DR.. Alderman Defends Board oil
Visitors For Their Change
In Views.

Charlottesville. Va, July S.
Declaring that "the medical man
who proudly holds in 1921 the
same theory of the origin of yell
low fever. that he held in 1900,
is consistent but dangerous"
DR.. Edwin A. Alderman, presi-
dent of the University of Virgin
Ia, scores the recent publicity
given by the Committee for the
Adoptions of the Report of the
Medical Commission to the fact
that in 1918 the Board of WISH
tors of the University favored
Richmond as a site for the med
zeal school.
The Rector and Visitors of
the University of Virginia in
1918 were acting in the light OF
facts and conditions then facing
them and on the then generally
believed hypothesis that clinical
material was not available save
in large cities, stated DR.. Alder.
man i'll his address before the
recent meeting of the Board Of
Visitors of the University when
that body overwhelmingly favor.
ed the retention of the medical
school at Charlottesville.
These eight years have been
the largest forward movement in
medical education in genera tions.
The facts and conditions have
utterly changed. The value oil
direct University connection has
become paramount. Our own
University hospital has grown
into power; small cities have de.
yeloped satisfactory clinics; and
the point of view of those who
really study medical problems
has eliminated in the impressive
example of Vanderbilt Univer.
slty referred to below. It is now
1921. The authorities of the
University of Virginia are now
acting in the light of present
conditions and knowledge. To
follow any other course would be
for them to substitute stubborn
consistency for intelligent re-
sponslbllity, and this is a fatal
procedure in a world of growth.
The medical man who proudly
holds in 1921 the same theory Of
the origin of yellow fever for ex-
ample, that he held in 1900, is
consistent but dangerous"
