f~ I~R Al PAbf PROFESSIONAL OPPORTUNITY
Members of the Texas Association of Osteopathic Physicians and
urgeons have for years Instructed the Public H ealth ommittee to secure
for them post graduate education.
For the past five years, the State D epartment of H ealth has respond
ed to the demands of the profe sion for post graduate training and again
this year, has responded to the Association 's reguest.
December 12-13, at The Baker H otel, Dallas, Texas, the State De
partment of H ealth will present you with a most enlightening and edu
cational Seminar by physiCIans who are leaders In the medical and osteo
pathic professions . It IS an opportunity you cannot afford to miss.
Again we ask, are your demands for po t graduate work just lip
talk, or are you sincere In your reguest? The State D epartment of H ealth
cannot afford to put on these semina rs unles there is a sufficient atten
dance of osteopathic physicians to justify the efforts involved . Atten
dance in the past ha been fair, but not what it shou ld be if the State
Department of H ealth is to continue these seminars.
Review the program as published in this Journal and you will realize
that if you are to keep up with the latest informatIOn available, you can
not afford to pass up thl opportunity.
Send in your reservatIOn now and by your attendance, help the Public
H ealth Committee and your Association ful fill your demands to provide
you with more and better post graduate education .

I see something behind the soul of Santa laus, a figure that has done more to mspire JOY mto childhood and the world th.ln any other smce history began. ChflStma, is aturated with more unselfishnes than any other time of the }'ear, for more people are thinking about doing something to make omeone else happy.

FORT WORTH - For the fourth consecutive year, the guota to the Unitc:d Fund Campaign has been over-sub"cribed by the Fort Worth Osteopath ic physicians. An announcement of same was made at the first report of the divi Ion leaders by Dr. Elbert P. arlton who headed the drive among the profess ion in Fort Worth . This \Va, the only group that reac hed Its guota on the fir t report, for which the), received a prize and fa\ 'orable publici ty and compliments.
There can be no better public reL1tions by the osteopathic profession than civic pride.

Senator Fuller Speaks to Texas-Arkansas Osteopaths
enator fuller delivered the followII1g address at a joint meeting of the Texas-Arkansas physicians at Texarkan,\, Arkansas, September 18, 19')8.
I am very happy to be with you people, and here in Texarkana-I tertain ly feel "well traveled" here where I tan ,tand with one foot in one tate Jnd one in the other. I sometimes wonder ju,t how well the Arkansas people get along with the Texas people. I heard the other day about a busll1ess man who went over to the Arkansas '>Ide and made a telephone call and screamed hiS head off when the charge wa 60(. "What," he yelled, "why back in Texarkana, Texas I cou ld ta lk to hell and back for 60c." "Ma)'be so," replied the operator, curti)" "but from T exas that wou ld be a loca l ca ll ."
r feel rather at a 10 to be Jsked to speak to you about your own prof e, Ion - J suppose that I share with mo t
other la),men the feeling of awe regarding dOLtors-I can think of nothing in the world that wou ld give one a greater fee ling of accomplishment and ,atisfaction than to be able to hel p people to the extent that a doctor doe. We law)'ers like to think we occasionally help out someone's pocket book, but that i not CJuite like healll1g his body. Incidentall)" I meJn help out our client's pocket book-not transferring it from his pocket to ours! That remind me about a fellow who wa, tellll1g hiS guests about how he had brought up one of his sons to be a doctor and the other to be a law),er. " You must be very proud " murmured one of the guests polite ly. "Well , I was," the man rep lied, "but now it looks like it might break up the fami ly. I got hit by a car awhi le ago. M)' son the doctor want to cure me, but my on the lawyer wants me to act tflppled '0 he can sue for damages."
The medical profes Ion has probably made greater "tride 111 the past century than almost any other group of people. The ,uenee of medlClI1e IS not static, but one that IS continually moving forwa rd - opening up new path" and every such path, one of great interest. We shudder to think of the destruction that ha been made pOSSible by research and im entlons of the past years, but, as a by-produtt, so to speak, of ;,uch de\'astating lI1\'entions, hJ.s (ome

