Compulsory medical inspection,
like compulsory vaccination, would
prove dead letter to those children
whose parents objected to it-they
could keep them from school. In
states having compulsory education
and compulsory vaccination. it has
been decided in some of them that
the compulsory education law is null
and void to those children and par
ents who object TO compulsory vac
cination. But Observation-Disclosures are
going so far as to demand the en-
trance of their children to the pub
lie schools while setting vaccination
at naught. An immense case of this
kind is now min st. Louis. The
Philadelphia Item t215,000 subscrib-
ers). the Columbus Medical Journal,
and others, say education and public
schools had better be abolished rath-
Ell than witness any further horrors
from medical inroads in the public
schools.
Virginia needs neither compulsory
medical inspection nor compulsory
education. The nefarious Owen bill,
it is now conceded. has had it's root in
compulsory education. A certain
class of doctors have thought that
they would pattern after the teachers
and have grist brought to their mill
by compulsory law. The biggest tight
in the history OF Congress is 10 occur
this winter over this bill. There is
every probability that it will be killed.
Tremendous forces are arrayeC
against it. After 1t is killed the AM
erican people should at once eXpunge
from their statutes all other compul-
sorry laws. that no stepping stones
for future bother may be i'll evidence.
