and should have been conducted In
school with the assistance Of the
teachers to expedite the procedure.
It would then have accomplished
what it could not accomplish under
the circumstances and it would not
have played havoc with the dignity
of our profession, would not have put
any physician in false position,
would not have ruined carpets, .furni-
ture, calcimining, etc., in many Of
fees, as presence Of a wild mob win.
81 am fully convinced that this
mistake would not have happened il
the school board and commissioners
of health had made a proper inVes-
tigation in time to sound the feeling
of the profession in general, instead
of going into executive session with
a few high-bTowed representatives Of
the Chicago Medical society who are
specializing in their work ard there
fore not interested in deYising a
workable plan for the general pro
fession.
81 am not alone in my sentiment
and feel that the press in general has
not dealt fairly with the medical pro-
fession, which consists Of many
handwriting men, often undergrad,
especially in the poorer districts,
where the greatest number Of chill
dren exist. The proceedings adopt
ed by the school board and commits
sioner Of health amount to nothing
less than CONSUMPTION a condition
which is not even advocated at pres
ent for our national defense and
which is not even ATTEMPTED in the
despised European monarchies with
out due enactment of law. We are
not ripe for, nor in love with, the
methods of Russian czardom.

protested against the order OF the
school board and the eom'r of health
concerning the examination of
school children free Of charge by pri-
vate physicians.
The protest is voiced in a letter
sent The Day Book by DR.. c. Bert
schinger, 1910 N. Robey, who per
sonaIly examined 900 children. It
also carries the signature Of nine
other physicians. This is the letter:
81 must say that the plan adopted
by the commissioner of health and
the school board and the committee
of the Chicago Medical society was
very hasty and ill-advised. How poor
" it was managed is shown the fact
that not until the second day after
the opening of schools were there on
hand printed blanks furnished by the
city, and that 80 per cent of the Ger
tifcates had-to be either written by
ourselves or signed on blanks that
we ordered from our own printers in
order to be able to cope with the sit
uation.
"NoW don't think that we physi-
clans should have charged for a serv-
ice that was forced on the public by
well-meaning but incompetent Off
GERS, although a good many Of my
fellow practitioners argued that this
should be done and acted according
", which threw a greater burden
upon such as myself, but I protest
emphaticaIy against a method
which gives such a liberal education
in pauperism that is already the ply
sician's curse and protest against
the school board and other officials
of this great city adopting a plan by
which the corporate city Of Chicago
appears in the role of paUper.
From no other profession does the
city expect free service. Unions get
their demands. Attorneys in the en-
ploy of the city on any special case
