Behrends Co., Inc. “Juneau’s Leading Department” Store” Medicine’s “Silent Partners” Risk Lives to Fight Disease By HOWARD W. BLAKESLEE (Associated Press Science Editor) NEW YORK, July 30. — Four New York physicians, submitting to the scratch of infantile para- lysis vaccing needles, have joined a dramatic but unnumbered com- pany of doctors who have volun- teered their own bodies for ex- periment—the ‘“silent partners” of medical discovery. The New Yorkers are trying one of the first paralysis vaccines to be used on human beings. Here- tofore such vaccination has been too dangerous and doubtful for anything except animals. They| say they are taking no risks, that it’s nothing to talk about. That phrase—"fothing to talk about"—pictures the whole com- pany, past and present, and the sort of courage they possess, a bravery that does without boast- ing. Although medical men say there have been thousands of such self experiments, medical litera- ture runs true to form—it doesn't record them any befter than the physicians themselves. Victim Of Inquisition Bearch of the great library of the New York Academy of Medi- cine failed to produce even one comprehensive printed Mst of such heroes. Fielding H. Gardner’s his- tory of medicine listed 26 names as medical martyrs, beginning with Servetus, who died in 1553, not from his experiments, but for his opinions. He discovered the blood relationship between heart and Jungs. But it was the Inquisition which got him for heresy. In Gardner’s list is the most fa- mous recent example—Jesse W. Lezaer Who gave his life fighting cian, took millions of cholera bac= ili to prove that they do not cause the disease. He did mot catch it. But later his theory and his grave test were disproved, and he became so despondent at| the age of 83 that he committed suicide. John Hunter, the English physi- cian, is one of the notable stor- ies. There was a dispute about two venereal diseases. It was thought the same organism caused both. To prove difféerently Hunter innoc- ulated himsélf with what he sup- posed was the milder of the two. stood in readiness to prevent viole nge.
