NJ, Drake, r. ". for three years

recently began work as field nurse
with the Iowa tuberculosis Associa-

DOCTORS OPPOSE vENEREAL ACT
Statute Would Result in Neglect OF
Treatment and Increase Disease.

Special to Times Republican.
Dubuque. March 10.--Thc Dubuque
County Medical Society at it's next
meeting which will be held Tuesday
night. will 20 on record as opposed TO
the pending resolution before the
Thjrty-fifth general assembly of Iowa
providing for the handling Of venercal
cases. The portions OF the bill which
the local phyhicians believe will cause
it's defeat are:
Provision for reporting all cases
coming to the attention of physicians,
using the name of the person afflicted.
Provision for submitting a report on
the case twenty-four hours after it is
brought to their attention.
In the opinion OF members of the
Dubuque county society the first pro
vision mentioned will cause persons
suffering with social disease to neglect
them knowingly in preference to los
ing their names by going to a physi-
clan for treatment. Home treatment
of such cases-a situation which will
prove dangerous-wil be a result OF
such an attitude and instead of solv-
ing the problem of spread of social
diseases. suc. law as proposed would
| abet it, they declare.
The second mentioned provision, the
physicians say. is impractical Of full
| fillment.
| They declare that incipient cases of
| social disease can not he diagnosed in
that short time. They further argue
that ii sometimes takes several days
ana weeks to determine the true iden
titE of some social disease cases.
The provision in tho proposed law
for fine and Imprisonment for those
causing spread of social disease
develops n situation. the local physi-
clans state. which would create havoc
and mhappiness among families. They
claim that the ever-busy divorce
courts will be working over time and
the situation as relates to social vices
will not be materially improved. on
the contrary, they say, II would be as
gravated by lack of CO. operation from
the persons afflicted.
