent’s illness will have an even greater impact on the campaign against '■ heart disease than did that of President Roosevelt on polio, because Eisenhower was stricken while in office and Roos evelt was not. In that light, it is hard to un derstand why the President’s aides should be embarrassed' by any efforts to utilize the wide spread public interest in raising money to fight the nation’s No. 1 killer. The presidential office is one. of course, which must be pro tected from use for most pro motional purposes and the aides are probably right in wanting to wait for nis own reaction on the point. But Eisenhower has so often expressed realisation of the humanitarian aspects of the presidency that his later ap proval seems likely. In this connection, also, one cannot help but wonder whether it is time for the /government itself to start financing the re search and promotion needed in the battles against all major dis eases, such as heart trouble and cancer. Would amply financed "crash" programs do far more quickly what the voluntary programs have done for polio and tuber culosis? Experts disagree. One of the possibilities is that there may not be enough trained men to take advantage of suddenly increased research facilities. Another possibility is that basic information is not yet sufficient on which to base such programs. The crash program which produced the atom bomb could not have been conducted- in 1920 for this reason. It could have been conducted in 1939. It was not begun until four years after that under the pres sure of war. But Americans would be unhappy if concen trated attacks on any major disease should be delayed after the basic information is avail able. Any suggestion for government support of such projects always raises the fear that they would advance the cause of socialism. . This -need not > be (true > unless SATURDAY. OCTOBER 1,195 S Id learn to Silver Lining Ikes Illness the authors and administrators of such projects wish it to be true. Inherently, the mass saving of life is not more socialistic than arrangements for its mass - de struction.
