The producers news. [volume] (Plentywood, Mont.) 1918-1937, 1926-08-13

The chiropraciOr, has facts, to pre-
sent to the public and he KNOWS,
this hence the advertising and giving
the truth to the public through the
space OF the papers, and it will be
noted the chlropractOr pays for his
advertising, because, he is ethical
enough not, to gain publicity via the
free, publicity route.
"The chiropractor is classed as I'M
ethical because he tells the truth. he
does not fear what he has to sell.
ne knows, 1t gets the people well, and
after all other known methods or
healing have failed. We as chiro-
practOrs candidly confess. that if, pro-
crossing is un-ethical- getting cut
OF the rut, mentally, is un-ethical-if.
telling the truth is un-ethical-if. get
ting the people well, after all other
methods have failed to do so, is I'M
ethical, then we confess, and an
nounce to the entire population in
this universe, and mere of they care
to know vi, that we are, un-ethical.
eve do not shun the truth, and
hide behind the shield of ethics to
do 1T. We, are ever willing, eager
and anxious to face the facts, and
grant the public the freedom, which
our constitution grants, to gel well
an way they, may choose.
"The chiropractor knows, the mean
ing of the word ethics, but, he also
knows, the meaning of the word, CO.
operation. We are highly in favor
of cooperating with any profession.
that also knows, the meaning eff the
word cO-Opera. ion. Personally, I am
very much in favor of the suggestion
advanced by the Producers News, and
by DR.. York, namely to cooperate
and make it a community hospital,
not only in name, but in reality. But
as we have a community hospital, at
least in name, at Outlook, why not
have the county take over both of
the hospitals, the one at PlentywOod
and the one at Outlook, then this
county would have one hospital on
each railroad and the sick, regardless
of weather conditions, could get to
either one of the Wo hospitals.
ct would certainly be a benefit to
the public to have these hospitals TAX
en- over by the county. Put them on
a business basis. Have the county
hire the nurses to give the safe ser
vice o all concerned, allow each and
every licensed practitioner to take his
patients to these hospitals, the pa
tents to pay for their roms and the
doctors to pay for their rooms if they
use any. Have just one price o all
concerned. If any of the surgeons
care to use the operating rooms well
and good. Allow them the privilege
Of doing SO but charge them a reason
able amount, say twenty-five to fifty
dollars for each operation. This
would bring a steady income to the
hospitals, at least for a few years to
come, then with the room rents, it
would put the hospitals on a paying
basis.
"Scme one may object and say,
The surgeons would not pay for the
operating rooms I feel certain that
they would not object as it is a known
fact that the surgeon must have an
operation room to perform his opera
ton in as it is impossible for him to
perform an operation out on the
prairie or in the hind seat of a Ford
fer the germs may carry off he vic
tim or devour same before the ex-
pensive operation had been comp
pleted.
eff the county would take over the
hospitals, put them on a paying basis
make them a real business PROPOSE
ton then the people in the commun-
| ity supporting these hospitals would
not have to worry and fret about
how to keep the doors open, so that
a few may benefit from the proceeds
of the same. Then the communities
would not have to get out every either
Friday and beg for a cake, a pie, {
chicken, a fish and a dill pickle, sell
same and give the proceeds to theil

stop the tax payers money now do.
mated to these hospitals, in the name
of room rent, from being benefit
to just few. AS it is today every
taxpayer, whether he or she is op

must support and uphold an institu-
ton that is a benefit to just the chos

eff the county would own the hos
