A New Type of Ambassador.

DR.. Adolf Lorenz Of Vienna, the
worlds most famous exponent of
bloodless surgery. is a new type Of
am mbassador.
The doctor announces that he is not
to go into practice in America or ac-
cept patients. but will devote his time
and skill to the correction of certain
types Of malformation in the little
poor children of the charity hospitals
and. If possible. to bringing American
and Austrian surgeons into friendly
contact once more.
And he undertook this mission to
the United States in order to render
some expression of gratitude to the
American people for what they have
done to relieve the unspeakable dis
tress in his native land.
The incident Of DR.. Lorenz's mis-
sion serves to remind us of the better
influences that are finding expression
in a disordered world, and how sun
dered friendships may be restored and
the healthful processes of good will
Not less admirable is the ethical
standard exhibited by DR.. Lorenz. He
might obtain scores Of wealthy pa
tients and quickly replenish his
wrecked fortunes in the United States.
for 1t will be remembered when he
was in America before he was offered
numerous cases by wealthy people in
all parts of the country.
But, in his view, to accept pay cases
| would defeat his true mission. which
is to show as far as he can how deep
ly Americas kindness to the starving
children of his own country Is appre-
ciated. So his work will be confined
to malformations in children OF the
poor in charity hospitals who are un-
able to secure the scientific treat
ment which he, as tho outstanding
scientist in bloodless surgery, IS 80