progre~ in the pre\ ention and lUre 01 many dread diseases. Of course, I am In no position to rem ind you fellows of the e new developments, but to someone like me, a proud grandfather, the
alk vaccine for polio ha seemed like .I miracle sent from God . I ca n remember \ ery well standing by my on's bed In the hospital whde the doctor made tesh to eliminate the po sibil ity of po· 1'0. Maybe in a few years there will be no fathers who mLl~t wait 0 hel pie Iy by a bed ide.
There has been such progre,s, actual· Iy I think we cou ld say that we have ,een the po sible conCJue t of hea lth , and the defeat of disease.
I read the other day where a 'cientist s.1id that if the time and money that i~ "pent on Atomic research cou ld just be pent on cientific research for the good
of man, that soon we would be li ving In .1 time of such advancement as has never been imagined by man, and I think th,lt probably first in line would be the defeat of disease. What.! shame that uch time and money and talent cannot be diverted Into that channel a, to realize such potential advancement.
Of LOur e, there are sti ll a g reat many things that even you doctor cannot eem to help us poor people with, yet.
For instance, I went in to see my good friend Dr. Shields back home one day suffering with thl pain in my shou lder that CJuite a few of you fellows have treated me for. "Ever had this before," Dr. hle lds asked. " W ell , yes, Doc, like r ,lid, it comes and it goes." " Hmn " Doc concluded, "looks like you've got It .1g.un ."
Howe\ er, a, a~d before, I come to you a a layman, and think I had better stick to something J know a lit tle more abo ut . Thi, evening, a, one of I'our Texas senators, r would like to briefly review our health sen ' lce in Texas. and to touch on how the prac· tice of medicine is regulated by law in our state.
When the medical pr.lctice act was enacted into law by the Texas Leglsla.
Page 6
ture back In about 1907, It set up a board of men, learned In medicine, ( with the prOVision that no school of medicine should have a majority representation on the board. This act has been amended from time to time to keep it current and workable, but the composition is stil l the same. The medICal board " composed of nine doctors of mediCine and three doctors of osteo· pathy.
The T exas onstitution provides a safeguard to prevent a preference being shown to either school of medicine. Tn Article 16, tdlon 30, the Constitution of Texas prOVide, as follows:
"That the Legis lature may pa s law prescribing the CJualifications of practitioners of medicine in this state and punish person for malpractice, but no preference hail ever be given by law to any 5(hool of medicine." Thi safeguard has repeatedly jLl ti
fied, because the doctors of medicine and the doctors of 0 teopathy have been able to work toward a common objecti\'e In the impro\ement in the health and medical care of the people in our tate.
As YOLl, of course, know, doctors of o teopathy and doctors of medicine both take the very same examination and when they receive their li cense, it permits them to practice medicine and surgery on an eCJua l basis. I have had occasions to closely observe these two profession work out their problems to allow them to work toward parallel ob· Jectives.
I understand that there a re around 700 osteopathic physicians and 7000 doctors of medicine furnishing the health sen'lCes for the people of Texas.
Osteopathic phy ician and urgeons have three do tors of osteopathy on the medical board, one on the tate Board of Health , and one on the Vocational
urses ' Boa rd . I have learned a great deal about doc·
tors of 0 teopathy in the pa t few years that maybe I did not know before, and _ that man)' people probably stil l do not know: the lICensed doctor of osteopath)
()v~mbcr. 1958

In the
iBoard IlOnal
I . of course, subject to all public health laws pertaining to control and pre\'entlon of disease: he i recognized b), all IOsurance compan ies: there are around Slxt)' hospitals of osteopath), in the state of Texas-in many countie, the only hospital to ser\'e the people in those counties is an 0 teopathic hospital.
The osteopathic hospita ls are also. of course, regulated by our regulations and as isted by state agenCie . Recently an osteopathic hospita l was completed at a cost of more than a mill ion dollars, 1.) of the funds came through by approval of the state Department of H ealth, the Jgenc)' for Hill Burton fund s.
We know of the acknowledged shortage of doctors in our state. What about the total physician population? In Texa we have three medical school turn-109 out 33 1 doctors each year. and there is talk of a fourth medical chool.
In state population, there is one doctor for every 1200 people.
In Houston, for instance, we have I doctor for every 500 populatIOn. In rural areas it is much wor ethan thatwe ha\'e one doctor for e\'ery 2500 people.
Ob\iou Iy, from these figures, we can see that we must utilize to the very g reatest extent possible a ll of the avai l-
able doctor. The co t of medical education is becoming extremely expensi\·e. Today, for instance, It takes about
2500.00 per year to educate a medical Hudent compa red to 500.00 per yea r in 1930.
Some times this lOstly education sort of backfires-you become 0 educated that no one can ta lk to you but doctors . I am sure most of you know enator George Parkhouse. W ell, orne time ago George was not feellOg so well, so he went to see Elmer Baum. there in Austin, and Doc diagno-ed his ai lment as Hyd ropsy. "What is that )" he demanded of the doctor. " W ell ," said Dr. Ballin, " that i too much water 10 the body." "W ate r," yelled Geo rge, "why I have never taken a drop of water in my life." Then after a minute's reflection , he added: " Must have been that blankety blank ice."
eriously, there are many phases of your profession that need your serious lOn ideration, as we ll as you r legis lators' . I ran across some statist ics the other day that were urpri ing to me. It eems that the Dean of Columbia Col
lege of Physicians and urgeons stated that around 5000 foreign trained phys· Icians would enter this country this yea r. Compare tl1l5 with the total 6977 grad·

