"In sixteen years of active practice I have not used alcoholics at all. I am medical director of the Scranton Sanitarium, and I have considerable trouble in trying to cure those who use alcohol, and to undo some of the work my fellow practitioners have unwittingly made."--D. WEBSTER EVANS, M. D., Scranton, Pa. "I am opposed to the use of alcoholic liquors as a beverage, and with rare exceptions, to their use in the treatment of diseases."--DR. EUGENE KERR, Physician to Phipps Dispensary, Johns Hopkins Hospital, Baltimore, Md. "In my professional work I do not advise or permit the use of alcohol as a beverage or medicine in any form whatever. No alcohol is used medicinally in my hospital wards. Beer or wine is not permitted to convalescents. Children are never given tinctures. Cases of delirium tremens receive no alcohol. The hypodermic use of alcohol is not permitted in cases of shock. There are other much more effective and less depressing diffusable stimulants. "Among my colleagues the employment of alcohol as a medicine has diminished at least seventy-five per cent. in the past fifteen years. "I have cast it out entirely."--J. P. WARBASSE, M. D., Chief Surgeon German Hospital, Brooklyn, N. Y. "The habitual use of alcohol in any disease is worse than harmful."--ROBERT B. PREBLE, M. D., Chicago, Ill. "The last few years I find I have used less and less alcohol in prescribing for my patients until at the present time I use very little. I think my typhoid cases do better without alcohol than with it."--H. H. HEALY, M. D., former Sec'y North Dakota Board of Health. "Alcohol is a poison. It is claimed by some that alcohol is a food. If so, it is a poisoned food."--FREDERICK PETERSON, M. D., Professor of Psychiatry, Columbia University, N. Y. "Few physicians now credit alcohol as a food (that is, as a tissue builder) or as having any valuable medicinal qualities. In fact, it is considered by many to have a destructive rather than a constructive quality. I believe it should never be put into the human body."--EUGENE HUBBELL, M. D., St. Paul, Minn. "The medical profession is learning that alcohol has been much abused in the treatment of the sick, and is largely discarding it. I hardly find occasion to prescribe it once a year."--W. A. PLECKER, M. D., Sec'y State Board of Health, Hampton, Va.
