STAND ON MEDICAL
PLAN REAFFIRMED
Trustees of A. M. A. Reject
“State Medicine” Proposal
of 430 Physicians.
Br the Associated Press.
CHICAGO, Nov. 20.—Trustee* of
the American Medical Association,
replying to advocates of proposed
changes in medical principles, reaf
firmed today their adherence to the
House of Delegates' decision rejecting
the plan at the last national meeting.
The declaration was in a formal
statement discussing the "principles
and proposals” signed by 430 phy
sicians which the board said ‘‘the
newspapers generally heralded as a
revolt against the American Medical
Association • • • in behalf of ’State
medicine.’ ”
Committee Met November 7.
The proposals were advanced In a
public announcement November 7 by
a committee of physicians who met
in New York. The basic principle
was that the health of the people ‘‘is
the direct concern of government.”
The Board of lYustees said the
same proposals had been rejected by
the House of Delegates, the elected
representatives of the association's
106,000 members, "after thorough
consideration.”
The governing body’s mandate to
the trustees, officers and employes of
.-. . . I- ■ ■ ■" ■ i. ' ■ l> 1 I '.I
the association, the statement con
tinued, “opposes the principles and
proposals emanating from the Com
mittee of Physicians.”
Indicates Changes Unnecessary.
T^ie board advised that until the
elected representatives determine
“that some fundamental change or
revolution in the nature of develop
merit, distribution and payment for
medical service in the United States
Is necessary, physicians will do well
to abide by the principles which the
House of Delegates has established.
“They will, at the same time, de
precate any attempts inclined, to lead
the executive and legislative branches
of our Government, as well as the
people of the United States, Into the
belief that the American medical
profession is disorganized.”