There is one other thing that I would lIke to bring out whi le I have the 01" portunit)'. I feel very ,trongly that each profession should police its own pro· fession. I have felt that occasIonally the legal profession has 10 t a lot of prestige by not only overlooking, but actually (overing up irregu lantie on the part of members of the legal pro· fession, we ll , we have tar ted a clean· up campaign in our state bar, and we .lre becoming very jea lous of the rep' utation of our profes ion. We are be· glllnlllg to realize our respon iblilty too, o to speak, clean our own house. I feel
that the medical profession-doctors of medicine and doctors of osteopathy alIke, have this same re ponsibility to the public, and to your profession. When you allow irrespon ible members of your profe sion to abuse their I itense, you have lowered the prestige of your profes ion, and hurt yourself professionall y.
The Legislature has in amending the laws regulating your profession, given the law more teeth for practiclllg medicine without a license. These laws should of course be rigid ly enforced, but al 0, you should be very alert for .lbuse within the profession itself.
As I said ,n the beglllning, I feel presumptlous III di cu sing your own ( profession. However, as a legi lator, I am very interested in the matters we have disCllssed together, and as a friend, I am interested in the progre s of your profes Ion. If you have suggestions regarding legislation, I wou ld be happy always to have your advice and counsel. I might not a lways be able to go with you-because a Doctor BaUln can tell you-if I think you are right, I am for you, but if I think you are wrongI'm agin you. But I do appreciate the opportunity to discu s any pending legislation with you or your repre enta-tives.
I n closing, I woul d I ike to read a little poem I read about the medical profession-and warn )'OU, don 't you use this philosophy on me, D r. Baum:
Last ni~ht J had a funny pain, and to the Doc J flew.

The A.O.A. ode of EthICs is uch a document. The ve ry objects of the Association itself to promote the public health , and the art and uence of the o teopathic school of practIce of the healIng art require that it members conduct them elves in an exemplary and ethical manner. The A.O.A. By-Law, Article Ill , directs the House of Delegates to e tablish a Code of Ethics for the informatIOn Jnd gUIdance of the members. The By-Laws state that the members of the Association shall comply in their dai ly contact with the pro\ ISlons of the ode of Ethics. The A.O.A.

Tiny Tot Victor in First Round With Cards Stacl<ed Against Her
From the EI Paso Times, September 7, 1958 By JOE DEMI
Forty days ago this unday, a miracle in the struggle for life began.
For on that mugg)', rain)' July Tuesday, Donna Carol Gorman, three month premature and weighing onl)' three pounds, was born with nearly all the cards in the deck of existence stackc:d against her.
It wa 5 :30 a. m., when Mrs. James Gorman, bearing this her firstborn onl)' since the third week of February, ca me to Park Foothi ll Hospita l, 820 I heridan Road. Dr. Rene J. Noren resident physician, made a quick examination and prepared immediately for the delivery.
At 8:10 a. m., Donna Carol came into the world , and immediately went into the guarded conlines of the Infant Incubator. D ay and night, member of the hospital staff, nur es and nurse ' aides watched over her glass-walled home.
But the little one lost weight. From her birth record, she sank to two pounds, four ounces. And with every lost ounce, a little load of g loom set-
tied more heavi ly over the blue-walled nursery.
Then, on Aug. 13, two weeks and one day after her lirst appearance in the drama, Donna Carol's gentle pressure on the scales showed a gain. Hopeful , skeptical nurses waited, weighed her again.
There it was. Half an ounce gained since the day before.
And she continued to gain. Not steadi ly, but she didn't lose any more. The tin)', pencil-sized arms seemed stronger, and a Dr. Noren aid, "that baby had a will to live."
On the 39th day of her life, Saturday, the guarded information that Donna Carol had a good chance to live was cautiously made public.
For one of the deuces that fate sl i pped into the matchstick-sized pink fingers when the Infant wa born was strength. From her lirst minute on earth, he seemed stronger than other prema
ture infants. And the other card of life was alert
ness. Though the infant had had her own heartbeat, separate from that of the mother, for only two weeks before

Many of us ha\e had reason from time to time to try to explain, in lay terms, the 0 teopathlC Concept to friends or patients. When tonf ron ted with this opportunit)" we are often at a loss to know how to offer intelligent explanation. Much factual and worth· while material has been written In pamphlet and book form gi\ing the answer to such 9uestions. We are not using to fu ll advantage th is method of inst ructi ng in terested laymen, or possible future students of Osteopathy, unless we project such matenal and information into the educational field . Various members of the professionespellally the Executive Secretary of the
