the various states of the union, he will
face swarms of protesting physicians
They seek annulment or modification
of department order, which is based
on ruling by former Atty. Gen. Tim
othy S. Hogan. The essence of the
ruling and order predicated upon it
is that it is not lawful for insurance
companies in Ohio to write so-called
physicians defense insurance" The
policies that have been written allow
indemnity to physicians from insur-
ance companies when they are sued
for malpractice. The point has been
made against this form of insurance
that it is in probable contravention
of public policy as permitting insur-
ance against lack of skill or careless
ness. The physicians, however, are
numerous who believe that the policies
are necessary to protect them against
annoyance and persecution in suits.
