Newspaper) Foreign Representatives SMALL, SPENCER, LEVINGS & BREWER (Incorporated) CHICAGO NEW YORK BOSTON ta te Wise Physicians Members of the Hudson county, New Jersey, Medical society recently voted to use newspaper advertising and publicity to foster closer rela- tionship between the reputable mem- bers of the profession and the pub- dic. Their program includes publishing the names and addresses of physi- clans in newspapers, grouped in their Tespective communities. A uniform ‘code of ethics governing contacts be- tween physicians and the public has been outlined and will be emphasized. The results should be beneficial, both to the physicians and to the Public, for there has been a great deal of misunderstanding and more Jack of understanding between the members of this great profession and their patients. ‘Physicians perform a service for which they spend long years in prep- aration. They are entitled to and do collect pay for it. The real physician is worthy of his hire and if, occa- sionally, the doctor's bill seems a lit- tle steep to those able to pay, it must, be remembered that every physician performs a vast amount of work for which he receives nothing at all. As with charges, so with a great; many other things. The physician's professional problems have to deal, in a large measure, with the public consciousness, since this intangible thing has an important bearing on the mental attitude of his patients. Some persons expect the doctor to! is work a miracle. The best doctors do} not pretend to do so. They deal in! cause and effect, taking into account| the peculiarities of so complex a ma- chine as the human body, and occa- sionally throw in a large measure of psychology where that sort of thing promises to do the most good. ‘The average physician is alert, sin-/} cere, earnest and interested in the welfare of his patients. But a lot of people who might seek his services with benefit do not do so because they are led astray by more spec- tacular promises than the reputable Physician feels that he can justly make. The ethics of the profession have, in’ the past, prohibited advertising. ‘The theory is that a professional man has no right to advertise himself or] ge his abilities, that the patient should| ye seek him out. it ‘That may have been sound princi- ple at one time, but it hardly can be g0 now when thousands of persons, guccumbing to quackery as presented| via the radio and other media, are submitting themselves to incompe- tent hands. The modern view might easily be that it becomes the duty of sound practitioners in all professions di eri mi m tel money to tide them over until pay) int Mi or in of to consider in employing professional services. Viewed in that light, the medical men of Hudson county, New Jersey, are wise and public-spirited physi- cians.

Many of these men would be the first to rise and howl in righteous anger if the government. dared to tamper with their businesses, But they are all for the government mpering with somebody else's, if it seems to be in their own selfish in- rest. Business men who have sought to impel government into business are the greatest enemies of true in- vidualism. They provide such able ‘itics of the existing order as Dr. Beard, with the best of sure-fire am- unition. They are responsible for the growth of political dictatorships, paternalism, bureaucracy. They enace our economic and social sys- m of wifich they are a part—and which they hypocritically pretend to support. Friends of real individual- ism can hold no brief for them. If there were no tight-wads, where would the good spenders borrow day? It's a safe guess when a business man doesn’t advertise, he has some- thing he’s ashamed to advertise. Is there any more grand and glo- rious feeling than the reaction from finding out that it was the other fel- Jow's tire? Editorial Comment i er di with The Tribune's policies.

But what was done is worth atten- tion of all American taxpayers and the administrators of public affairs. In the summer of 1930 Governor Gardner began to prepare for the eral assembly of the following ar, and tax bills were ready when met. They believe in North Caro- course the federal government. During the last two years $9,750,000 of the state debt was paid off, and $20,- 000,000 will have been paid bonded debt by this administration.

Wandering again through the ticker} rooms of brokerage offices, listening to the “shop talk” of hangers-on, epi- sodes I personally witnessed seem to have gathered dream-dust. The time will come, doubtless, when a new gen- eration will consider them as legends and snickers will greet any effort to explain that “this actually happen | ed.” * * * i One of the most fantastic incidents of those strange, feverish times was staged one afternoon in a small but elegantly appointed “board room” of a brokerage fifm that has since col- lapsed. I was browsing about, look- ing for “local color” when in barged a slightly inebriated gambler. He had been on an all-night party and still wore his high silk hat, his swallow-tail evening coat and swung an ebony cane as he came in. Naturally, this attire before the noon hour created a stir of amuse- ment. “They're all going down—the whole flock of ‘em,” a pessimist was com- menting as the gent entered. “Every stock on the list.” “Says you,” commented the new- comer, who had been_ cleaning up steadily for weeks. “Tell you what T'll do—make you a little bet. I'll bet you that you can cash in on any of New York, ‘em—just pick one blind—and it’s; come in. Bet you a thousand bucks, and just to show you I'm a sport, I'll blindfold myself.

A handker- chief was placed over the speculator’s eyes. He took a lump of chalk from a board boy and threw it wildly. Then he bought heavily. I called up a few days later to see what had happened. The stock had jumped half a dozen points or more. The “blind” gambler had made a neat fortune, and won his bet. Someone told me the other day that he is now clerking in a store. * eK Then there was the legend of the superstitious gent who went to a numerologist. He took the names of half a dozen stocks or more, and left it to the number shark to figure out which seemed to have the best “lucky chances.” Then he plunged. And almost everyone seemed inno- culated with some of the hysteria virus. ‘There was a bootblack who made litt cra: of where there were many brokerage of- fices. Wherever he went, he’overheard tips. While shining your shoes, he would talk with the confidence of an expert on the “position” of such-and- such an issue.

He bought ® share or two at a time un- til he was able to “monument.” One day, as he fixed my shoelaces, he ad- mitted carrying margin accounts on three different stocks. He ran a few dollars into several hundred and sev- eral hundred into the thousands. ‘The other day I happened into the building.
