"LET THE GALLED JADES WMCE" - An Open Letter to the Ethical Dental Trust of Oregon f t 'sMK J 7 In the twenty-five years that I have been a prac ticing dentist I have never been a member of a dental society. I refuse to join the ethical dental trust and have been the object of malice and perse cution because I will not. practice dentistry accord ing to the rules and regulations laid down by this un-American secret cabal. I give to every man the right to practice his profession as his conscience dictates, and 1 demand tne same ngni. i nerc arc many honorable, broadminded ethical dentists who. because of financial reasons, or through fear of being branded a "quack," submit to the dictates of the ethical dental trust, but in their own hearts de nounce the methods used by the little bunch of ethical highbinders who in each state assume to be the law and gospel of dentistry. In Oregon this ethical dental trust has set up a high court in which it claims the right to try any dentist on the charge, of professional treason who does not conform to their rules and regu lations. Two months ago I came to Portland and established in the Mer chants Trust building, corner of Sixth and Washington streets, my sixth Painless Parker office on the Pacific Coast. Every one of my associates here, as in all my other offices, are graduated, licensed dent ists of experience. I have invested my own money, pay my bills, obey the laws and conduct my business in an honorable, open and above-board manner. I ask no favors from the ethical dental trust and I deny that they have any right to make any rules by which I shall -conduct my business in this state. This ethical dental trust is a close organization in restraint of trade from which the public is excluded. It meets in secret as a dental society and plots how to have laws passed for the benefit of its membersnd how dentists who do not belong can be persecuted by prosecution. Under the pretext of the public good, they are trying to put a high board fence around the .state of Oregon, so they can urfmolested drive the people into their clutches like sheep to the slaughter. They want a government by dentists for dentists and if they had as much courage as they have villainy they would have a law passed permitting them to draw and quarter every dentist who put an advertisement in a newspaper. They are not only, in a con spiracy to rob the public, but they want to keep the people in ignorance of tooth hygiene. Becaus I have raised dentistry above a petty lar ceny business, and will not conform, to their secret price Jist, they call me a "quack." On this principle I have staked a"lifetimeof labor and have a fortune invested. Had I simply desired money I could have re tired from practice years ago with a competency, but; the American people have been kind to me with liberal patronage and I do not propose to stand by without a protest and be branded a "quack" so the ethical dental trust can force the public to pay big fees for social posi tion and poor dentistry. I am a graduate dentist, holding a degree from one of the best dental colleges in America. I am licensed to practice in half a dozen states and in Canada. I am the equal in skill, training and experience of any dentist in Oregon. I submit to the fairminded people of Oregon who pay the" dentist's bills whether this state shall be the " exclusive professional game preserve for an ethical dental trust, or whether the people shall say what the laws of this state shall be Respectfully, PAINLESS PARKER, DENTIST. .1
