Testified famed Cardiologist Paul Dudley White: "Massachusetts has become a laughingstock because of its resistance to the removal of this handicap which threatens to stifle further advance in medicine and surgery.''

A proud and portly man with a flair for oratory and a willingness to travel 25,000 miles a year to plead Howard's cause, Johnson has seen his budget swell from less than $956,000 to $5,658,500.
