Harvard Physician Attacks
'Standpatism' of American
Association.
II the Associated Press

~ the Associated Press
NEW YORK, April "A prominent
doctors charge that the American
Medical Association is dominated by
an attitude CLOSE to standpatism"
opened a fresh schism today in the
Nations medical ranks.
The charge was made last night by
DR.. James H. Means of the Harvard
Medical School in his annual address
as president of the American College
Of Physicians.
His attack was the most fortnight
made upon the association, profess
sional governing body of 10000 Amer
can physicians, since differences of
opinion arose in the association
year ago over State and Federal aid
in medical care
The 1000 members of the College of
Physicians, one of the most influential
American medical societies, also be-
long to the parent association
THE behavior of the American
Medical Association is political" DR..
Means asserted. TT is partisan be-
havior"
He declared spokesmen for the as
sociation, like Jove on High Olympus"
were hurling "thunderbolts of wrath
at all who differ with orthodox doc
trine."
DR.. Means called for development
OF enlightened opposition within the
democracy OF the national association"
to develop new leaders who can find
the way to solution of some of the
problems of medical service which now
haffle both the profession and the
public"
His accusation that the associations
membership was "apathetic and in
articulate because it has no issue, no
platforms set up to vote for" brought
an immediate reply from DR.. Morris
Fishbein. editor of the journal of the
American Medical Association.
DR.. Fishbein, In Chicago, said DR..
Means was typical of those who stand
outside and criticize without them
selves putting shoulder to the wheel
to help"
If he had any real knowledge of
the present activities of the associa-
ton, which include Nationwide in
ventory of medical needs and a de-
termination of the means for satisfy
ing them, he could not have spoken as
he did," he said

French and British circles were
alarmed today by Chinese reports
that a Japanese cruiser has ar
rived at the Paracel Islands and
that IS Japanese warships are
standing by off Hollow, on Hal
nan Island.
The reports, of grave interna-
tional import, closely followed
Frances occupation of the Para

Paris that France will act similar
ly if Japan lands troops on Hal
nan.
Hollow controls the Straits of
Hainan, the narrow sea passage

the Gulf of Tonkin, Frances
commercial avenue between Indo-
China and China and Japan
