Cefalu
resigns
To The Editor:
l would like to take this opportunity to
announce that effective July 31, 1985, !
will resign my position as Medical
Director of Lallie Kemp Charity Hospital
in affiliation with the Tulane University
School of Medicine as Clinical Assistant
Professor of Medicine. Since my
appointment on March I, 1981, and
over the last four years, I have enjoyed
working with the various departments
as well as the Dean's Office, the
students, interns, residents, and faculty
at Lallie Kemp Hospital as well as at the
school itself. I have also enjoyed my
association with the patients, employees,
and department heads at Lallie Kemp
Hospil#l.
l would like to thank all of those indi-
viduals I have worked with over the last
four years.
Charles A. Cefalu, M.D.
Medical Director
Changes needed
Dear Editor,
People in Louisiana are crying out for
a change. Just like in the movie, "Net-
work," many are saying "I'm mad as
hell, and I'm not going to take this
anymore." Others are saying they have
no idea what can be done but that they
feel a tremendous frustration with what
is happening in our state.
What is happening? A better question
should be, "What isn't happening?"
Louisiana has failed to rise to meet
the challenges of the 1980's and if we
don't roll up our sleeves and go to work,
we will continue to be a failure. We
must change our attitude toward
education, economic development, and
more fundamentally, we must change
our attitude toward chicanery and
corruption on the part of our public
officials. The go-go days of the 1960's
and 1970's are over. Our petro-
chemical industries no longer enjoy
cheap energy and find themselves at a
competitive disadvantage with the rest
of the world because of the heavy
dollar. Louisiana has not moved out of
the 1982-83 recession, nor does it show
any signs of doing so in the near future.
Even if we were to recover our former
dominance in petro-chemicai
production, the unskilled dropout
would not qualify for work in one of our
plants because they are too sophistted
and too complicated now for such a
worker. I like to make the comparison
between our dependency on natural
resources and a dependency on drugs.
We, like West Virginia, have built too
much of our economic base around our
natural resources. With these industries
in recession, there are no other jolts to
take up the slack. Like West Virginia,
we are in danger of having chronic
double digit unemployment, and
indeed becoming the Appalchia of the
South. Unless we reform our
educational system and begin to fund
our colleges and universities adequately,
we can never expect to develop a
trained and skilled work force. And, no
matter what other economic
development inducements we offer,
without such a work force we will never
attract new industries.
In "spite of all of this, the Governor
has not provided the leadership and the
Legislature has not acted responsibly to
meet the challenge. We continue to do
business as usual. We refuse to reorder
our budget priorities in order to make
funds available for education and we
continue to wallow in inactivity.
With my recent outbursts, it is pretty
obvious that I'm mad as hell. It doesn't
do any good if only a few of us are mad.
If were going to have change in
Louisiana, you're going to have to get
mad too.
Best regards,
Kevin PI Reilly, Chairman
Committee on Appropriations
