Although health and environmental problems caused by industrial hazards and accidents have usually not been given as high a priority as they deserve, government spending in appropriate areas is being decreased still further at a time when financing for cleaning up and prevention of future mishaps is needed most. The resultant dangers to both our environment in general and to populated communities must be pointed out to officials in charge of appropriations, something which medical examiners and practicing physicians are in an ideal position to do.
