! Ibe fourth annual meeting OF the American Medical
Association viii be held at Charleston. South Carolina
on Tuesday, tbs 9th instant This association had its
origin in two great National Medical Conventions
held in New York in May, 1916, the other in Phadel-
phia in May. ls47 is composed Of delegates from the
various State and county medical societies. and from the
medical colleges and hospitals throughout the Union.
Its objects are, elevate tho standard OF medical educa
ton, promote the usefulness and honor and 10 give
frequent. united and emphatic expression the views
and aims OF the medical profession in this country The
association has heretofore lent its influence support OF
the claims OF the medical officers OF the navy to be
assigned definite military position, corresponding with
that which years since accorded by law 10 the
medical officers OF the army.
In connsxon with the meeting of this association.
the following paragraphs appear somewhat significant.
We extract them from the pages Of the Philadelphia
Medical Examiner, being portion of an able editorial
review OF the report OF the army board which convened
in this city in October last take into consideration
sundry questions Of rank. precedence, and command
among officers OF the army After examining, ssriam,
the sections Of proposed law submitted by the board
with their report, the reviewer thus concludes
''The ninth section proposes repeal the laws which
confer rank medical officers but deprive those
now in service OF their present rank All officers hereafter
appointed In the medical department OF the army to be
isoned without any rank position whatever If
the medical officers in The army retain the rank
which the law gives them without injury
tho SERVICE il is absurd suppose that those hereafter
appointed cannot enjoy the rank without risk of de
ment to the discipline OF the army.
" For the various propositions of this report
whatever assigned but have the protests the
officers against them That Of Surgeon Mower speaks for
itself, and is commended the special attention Of the
medical profession generally the members of which should
give their influence in obtaining and securing for their
brethren in the army and Just position II is hoped
that physician in the United States will cast his in
favor of candidate for the presidency other political
office who Is known to be hostile preudiced against
the Just claims Of medical be protected by law like
other citizens. The mental capacity and impartiay of
may be doubted IL he is found regard physicians
of inferior caste or less respectable of
vocation. Believing that the claims of medical officers
the army and navy to fixed military position founded
upon reason, and with democratic princi-
pies, will watch the movement making, and from
time time record it's progress, without however, opening
our columns to controversial argument the SUBJ
jsct."
