SURGERY AND THE PUBLIC.
Interesting Facts Given by DR.. Maur-
ice H. Richardson at Harvard.

A talk, the substance of which is OF IN
terest to nearly every one, directly or IN,
directly, was delivered at the Harvard
Medical school the other day by DR..
Maurice IL. Richardson. 1t had to do
with surgery in relation to the surgeon
patients, and it contained some facts that
all should know and remember.
One OF DIR. Richardson's points was the
exaggerated ideas of the general public OF
the danger of surgical operations. This,
he said, lis perfectly natural, because the
layman cannot distinguish between the
peris of the disease and the risks OF the
operation. The mortality following oOera.
ton is almost entirely that OF the disease
for which the operation Is undertaken.
Thus the mortality from acute appendl-
citis results generally, not from the opera.
ton, but from peritonitis, yet many OF
the deaths are attributed to the opera
ton.
In detail, Dr. Richardson spoke of OPP
erations for appendicitis and cancer.
When the appendicitis patient is in per

the patients recover. Out of l43 opera
tions in the City hospital during one year,
not one of the patients died The NOR

where the operation Is not performed till

Child Labor.

The discussion OF the Beveridge child
labor bill has shown how easily a sound
constitutional principle can be stretched
to cover national crime. Child labor is
a horrible fact no one will attempt to
defend 1t or to excuse it. The states
have tried to deal with the subject but
the manufacturers OF one state use the
child labor in another state as an argu-
ment against any law drawn for the pro,
lection of the children, and the argument
is usually successful. Senator Beveridge's
bill mvokes the aid of congress which is
supreme IN matters of interstate COM
merce. His bill recognizes the right of
the state to permit the employment of
babies, if it will, so long as the product
Is sold within the state, but it recognizes
the right of the whole people, acting
through congress, to fix the terms on
which such products can enter interstate
commerce. Is this not a dangerous now.
