Dr. Edwin Fair, the Psychiatrist Director of the Bi-State Mental Health Foundation, wrote a letter to Congressman Page Belcher urging support for S. 2523, the Senate Community Mental Health Centers Amendments of 1969. The letter outlines why the Senate bill is preferable to the House version and highlights three key provisions of the Senate bill. The foundation serves a six-county area in North Central Oklahoma and believes that federal funds have been well spent on mental health services in the region. Congressman Belcher assures Dr. Fair that he will carefully consider the points made in the letter when the conference report on the bill comes before the House.
