DOCTORS PROTEST
ATTACKS MADE
BY K. K. K. NURSE

To the Editor: We the under
signed members of the medical
profession Of Portland, hereby
voice an emphatic protest against
the campaign Of vilification con-
ducted by certain woman lee
turer and her associates-direct-
ed against the Sisters OF Provi-
dence and st. vincent's hospital,
Portland.
Our daily contact for years
with the sisters and their hospit
al has thoroughly familiarized us
with their lofty standard OF per-
sonal morals, their unimpeach-
able character and efficiency. MOI
being of the Catholic faith, we
have no ends to serve except the
highest standards of our profes
sion: as medical men, we value
our own reputation and integri-
ty too highly to be actively associ-
ated with any organization or in
stitution upon which serious re-
Elections could truthfully be cast.
Therefore we regard this Wifi
cation Of the sisters and their
institution as a reflection upon
ourselves.
We denounce as the crudest and
most malicious form OF falsehood
statements Ike these: That the
sisters are cruelty treated by
their superiors; that they are en-
slaved; that they are deprived OF
physical liberty; that there are
moral Irregularities Of any kind
connected with their sisterhood
or their private lives.
The untiring labors and count
less benefactions Of the Sisters OF
Providence and their hospital (st.
yincent's) during the long term
OF devoted service in Portland
merit for them the deepest graft
tude from our citizens. These
should deprecate and denouncc
the libelous falsehoods and Sian
derous insinuations, which the
above referred to ''ex-nun lec-
turer" (Lucretia or Elizabeth
Schoffen) has been disseminating
