SHORTAGE OF DOCTORS
Health Board Issues Public Health
Cntcchism to Aid in PrOtcctipA
Public From IIIneks.

The shortage of physicians in Nir-
ginia can only be met. in the judg-
mcnt OF the State Board of Health.
by decreasing the demand for the SER
vices of physicians, and this. can only
be accomplished by the prevention of
disease. TO assist in this work of
prevention, the board has issued new
wartime health manual. containing
the essential rules for good health.
The application of these rules, the
board declares. will aid thcEpeoplc in
overcoming the effects OF the shortage
OF physicians. Nsn'
This shortage has reached serious
proportions. In answer to the call of
the President. hundreds of Virginia
doctors have abandoned their practice
and are now III government service.
Before tho end of the year. 1t is be-
lieved. the total number of physicians
who have left private practice in the
state 10 enter the army and the navy
will amount to nearly 400. While the
absence of city physicians has not yet
been generally felt. the response OF
country physicians TO the call to the
colors has left many Virginia, coml
muniticS entirely without doctors.
'Manifestly." says the board, 1.-The
physicians who remain will be over
worked. Some of them already are.
ana by their own illness are putting.
still further burdens OIL those who
remain in practice. To relieve this,
nothing can be done that will mean
more than to reduce the preventable
diseased. These are usually computed
1t one-third the total practice of ply.
sicians. and If the communicable ills
can be reduced, much less eliminated
the shortage can in some measure be
offset.
The encouraging aspect Of the
situation is that preventive measures
are SO simple that they can be eTec-
lively applied by the average woman in
the home. Even the common colds.
the grippe and like ills can be made
far less frequent than they usually
are by the application of common
sense principles Of prevention"
/ These principles have been summed
up in the wartime manual of the
board. which is styled the public
Health CateChism" This is q pamphlet
of thirty-two pages. profuscly Illus
trated. and covering practically all the
usual communicable ma!adics. Copies
of this bulletin can be had free upon
request.

back upon. Orphans Courts are practi-
cally non-existent in other States. as
have said.
We may get some light from analoeies
offered US by private corporations. Perhaps
the most perfectly conducted corporation
in the country is the STANDARD OIL This
we may admit whether we like or dislike
its morals and general purposes. Let US
conceive for a moment that instead of its
local attorneys being named by the gen.
eral counsel. who is himself directly re-
sponsible to the board of directors. and Of
its State MANAGERS named by a general
manager, they were elected by assem-
blages of stockholders in the several States.
Instant consideration would show US that
the desires of the corporation as a whole
could not be made effective: that the ad-
ministration would Immediately become in
efficient and expensive. The thing which
we would condemn in the Standard Oil
Company as foolish to the last degree. we
accept as entirely proper within the limits
OF the State of Maryland in corporation
of which have before remarked. we are
all stockholders and in whose success our
very existence is involved.
The people Of the State are sufferers
from the maladministration Of the Law
through our senior courts and their off,

ways. This subject deserves special con-
sideratiOn and will receive it in another
