MATINEE ONLY — KIDDIE SHOW — BIO SCIENCE FICTION MONSTER SHOW THE MOST FANTASTIC SCIENCE ADVENTURE FILMED! Ac A .*COLO«SCOPE COLOR AN INTERNATIONAL Diseases of the heart and criculatory system caused 59.4 per cent of all deaths in St. Lawrence County in 1972, Ed- ward P Whalen, MD , President of the St Lawrence Co. Heart Chapter revealed today This fatality rate for heart disease is not an estimate It based on the mortality figures for the county supplied by the Office of Biostatistics of the New York St^te Department of Health S!. Laurence County mortality rate is slightly more than the national average. Throughout the Governor proclaims Heart Month *\ t* Governor Rockefeller has designated February as * 'Heart Month\ in A proclamation describing heart disease, which* took more than 75.000 lives in New York last year, as \still the leading cause of death\ in the state and nation. / - \The death rate from heart disease continues to decrease in New York State, from 45S.9 per 100.000 population in 1966 to 414 5 in 1971,\ the Governor said. \Great strides have been made in the medical and surgical treatment aod rehabilitation of heart disease victims. The ultimate goal of preventing heart disease is not yet in sight, but efforts to that end are gaining momentum because of advances medical research and in- creasing public interest and support \ The Governor paid tribute to the New York State Heart Assembly and the American ^Heart Association for having \contributed significantly to the fight against heart disease\ and said \they deserve our ap- preciation and support.\ nation, diseases of the heart and .circulatory system account for slightly more than 54 per cent of the deaths recorded each* year. Dr Whalen noted that figures showed that heart disease was the leading cause of death in the United States in 1968, accounting ior more than 1,000,000 fatalities in the year More than half (674,747) of aH cardiovascular deaths vtere the resiiit of heart attacks, and more than another \290.000 deaths were attributed to strokes or \cerebral accidents.\ In addition to the numt^er of people who are killed each year by cardiovascular diseases, Dr. Whalen pointed out that there are more than 27 million Americans afflicted with some forjn of cardiovascular disease such as hypertensive heart Hisease, coronary heart ,-disease, rheumatic heart disease and Jwpertension / , . ' \It is obvious,\ he said, \that we are concerned with a health problem which menaces millions of Americans and casts its shadow over every family in the country. I feel certain that everyone in St. Lawrence County >wiU want to help in the fight Against heart disease by sup- porting the Heart Fund campaign in February.\ During the month of February, the St Lawrence County Heart . Chapter conducts its annual Heart Fund drive The money collected is used by the Chapter to support research through the American Heart Association and 4ocal programs of community service and public education. The first phase of the 1972 Census of Transportation, the National Travel Survey, gets un- derway this week with the mail- ing of the first of 24.000 ques- tionnaires to households in se- lected areas throughout the Unit- ed States by the Census Bureau, an agency of the US Department of CommerceV'Soclal and Eco- nomic Statistics Administration CSESAJL The Census ol Transportation is one of a number of censuses, called the Economic Censuses, now taken in the years ending in \2\ and IT 1 , which measure the Nation's business and indus- trial activities Other activities covered ar© business (retail, wholesale and service), industry (manufacturing and mining), con- struction and commercial fish- ing. The first Travel Survey was taken in 1963 as part of the Cen- ;&«fe ol Transportation and a sac r /ond was taken in 1967. The Questionnaires will go out in three mailings. The first third \he second of the Travel Survey will be pub- lished in December. Data collected in the National Travel Survey* have wide applications for both private in- dustry and government* A large number of Americans are em- ployed in the transportation and '^allied industries. The amount of travel, the accommodations used by the travelers, and other relat- ed factors affect these workers and in turn the entire economy. The information obtained will be used by government and private agencies in planning the improve- jnent of highways, airports, rail- way stations, and other trans- portation facilities, as well as restaurants, hotels, motels, rec- reation areas and the like. - Cooperation in r the census is required by law. The law also protects those required to fill out questionnaires by prohibiting the Census Bureau from disclosing ar.y information about a household t>r household member. The data obtained may be used only to com- pile statistical totals. zm NEWS FR0M ASSEMBLYMAN L DANIEL HALEY go out this week. third in early March and the re- Assemblyman Daniel Haley an- mainder , in early -April* The nounced that he visited Boston groups of families in the survey, \last Friday and was briefed will be questioned at 3-month in- tervals throughout the year about their travels both at home and on \for the real felt the Mas- go not far abroad. The Census of Transportation is concerned primarily with the movement of people and goods. The National Travel Survey por- tion of the census asks questions on the number and kinds _>i trips .100 miles or more away from Jhome that were made by house- *hold members. Some of these ^questions cover the mode of transportation, purpose of the trips, overnight accommoda- tions, nights away from home and period of travel. Information collected in the census will be published as sea- spnal travel data and as a profile of travel for 1972.

