Life I 2plJjK-- In 1900 the average life expectancy was about 42 years. Today, life expectancy has increased to 67. Yes, 25 years of normal, productive life have been added to the life span of the average American. The Doctor and the Pharmacist and their colleagues in allied professions have contributed greatly to longer and healthier lives for us . . . through new drugs, new surgical techniques, new diagnostic tests and many other advances. For example, not so long ago a diabetic faced a two-to-one chance of an early death. Now, he can live a normal life expectancy on a drug whose daily cost is less than the price of a pack of cigarettes. Research Bads the many new drug which have lengthened our life expectancy. Consider an epileptic who can now be a productive, self-supporting citizen because medical research has produced a drug costing only pennies a day. J Fred J. Feldhousen, Ph. G. R.P. Peter J.
