The subcommittee met at 10 a.m., pursuant to call, in the caucus room, Cannon Office Building, Hon. Kenneth Roberts (chairman of the subcommittee) presiding. Mr. ROBERTS. The subcommittee will please be in order. This morning, the subcommittee on Public Health and Safety is beginning hearings on H.R. 2410, entitled "A bill to amend the Public Health Service Act to provide greater flexibility in the organization of the U.S. Public Health Service, and for other purposes." The bill was introduced by Representative Oren Harris, chairman of the full committee, at the request of the administration. The bill would grant to the Surgeon General broad powers to reorganize the Public Health Service. During the first days of hearings, the subcommittee will attempt to lay a broad foundation for the subsequent and more detailed consideration of the provisions of the bill. In order to deal properly with this legislation, I believe that it is necessary for the subcommittee to have a clear picture of the present programs administered by the Public Health Service, and to be aware of the directions in which these programs have developed over the years and are likely to develop in the future if the public health needs of the American people are to be met adequately. No person and no agency is an island. This is also true of the Public Health Service. The nature of the demands made by modern developments in the health field is such that these demands can no longer be met by the Public Health Service alone. In order to properly meet these needs, the responsibilities of other Federal agencies both within and outside the Department of Health, Education, and Welfare must be coordinated with those of the Public Health Service. Therefore, the subcommittee will take a brief look at the health responsibilities of other Federal agencies and at the governmental machinery and procedures used to coordinate the public health responsibilities of these several agencies. In conducting these hearings, the Chair and all of the members of the subcommittee are very mindful of their responsibilities. In approaching the pending reorganization legislation in this manner, it is the purpose of the subcommittee to make a careful review of the programs and the organization of the Public Health Service.