Haley said he was impressed by the way the system was work- ing, and said that Corrvmissioner Ryan told him that under the new Massachusetts property damage •no-fault system, which went into •eftect in 1972, claims must be paid within 15 days — which was almost impossible when much time and money had to be spent in determining who could be • blamed for an accident. Further- more, Ryan told him, now all who actually suffer damage and injury are compensated for their econ- omic loss — and often under the old system, if no one could be found at fault, no one collected. \One of the greatest eventual \gains from No-Fault,\ Haiey pointed out, \will be the unclut- tering of the court calendar. How- ever, there are Jtill too many cases left over from the pre- ceding system for the Massachu- setts courts yet to have felt this resulu Of course, the load of new cases is way down.\ \One problem Massachusetts had with no-fault property dam- age insurance,\ Haley, said, \was in cases where a parked or sta- tionary car covered by $50 de- ductible was hit by another car. Under No-Fault, the innocent driver was s$uck for that first $50. To correct this situation, Massachusetts'has now provid- ed for allowing the motorist to buy back $50 of the \deductible from the insurance company for an additional $5 premium.'* \A significant difference be- tween Massachusetts and New York State,\ Haley pointed out, \is that the Massachusetts In- surance Commissioner has pow- er actually to set the insurance rates, instead of to review them, as in New York.\ \Apparently I happened to be at the Massachusetts StateHouse on a most significant day for No- Fault,\ Haley declared, \since' on that very day. Commissioner Ryan went from briefing me to his new conference where he announced the Iv72 rates — which produced reductions for 30 per cent of Massachusetts motorists, -exactly as hac been predictec in the Legislature's Insurance Committee's report of October 5, 1971.\ . Haley noted that the Ne* York State Trial Lawyers have stated that Profs. KeetonandO'Connell, -who were iAS.trumental iw stimu- lating tr>€ creation of tne Massa- chusetts Plan, no longer recom- mend adoption of the Massachu- setts *No-Fauit Plan. \This is somewhat rr t isiear;ng, however/\ of a November 1^27 report committee of the New York Lawyers Association, heaaed by Isidor Wels (Charles Evans Hughes was a member of the committee). This report recom- mended a no-fault auto insur- ance plan and, Haley said, \most -of its language is as timely today as when it was written.\ The report particularly stressed the need for motorists to have a plan similar to-Workmen's Com- pensation, which is based on the no-fault principle, and the report ever, included a draft bill. \• \So this is hardly anew idea,\ Haley declared, \but ore whose time had definitely come. I strongly commend Senator Ber- narJ Gordon for his leadership in sponsoring this legislation in this year's session, and offer him my ^tr'-ncest support and co- operation. And also, Haley con- cluded, \1 want to thank Gov- ernor Rockefeller for giving his support to No-Fault Insurance. I have frequently disagreed with him on fiscal policies, but I completely agree with him on No- Fault and am happy to commend him for his strong stress on this legislation. In a time where ev- erything seems to be getting mor£ complicated,\ Haley con- ( ducieci f \this is one area where a way has been found to simpli- •fy things. I hope we pass a good strong No-Fault bill for New York State drivers this session.\ On Dean's List Miss Marie Maroun, daughter- of Mr. and Mrs. Michael F.
