Some of the most interesting contentions to emerge
from the medical world in some time were raised at a
meeting of the western branch o f the American Public
Health association in Portland
The Health Bulletin published by the Oregon state
board of health, said in its June 7 issue that "Dozens
of widely-accepted popular theories on health w ere re
futed last week by leading authorities from the United
States. Canada. Alaska and Hawaii, speaking before the
17th annual meeting o f the western branch o f the A m eri
can Public Health association.
The article reads in part:
Three of the most common beliefs to fall by the way-
side were the often-heard statements that "polio is worse
now than it’s ever been," "venereal disease is beaten."
and “ public health agencies are engaged in curing sick
people " They just aren't true, according to the spec
ialists
In addition to giving the lie to many o f the old theor
ies, the public health experts took a cut at one o f this
year's most popular new- statements, anti-histamines are
a cure-all for the common cold ” Unfortunately that
proved false, too.
Drawing the sharpest criticism was the polio situ
ation. which is widely believed to be steadily worsening
each year Dr. Gaylord Anderson, director of the Uni
versity of Minnesota School of Public Health, said that
publicity given to cases of the disease has now become
so bad that health officers must face tw o outbreaks
whenever an epidemic does occur, “ one, an outbreak of
polio and one. an outbreak of hysteria ”
Stating flatly that "it is impossible to prove an in
crease” in polio. Dr Anderson said that actually he feels
there has been either no change or a decrease
Dr Anderson emphasized that today reporting o f the
disease is much more complete, and includes non-par
alytic cases which were not included in earlier reports.
He said that polio is probably as common as chickenpox
or measles, “ you've had it and I ’ve had it” — but that
only in a few cases does it manifest itself seriously.
Before meetings of both the venereal disease sec
tion and the general sessions, speakers repeatedly point
ed out that venereal disease is not beaten, as has been
generally believed since the advent of penicillin therapy.
There are still about 13.000 deaths annually

that the record proves the ‘importance o f continuing an
aggressive public health program, case-finding and edu
cation. as w ell as utilization of newer methods of treat
ment. to meet the problem which still exists.”
The fallacy that "public health agencies are engaged
in curing sick people” was refuted by both Portland
Citv Commissioner Fred Peterson and Dr. Arthur L.
Ringle. 1949 president of the western branch, who point
ed out that the objective of public health i$ to prevent
illness before it starts.
Dr Rodney R Beard, professor of public health and
preventive medicine at the Stanford University Medical
school, laid low another theory when he asserted that
“ we just don't keep people on the job any better by
giving anti-histamine than by giving sugar p ills” He
buttressed his argument by pointing to tests which show
ed 45 per cent of persons’ being given plain sugar pills
without their knowledge claimed they felt better, and 62
per cent given anti-histamine claimed improvement.
