ADMINISTRATION AND FACULTY 18 GREETINGS TO THE CLASS OF 1934 IN SO FE respects it is doiilitl ' iil wlu ' tluT iiiattiTs pertaining ' to econoiuirs, jiirisprnd- I ' nce, ethics iiiul other pohlical and social aspects of puMic life are sufficiently stressed in the instruction projfranis of our nnderfiraduate schools. This ohservation is made in the lifiht of clianped conditions known to exist in the affairs of the world in general. Question has heen raised whether we may expect a flat return to the normal that we enjoyed prior to the World War, or if the departures noted should he taken as more or less stable and conforming factors of a new order. With the s])irit and tem])eranient of the pulilic at lar ;e, laxc l and stniincd to uiuisual proportion, it is fittinj; for younj; ])eo])le about to venture into the thick of .such dis(|uietude, for the purpose of makinj; a livinji, especially those of distinctive professional cai)acity, to consider well the commonplace issues confronting the public and to he duly observant of the pulse and stri le of the people in general whom they will seek to serve. In the conduct of your practices j)arti(ii!arly in these ptTi)lexing times, it is imper- ative that the spirit of human kindness and courtesy jjrevail. Vou are likely aware that most of our physicians today are serving and carrying along patients and families with vague expectancy as to benefit or recompense. Stated rates have been to.ssed to the winds in the face of losses and misfortune. You, too, will likely be forced to apply the humanitarian principle to some of your individual endeavors. It may be necessary to develop in the code of ethics among those caring lor the sick an unjjrecedentcd flegree of toleratice and a spirit of compassion toward the caste who, though shunning charitable share, seek the charily of kindness and concession until return of better estate. Yet this does not suggest that in the economic balance of your affairs you should not set about to maintain your offices in dignified mien, just as others do in the conduct of business, with a proper measure of resolution and firmness in the matter of charging fees anfl in the exaction of payments. If anything, at the time of entering practice, the humanitarian principle overdone would appear far worse than the operation of the cold maxims of business enterprise. With respect to jurisprudence and the rights and j)rivileges of practice in the several states, it is e.ssential that each individual acc|uaint himself fully with the established laws and regulations ])ertaining to his particular state, district or commu- nity. In this connection the oft-expressed wisdom of joining the organized societies and associations of our profession may be reiterated. The intrei)retation of laws, questions involving the rights or restrictions contained in acts, provisions, ordinances, and the like, become the problems and issues of chartered groups and their counsellors. A lone wolf, a poor economist set on saving the mere dollars of society or organization dues, is constantly faced with grief and adversity. The healthiest way to avoid contest and ligitation is to Obey the Law while subscribing to the privileges of membership in national and state associations. {Continued on page 34) THE SYNAPSIS 19 3 4
