Dear Boss: Joe VOgel is doing
Q tremendous Job as the head
Of MGM and it couldn't happen
to a nicer person. Vogel started
out in that organization as an
usher in an uptown Loew the
ater. AS he moved up in years
and experience, he moved UP in
rank. One Of his first acts,
when they gave him an i'm
portant executive job. years ago,
was to insist on a general raise
for all secretarial workers in
the organization. The big brass
of the company were so incensed
that they threatened to release
him. But Vogel, instead Of be-
ing bulldozed, told them that he
was sticking by his decision. He
won and thousands Of Loew
whitecollar workers got their
raises. Later, performers who
played Loew theaters learned
that he was one Of the few
executives in the Loew theater
chain who, instead Of resenting
them, always was in their corner.
Vogel always had tremendous
class and his magnificent recon-
struction of a company that was
on. the verge of collapse hardly
comes as a surprise to the people
of show business.

DISCIPLINE President
woodrow Wilson was a man of
rigid self-discipline. When pre-
pairing speeches, which were
masterpieces of precision and

centration. Once he sat down
at his typewriter, he permitted
no distractions.

BREEDING - German poet
Heine spent a week end at the
estate OF a landed aristocrat.
The other guests, like the host,
had only one interest-horse

subject from morning until
night.
Heine was thoroughly bored.
When he returned home, a
friend asked:
Well, how did you like your
aristocratic companions?"

unequivocal reply to that one
1t is one Of your prime rights
as q patient: to ask questions
about your illness.
/ would not hesitate to sug-
gest that you get on the Medi-
cal Merry-G o-Round until you
discover a doctor who is both
patient and informative. The
day is long past when medical
men. like sphinxes, sit high on
their pedestals and act as men
apart from their patients!
Your doctor needs to be a
f1ne human being well as a
healer. And being an under
standing person he will realize
how important it is to put
your mind at ease. Otherwise
ne cannot possibly accomplish
the fine results that modern
medicine offers to the sick
one.
Why not have a frank dis.
cussion with your doctor? Tell
him how you feel about his
"tantrums." If he can't see II
your way, he will at least know
why you are leaving him to
try a more sympathetic and
understanding physician.

STOP KILLING
YOURSELF
Doctor as Human Beinq and Healer
By Or. PETER J. sTEINcRoHN

Dear DR.. Steincrohn: Re-
Gently I had trouble with my
eyes. and while waiting for
an appointment with an eye
doctor ! saw a regular ply
sician and had a thorough ex-
animation to see if something
else might have caused the eye
trouble. My only complaints
were minor: tiredness and lin
gering muscular pain after
heavy exertion.
The physician prescribed
pills for a slightly low metab-
olism. and hormone shots
(mixed). I am 43. I would like
to be free of these treatments
but don't know If / can stop
them just any time want to.
Are they usually given in a
series OF treatments or can I
just quit? The pills for metab-
olism will need a refill soon
and my next appointment is
in a week.
The doctor I am now seeing
gets a temper tantrum every
time I ask questions, so I really
don't know. My eye trouble was
caused by fatigue and tension,
and I would like to let well
enough alone. ] would appre-
ciate an answer. for which I
now thank you. Sincerely,

THERE ARE TWO main

the larger Of the two consists Of
those people who stick to their
doctor through thick and

who you have heard me refer

From what your write, Mr..
j. G.. I infer that you belong
to the first class: you are stick
ing to him even though he goes
into temper tantrums" every
time you ask him a question
that seems so important to you.
Although I do not subscribe, as
a rule, to people jumping on
the medical merry go-round,
there are times when I unre-
servedly recommend such ac-
ton.
Mind you. I am not specific
ally suggesting that you leave
your doctor. That might he
unfair, not only to him, but to
you. What am saying is that
there is one thing that every
patient has the right to: a

he puts to his doctor.
