COWARDICE KILLED BILL AIMED
AT THE DREADFUL BLACK PLAGUE

physician could not report cases O,
social disease because of his Hip
pocratic OATH" She simply asked
What becomes of a physician's
Hippocratic oath when patien,
has smallpox"
| Never mind about the divorce
courts and never mind about the
Hippocratic oath.
The first thing of all is to fac
the situation as it is, to admit the
facts, to let into dark places the
white light Of truth; to stop lying
about it to ourselves and to each
other.
The legislators of Iowa were
afraid. They were towards. They
wouldn't even talk about it. Yes.
but they are no different from the
rest of us. We are all in the mire
together-men and women as indi-
viduals and as members of the
community; the church, the meG:-
cal profession, the press.
All are guilty-either of ignor,
ance of conditions or of the moral
cowardice that seals the lips. The
consequences of this combination
of ignorance and cowardice are Wis
tied upon the guiltless no less than
upon the guilty.
Why should succeeding genera
tions of boys and girls be per-
mitted to destroy themselves for
lack of a little wholesome knowl-
edge

such belief is not only taught In
