THE "ExPERT" WITNESS.

A WRITER In a recent issue OF the
II 1Iedico-Legal Bulletin INDUCES in
some sharp criticism OF the "expert"
witness but ne fails TO offer any So
luton of a problem that has vexed
courts since expert testimony became
a factor in civil and criminal proceed
ings. This writer tells Of an incident
in an Illinois court. One OF the most
I prominent physicians in the state had
been called as a witness for the state
and had answered a hypothetical Ques-
ton TO the satisfaction of the prose-
cution. Then the attorney for the de-
Tense asked.
isn't it fair to assume that If had
money TO pay the physicians for their
time that I could step out here in the
city and secure half q dozen compe-
tent physicians, who, in answer to the
Hypothetical question put by the dis
triCt attorney, would give me exactly
the opposite answer" The witness re-
Piled; "I think it is Thus he, in some
measure, impeached his own testimony,
for he admitted that plenty of compe-
tent men might be found who would
say he was wrong. The question is,
what is TO be done I'm such cases?
Are we to believe that a physician
for a fee, can be persuaded to testify
exactly as am attorney desires him TO
testify? That is. does the expert side

the largest sum for his services? If
this is true, of what value is the tes-
timony of any expert2 1t seems to US
that there is a solution of the prob
lem. Ordinary individuals are subject
TO the service of subpoenas in an cases.
When the court says they must ap-
pear and testify they must come or
show some good season why they are
unable to do so. The same rule should
apply to so-called experts.
1t is true. perhaps, that the time Of

the term seems TO be d very apt one.
But we do not believe that all experts
