To all the apparent answers to the
question: How shall the United States
reach certain other parts of the world
as quickly, as easily as some OF Its
neighbors? there are practical objec-
tions.
Build its own cable system? Exclu-

ton problems make that impracticable.
Go in for the wireless which will soon
supplant the cables anyway? Some
body got that idea. before we did. ob.
stacles similar to those in the way OF
an all American cable system bristle in

and wireless by mutual agreement! But
II we could stop thinking of cables and
the wireless as separate systems and
think of them only as parts of universal

see how impractical that suggestion is.

perfect plans for utilizing New York s
great teaching body and vast amount Of
clinical material; third. to establish
working affiliation between all New
York hospitals, medical schools, labora
tories and public health institutions for
teaching purposes; fourth, to create
large medical foundation fund to meet
expenses.
Dean Patterson S criticism that Phil
adelphia possesses ample medical tradi-
ions but is short on energy is borne
out by recent medical history in this
city. Not a few medical teachers and
scientific men of high standing have
been lured away from Philadelphia by
better offers elsewhere.
Large money gifts for medical re.
search have gone to other cities which
could have been obtained by Phiadel-
phia had an organization existed here
for their utilization. The recent clos
ing of the Henry Phipps Institute,
which had made an international repu-
tation in tuberculosis research work, for
lack of funds, is an example.
Nothing has been done thus far"
SAID Dean Patterson, ito assure Phila-
delphia the place she deserves in the
medical world. There is a great need
for post graduate schools. Thousands
OF young doctors are leaving the army
and feel that they would like to carry
their medical education little further
before returning to private practice.
get letters every day inquiring about
post graduate courses
1T is great pity that Philadelphia
does not establish post graduate
school on big scale. Such school
should take in every teaching insttu-
tlon, every hospital, every teacher. 1t
should not be restricted to any one in
situation. 1t should embrace every
teacher of medicine, irrespective of his
other affiliations.
No one existing institution would be
capable of running both an undergrad
uate and graduate school. The two
present very different problems.
There are lots of hospitals here with
unlimited clinical material. Some of
the most eminent practitioners in the
country are Philadelphians and would
supply an ample teaching staff. A
post graduate school could be estab-
lished that would in no way rival the
work of our existing medical colleges.
"We should have such school for
Philadelphia. 1t would require money.
Organization of the movement would
require the services of several good
men, who would have to be paid. But
there is not a reason in the world why
such a project should not be conceived
and executed in Philadelphia.
DIR. f. Y. Dercum, widely known
neurologist, who knows the great
teaching institutions of France, Ger
many and Austria al. first hand, agrees
with Dean Patterson that something
should be done to bring to Philadelphia
the recognition due the atty as the
country's foremost medical center.
