MKDICAL I.Kil OK The American Medical association has started a campaign against the Volstead law which it finds obnoxious. By unanimous vote of its "house of delegates," the asscxiation condemns the "unfortunate provision" which limits a phys ician to prescribing one pint of liquor for a patient every 10 days. It is drafting a bill for presentation to the next con gress to remedy this. It is the function of the physician, the association declares, to determine "what amounts of liquor may be needed by patients." The doctors have a perfect right to fight that i.-;.-.ue out with congress. Some laymen will agree with the doctors and some with the law makers. Hut the law makers have a big advantage at least, unless and until the supreme court up holds the doctors' contention. Congress may stand pat, main taining that it is dangerous to give physicians blanket author ity over liquor prescriptions, because there are men even in the medical profession who would abu.-e such discretion and prescribe liquor in large amounts fur people who don't need it at all. Moreover, it is well known that opinion as to the medical value of alcohol varies greatly among physicians. lt...., r.w.r.. ..;,. : , 11.. ...... i.. e :t csiwcially one so old, honorable and useful as the medical "ei-i :n im.n.i.s in n... si. profession.
