Last week busy Dr. Miner declared he would work his new American Dental Association duties into his already full life somehow. A. D. A. presidents are expected to do a lot of traveling to keep in touch with the 48 state dental societies and to keep the member's noses glued to dental ideals. Said Dr. Miner: "I hope to break Percy Howe's record when he was president,* of having traveled less than any other A. D. A. president. . . ."
* The A. M. A. has 92,600 members compared to A. D. A.'s 40,073. Proud are dentists that the A. D. A. includes 70% of the 58,004 U. S. dentists, whereas the A. M. A. includes only some 50% of the 170,000 U. S. doctors. * Director Percy Rogers Howe of Boston's Forsyth Dental Infirmary for Children, A. D. A. President in 1929.
