My Neighbor Says:

II your delphinium bed appears
to be diseased, take up plants,
wash earth from roots and set in
a sunny location, putting half a
shovel Of coal ashes on the crown
OF each plant. This is all that
is necessary to make delphinium
grow.
The best place for a cake while
baking is in the center of the

Never allow cold water to run
into an aluminium pan while it is

TRUTH SURE TO WIN

Professor Robert A. Millkian, phy-
sicist, fears the effects of present efforts
to turn world thoughts from facts to cir
rationalism." Speaking recently in Copen-
hagen, Denmark, the famous scientist de-
elared that not for three hundred years
has the world faced a reaction like the
present when mankind is told to return to
superstition and irrationaIism and against
science"
Our comment is based upon short
newspaper article and we have not had
the pleasure of reading Professor Mill
kan's entire address. We are not aware
of the exact nature of the forces which he
warns against but. undoubtedly. his re-
marks were based upon a broad survey of
present world trends. His warning is
timely even though it seems unnecessary to
any rational human being. The world,
however, has witnessed some crazy be-
havior in the years which have passed
and some of the same foolishneSs is APP
parent today. In the long run irrational
ism cannot hope to overcome the truth of
science and no system of human endeavor
will successfully stand in opposition to the
truth.
This does not mean that anyone
should accept every hypothesis advanced
by specializing scientists, because some
times the theories fail to develop into
facts. 1t does mean, however, that once
science has established a fact that intelli-
gent people should remove from their
minds those thoughts which conflict with
the truth regardless of how great may be
the sentiment attached to them.

OUR DOCTORS READY TO HELP

Interesting is the action of the Amer
lean Medical Association in adopting a re-
port placing all of the facilities of organ
lied medicine at the disposal of the Gov
eminent in whatever effort it may under
take to bring adequate medical care within
the reach of the American people.
The House of Delegates endorsed the
principle that the health of the people Is
the direct concern of government and that
national public health policy directed to-
wards all groups of the population should
be formulated. While the action of the
medical body reflects passive endorse
ment of the proposal and leaves the initia-
tive to the Government. it is an encourage
ing sign. Certainly. it evidences realiza-
ton on the part of medical men of the need
for some Improvement in the present sys-
tenn under which advanced medical care is
not available to large percentage of our
population and reaches another large group
of people at cost which is almost pro-
hibitive.
Readers of The Citizen may recall
some early discussions in these columns
about this subject. We have watched the
trend of the medical profession in recent
years, during which time the family physi-
clan has taken an economic whipping,
while specialists reaped relatively high re-
wards. We believe it to be fact today
that most students of medicine have aban-
doned any idea of becoming a family ply
stefan and that the medical schools are
turning out specialists who have been at
tracted by the higher compensation which
comes in their chosen fields.
Doctors who oppose state medicine
and wish to retain private control of the
medical profession probably realize the
danger involved in such a situation.
Basically the family phsyician is the back
bone of the private practice of medicine,
although the type threatens to disappear
because of nill-proportioned distribution
of the compensation earned by various
practitioners. One reason for this dis
parity in income. in our opinion, has been
the apparent hostility of the profession to-
ward split-fees, which merely means that
the family physician sending a patient tc
a specialist would receive a part of the
compensation now going entirely to the ex-
pert.
Quick adoption of the 'spilt fee'' idea
coupled with ready Acknowledgement of
its justice by medical associations would
do much to restore the income of family
physicians, thus encouraging medical men
to give their life in this field. Without
some such inducement. we forsee an in
creasing scarcity of general practitioners
until point is reached when the Govern
ment will have to step in and regulate the
entire practice of medicine
