DORIS FLEEsON

As every doctor knows. the
authority in medicine is the
literature.
It takes precedence over any
one mans opinion, be he doc
tor, reporter. politician or
White House press secretary.
One of the great medical
libraries of the world is the
Armed Forces Medical Library
in Washington. Its collection
Of texts, surgical manuals and
medical reports on ileitis is
distinctly bearish in tone.
At practically every point it
contradicts the "think-noth-
ing-of-it" mood which the
! White House seeks to induce
regarding President Eisenhow-
er's operation for ileitis 10
days ago.
Instead, 1t depicts q chronic,
facilitating, often progressive,
disease for which the cause is
unknown. Therapy for ileitis
is repeatedly described as sup
portive, not curative"
DR.. Burrill B. Groin, who
gave ileitis his name, is quoted
optimistically by White House
Press Secretary Hagerty. Hag-
-erty argues that since ileitis is
usually a disease of young
adults, the grim figures about
its recurrence do not apply to
persons in the Presidents age
group. The President is SIS.
DR.. Groin is certainly some
what SUMMER in his view of
ileitis than most. But in The
Journal Of the American Medi-
cal Association for Nov. 81,
1854, DR.. Groin and Henry D.
Janowitz, under the title, Re-
Elections on Regional Ileitis,
Twenty Years Later, wrote:
THE cause of this disease
remains unknown -.
Clinical aspects. The dis
ease occurs in persons Of all
ages and both sexes and it APP
pears to have worldwide Incl
/. dence.

Doctors Simple Statement Distorted
In Buildup Of Propaganda Charge

r
physicians went out Of their
way to instigate a discussion
Of a political nature and that
they. indeed. passed Judgment
on whether or not he ought
to run.
Actually the only question
asked was confined to the
medical aspects. It was solely
an inquiry as to whether the
kind of illness the President
encountered was in itself a
deterrent factor to the accept
ance Of a second nomination.
Plainly the doctors were not
asked to answer whether it
was wise for the President to
take a chance or whether the
strain of the job might be
dangerous to him or to resolve
any Of the collateral issues
which Mr.. Eisenhower alone
can decide.
The one question asked of
the doctors. in effect, was
whether this type Of illness
incapacitated any man from
further service in his occupa-
ton. If the doctors had said
they couldn't answer the ques-
ton at all, 1t would have i'm
piled a gravity which the ply
sicians didn't feel was justified.
So they replied as hundreds of
other physicians would have
answered if the same question
had been asked immediately
after a surgical operation on
anybody else with the same
illness.
The truth is that medical
data cited by doctors most
skilled in handling this type of
illness in thousands Of cases
snow that the vast majority OF
patients have no Iinfavorable
after-effects and the illness is
not in itself related at all
to the heart condition of a
patient.
Two medical studies made
for the benefit of the American
Heart Association and Just an
nounced at Boston show that
surgery for other ailments is
not dangerous for heart pa
tients. Out of SITS patients
