STORE THAT SAVES YOti
E
IS HELD AS HOPE
LOUISVILLE. Ky. (UP) The
medical profession and the public
should give more serious attention to
suicides due to 111 health, believes
Dr. Sidney Robby, arthritis specialist.
He classifies the "self-mercy" sui
cide aa the act of a diseased mind
and hence never justified. Dr. Rob-
by, who Is medical director of the
Robby arthritis and asthma clinic
here, Is convinced that hundreds of
lives could be saved each year if the
public was informed more thorough
ly of the progress of medical science
in the field of chronic and "Incur
able" diseases.
"The so-called mercy suicide," aald
Dr. Robby, "is due to a state of mind
It la auto-suggestion, a repetition
of the thought that the struggle
agairfst a supposedly incurable Illness
Is hardly worth while. The truth Is
that the man who is sick In body Is
always sick In mind aa well. He is
In such a state that even If there
were some ray of hope he would re
ject It and at the first unlooked-for
opportunity a convenient gas Jet or
a loaded gun his mind would me
chanically do what It had been
taught by suggestion. To prevent
such a temporary lapse or fit of In
sanity, th- person with an 'incurable'
disease must never be left alone to
brood over his illness, and must be
continually buoyed up with hope of
a cure.
In cases of arthritis and allied ail
ment of which there are 6.000.000
sufferers In this country the Indi
vidual has a definitely hopeless out
look. Many are confined to wheel
chairs with constant pain and disuse
of hands and legs. They see them
selves growing worse and worse each
year, suffering more Intensely,' and
when expedients resorted to lose the
power to relieve, the patients become
desperate. With nothing to look for
ward to, the average patient usually
resigns himself to what he believes
to be an impossible situation. In
evitably the thought of suicide enters
his mind, and too often the thought
is translated to action.
"Yet in arthritis aa In other dis
eases which are thought to be Incur
able, suicide Is not justified because
medical science Is marching forward
and each day adding to our know
ledge. In rheumatism scientifically
minded doctors are perfecting new
means of combatting It, and today
the progress of the disease definitely
can be stopped and the pain re
lieved." DISPLAY OF FLAG ON
ARMY DAY REQUESTED
SALEM, Ore., April 2. (AP) Gov
ernor Martin requested that all pub
lic buildings display the American
flag April 6 in honor of Army day.
