Albany Daily Democrat from Albany, Oregon • Page 6

The following statements, made by Dr. A. P. Howells before the legislative committee on revision of laws, were submitted by the author today for publication, referring to house bill No. 391, which is now in the hands of the revision of laws committss of the house: "In appearing before this committee on behalf of the Oregon Osteopathic Association, of which I am: member, I wish to set before you the attitude of our state association toward this bill, and particularly our attitude toward the high educational requirements of the bill.

After these brief introductory remarks, Carl Sox of Albany, who is acting as attorney for this association, will discuss with you certain details of this bill and changes which should be made in the interests of fair play. "The present requirements in this state of the osteopathic applicants, as to their technical training, is that they shall have had a four year course of eight months each. It is now about ten years since any of our colleges of osteopathy and surgery have given a course of less than four years of at least eight months each, excepting one which was disqualified by the American Osteopathic association about five years ago. "The minimum educational requirements of The American Osteopathic Association of its seven col-1 leges, are for entrance, a diploma from a recognized high school or secondary school, and after that the technical course is of four years of at least eight months each, covering everything covered in a class A medical school, and as thoroughly. The only exception which might be honestly taken to this statement is in regard to materia medica, pharmacy and prescription writing.

In the Los Angeles College of Osteopathic Physicians and Surgeons, these subjects are given as this college comes up to the requirements of a class A medical school according to the laws of the State of California and its graduates are licensed as physicians and surgeons, though by an independent osteopathic board. In some other colleges of osteopathy and surgery these are included under other heads and in some not much attention is paid to them. However, class A medical schools consider these subjects of relatively little importance and do not grant much time to it. Harvard medical school has no course in materia medica and allows only 104 hours to all drug medication. "Now while the above educational requirements of the American Osteopathic association are enforced, yet most of the colleges of osteopathy and surgery maintain a four year course nine months each instead of eight as allowed, and at least four of the colleges require as an additional entrance requirement, one year of college physics, chemistry and biology.

I might add that each of these colleges of osteopathy and surgery has in connection with it or available to them a standard equipped surgical and obstetrical hospital of not less than 50 beds capacity, with maintain possibly, one exception and they clinics and dispensaries. in connection with these schools. The Los Angeles College of Ostenrathic Physicians and Surgeons will shortly have in and. US disposal for teacning purposes and for internships for their graduates, a 250 bed unit of the County hospital, manned from the osteopathic profession completely. "With this brief statement of our educational standards we The Oregon Osteopathic Association wish to go on record as favoring the high educational requirements as called for in this bill.

We could not do otherwise and be true and honest physicians. There could be an honest difference of opinion, however, as to whether one of the college years required might not better be omitted and a year's internship added. "While favoring these high standards, we must at the same time call your attention to several aspects of this bill, which are thoroughly unfair and give a golden opportunity for injustice by the dominant school of practice. It is not wise legislation which lets a bill get through which gives to much power to any one school The class or sect; so that they will have the power to throttle an opposing school of thought. That such power will or possibly may be used this way has been our experience in the past on composite medical boards of the several states in about 75 per cent of the cases.

The tyranny and strife, resulting from such a situation not only works to the grave disadvantage of the weaker school or class but also to the tyrant as well, and certainly deprives the people of many advantages they might have it the newer and weaker school had a proper opportunity to develop to its utmost; and thus make its greatest contribution to society. "Some of the legislators are now saying: is the need of this bill Certainly this bill as now drawn will do more harm than good. However, there is a very genuine need for high educational requirements for all those who would practice the healing art. This state is being flooded with all kinds of ill-trained and untrained so-called doctors. I think you will admit that it is not fair for the well trained medic or osteopath who has spent from four to seven years after his high school work i in acquiring a technical education to ask him to compete on much the same with men of a year or so, socalled training.

It. is certainly not fair to the public many of whom are not wise enough to detect the difference. All this being true, however, does not justify passing a bill which throws all the power in one set of hands, and makes it possible for them to deprive, the osteopathic profession of it now has and has been exercising for some years. We would call your attention to the fact that osteopathic physicians and surgeons are licensed to do surgery in this state and have been since 1917, and so our present license states; and quite properly so because we on the average receive as thorough a training as the average medic. "The thoroughly unequal representation on the proposed board, of licensure and other features the bill which Mr.

Sox will point out make it possible for this board to deprive the osteopathic profession of rights already granted them by this State and to limit their chance for future development and growth; to prevent them from exercising their complete rights at physicians and surgeons which they are morally and at present legally entitled to. "The lack of a proper proviso in connection with the prliminary education requirements will work most unfairly on students from this and other states who are actually in school and may wish to locate here, because they may not have the two years college work. One of the members of this committee, Mr. Swan, has in his town a young man who has qualified with the high school work and one year of college work and has entered the Los Angeles College of Osteopathic Physicians and Surgeons. This man will be in college four years and then a hospital internship.

Are you going to shut out from your state one of its own citizens, born here for one year of preliminary college work? And then how about doctors in other states who might wish to locate here, but having been graduated some time back have not had the extra college work? "If gentlemen we cannot have this bill amended substantially as our attorney suggests, we must urge its defeat on the ground that it is class leg slation disguised by a most laudeHie nonrest for higher educational standards, but nevertheless aimed to all one class at the expense of another and at the expense of the people." 89 SCORE MADE BY ALBANY GIRL OREGON AGRICULTURAL COLLEGE, Corvallis, Feb. 11 (Special)Muriel Blume of Albany, special in home economics at 0.
