Advertising Deal
By Doctors, Editors
Defended By ANA
By Nathan Robertson

WASHINGTON UPA) - The American
Medical Association sees nothing wrong in the
new advertising policy adopted by Minnesota
doctors to establish closer relationship with
editors who feel they cannot carry organized
medicines story without compensation"
Glenn Whitaker the AMAs highly paid
publicity director, made that clear at lunch
con with the press here last week In fact he
seemed to think the disclosure of the negotla-
tions betwten doctors and editors in Minnesota
for closer relations was 'un- American" and "a
definite attempt to undermine advertising by
people who don't believe In our way of life.
At the same time, just to be safe, Whitaker
wanted it understood that the ANA had moth
ing to do with what happened in Minnesota"
He branded as absolutely false" all charges
that organized medicine had tried to buy news
paper influence.
The Minneapolis Morning Tribune took
similar attitude toward the disclosure by La
bor Press Associates, 1t said charges of bribery
and secret deal were preposterous distor-
tons and that such accusations had "all the
earmarks of deliberate campaign to smear
editors opposing Mr., Trumans health scheme"
With such expressions of innocence COM
ing from both parties to the alleged DEAL the
public will have to make its own judgment of
the facts. Here is an attempt to re-state the
indisputable facts in the case, without editor
ializing or drawing conclusions
On April D, statewide meeting OF doctors
and editors in Minnesota was held at the invi:
tation of the Minnesota State Medical Associa-
ton, which was attempting TO work out
closer understanding with the press in its fight
on President Trumans health insurance pro-
posal, in accordance with directions from ANA
headquarters AT this conference there was
some discussion of advertising by doctors-but
just what took place is not recorded publicly
One editor who attended the conference told
LPA 1t was sparkplugged by top ANA pub
Hcity man and the whole atmosphere of the
conference was "disgustingly venal."
AT its annual convention in May the Min
nesota Medical Association approved resolu-
tion aimed at closer relations with the press
After whereas declaring that "one criticism
frequently heard from the press is that the
medical profession expects the press to main
tain the entire burden of indirect publicity
from the doctor to the public without remuner-
aton,' the resolution approved advertising by
doctors and medical societies.
The doctors and editors have since argued
that there was nothing new" in this-that
some doctors have always carried professional
advertising. But the public has always under
stood that the medical profession opposed ad-
vertising to protect the public against quacks.
apparently, the press did too because in June
tne Minnesota Editorial Association issued to
the editors an announcement of the medical
socetys action, calling it "one of the most
significant Items ever carried in the Bulletin

Running Nation Is
A Full Time Task
BY Bradford v. Carter
LPA ColumniSt

A MERICANS boast that they like plain
n speaking" So, says the editor of the Lon
don Sunday Pictorial to the people of Britain
And in that spirit he has answered current at
tacks on the British by u. S. daily newspapers,
Because it's not likely to get printed in many
of the dailies Qncludng the Chicago Tribune)
which have been spreading ISLANDERS about
Britain, this columnist would like to give you
these quotes
Here" the London paper says, "are the
specific charges the American British-haters
have made against us, and here are our replies:
= "1.-Our Yankee slanderers say that the
whole of Britain's plight can be blamed on
: Britains Labor Government This is arrant
clap-trap Two World Wars-neither of which
reached your American shores and both of
which benefited your economy--have drained
the lifeblood out Of Britain. Now, with Ameri-
) can aid and our own prodigious effort, we are
busily pumping the lifeblood back"
much of our plant is miserably obsolete;
how could we replace it in the war years? Our
export trade was thrown to the winds that
we could concentrate on war production. The
bulk of our foreign investments were hurled
into the common cause in 1940 and 194l. We
emerged victorious but bankrupt"

the practice of medicine, and of protecting the
public against the Establishments and false
claims of takers. Yet, so intense has been the
pressure on the doctors from their lobby head
quarters that they willingly sacrificed the very
ethics of their own profession in order to
maintain the flow of free publicity in the col
umns of the press"
These are the undisputed facts of the case,
and the comments of others on them. Readers
can reach their own conclusions. From our
own somewhat prejudiced viewpoint, it looks
to us as though Paterson and Sen. Murray are
right-and the doctors and editors are just
trying to talk themselves out of bad mess.
We place no more confidence in Whitakers
flat denials than we do in some of the flgures
he presented to the press-such as those claim
ing that most members of the California Ply
sicians Service have incomes of less than
$4,000 year, which he cited as proof that vol
untary insurance can provide for low-income
families.
But more important than anything else,
we believe the public has a right to judge these
facts for itself. So far most of the public has
not had that chance, because the press has pre-
ferred to do its own judging of its own gullt'
and not let the people know the facts

This was Confidential Bulletin" marked
mot for publication" The news was announced
under headline reading Medical Profession
Eases Ethical Restrictions on Advertising.
This bulletin quoted the state medical associa-
ton as saying the editors at the first meeting
with the doctors in April had asked for re
ciprocal arrangement that would benefit ooth
professions The editors were quoted as say
ing they were perfectly willing to carry the
story of medicine as private enterprise" but
felt that the physicians "have responsibility
to alleviate the financial burden connected
with publishing local newspapers"
After LPA carried the story of this series
of developments, Chat Paterson of the Com
mittee for the Nations Health, which is cam
paigning for President Truman's health insur-
ance proposal, issued press release calling
the action of the doctors AN open bribe to the
press of the state"
Later on the Senate floor, Senator James
E. Murray Cd, Mont) used the same terms in
describing the incident which he warned
would shock" the Senators. Commenting
further, Murray said

on solid facts.
It's always interesting to
watch big business change It's
line to meet the needs of new
anti-union situations.
For past year or two, big
business and its spokesmen
have been screaming against
strike. They used strike men
ace" as major weapon to pass
Taft Hartley, and to prevent
its repeal this year.
Now the line is changing,
but quick. Many steel indus
try spokesmen suddenly look
benignly on strikes as best
way of settling disputes: One
of 'em was c. M. White, head
of Republic. He thought idea
of strike would be just dandy.
Not very surprisingly, most
business controlled neWspa-
pers didn't find words of criti-
cism for Brother" White -
though when unions are forced
to strike, papers are usually
the first to point with horror.

u. S. Senate is so far be-
hind in its work it'll be diff
cult for any Senator ever to
accuse any worker of "feath-
erbedding." Senate's list of
up-coming bills is long as an
elephants ear.
House members, little bet
ter off so far as schedule goes,
have gone into recess for about
month. Here are some OF
items on Senate's unfinished
business list: appropriations,
wage-hour, displaced persons,
reciprocal trade agreements,
middle-income housing aids,
removal of oleomargarine tax,
passage of anti-polltax bill.
House, on other hand, has
flubbed aid-to-education bill,
social security Improvements,
many civil rights measures.
Both sides of Congress fell
down on Taft-Hartley repeal,
health insurance, farm pro-
gram, tax reforms.
