Abstract

To the Editor: The paper by Dans and Johnson on “Politics in the Development of a Migrant Health Center” (April 24 issue of the Journal) is an important analysis of community-medicine history and issues. The authors have been scrupulous in avoiding value judgments and perhaps for that reason did not mention the rather unimaginative performances of some state and county health departments that received migrant health funds in the six or eight years before the major funding change in 1970. The authors refer only to the problem that in the early years of the Migrant Health Act the funds.
