North Carolina Board of Health 15 tion be owned or operated by a county, city or the State of North Carolina, except that milk industry laboratories, approved at the request of local health departments, may be located on private property," Dr. Preston presented and discussed legislation on medical assistance for persons 65 and over. The 1960 amendments to the Social Security Act provide, among other things, available Federal funds for states desiring to make available medical care for either or both of the following two groups of persons over 65 years of age: — 1. Recipients of old age assistance. 2. Persons who are not recipients of old age assistance but whose income and resources are insufficient to meet all the costs of certain medical care. Each state must work out a plan acceptable to the Secretary of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare. This plan must designate one agency or create a single agency to supervise the medical care included. We are advised that present legislation in North Carolina is not adequate to make these programs available in this State. The Executive Council of the Medical Society of the State of North Carolina has passed a resolution and forwarded it to Governor Hodges proffering the cooperation of the Committee on Chronic Illness with whatever agency and officials may be designated to formulate plans and policies concerning the medical assistance provisions of these amendments. Dr. Ellen Winston, Commissioner of the State Board of Public Welfare, has indicated that that Board is studying the amendments and conferring with Washington officials of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare to determine appropriate opportunities and responsibilities of that Board with regard to the old age assistance program and the pooled fund for hospitalization. Following discussion, Dr. Dawsey moved, seconded by Dr. Edwards, that the State Board of Health ask Dr. Norton and Dr. Bender to represent the State Board in conference with top officials of the Department of Health, Education and Welfare so as to ascertain opportunities and responsibilities which might properly be of concern to this Board and to recommend such action as the facts and their judgment would indicate. Secretary Norton discussed representation to the North Carolina Health Council from the State Board of Health of two members to represent the Board. On motion of Dr. Dawsey, seconded by Mr. Jackson, Dr. Jacob Koomen and Mrs. Lula Belle Rich, were unanimously elected as voting delegates to represent the Board of Health at meetings of the North Carolina Health Council. Dr. Norton gave a brief verbal report on poliomyelitis cases. As information. President Bugg reported that Dr. S. F. Ravenel, Chairman of the Committee on Salk Vaccine for the Medical Society of the State of North Carolina, has requested from the Advisory Budget Commission, a renewal of the $216,000.00 appropriation made available for purchase of polio vaccine for the present biennium, that the Medical Society Executive Council has approved his committee action and he recommended
