* Mercy: Medical Hypocrisy?
As research brings forth an unending

would have astounded Hippocrates and
with awe.

Yet concomitant with these phenomenal medical advances have come equal-

ly phenomenal costs of treatment even
with the various hospitalization plans
that often make proper and even necessary medical care prohibitively expensive. For the indigent, it is more often
out of the question.
Sunday a local hospital demonstrated

the reprehensible inhumanity and needless suffering that can occur when money
is more important than mercy, when
hospitals operating like hotels, movie
theaters or parking lots say "You may
stay if you can pay."
child had backed into
A
a tub of hot water and received second

and
burns over 20 per cent
of her body. Her father carried her to
a nearby highway, where a passing Fayette County patrolman took them to
St. Joseph's Hospital. The child was
allowed to lie m the emergency room
for 30 minutes without being given so
treatment,
much as emergency first-ai- d
according to hospital records before bethird-degre-

ing removed to Good Samaritan Hospital.
Why? Why should anyone, particularly a baby incapable of offering any
argument or of understanding anything
but the agony of what the patrolman
called "blisters as big as my thumb," be
v'enied medical care when it is so
ob-ious-

humaneness could stand idly by and allow a baby to suffer simply because no
otic could pay for the 50 cents' worth
of ointment needed to give it at least
some comfort.
Hospitals still treat indigent cases, of
course, and there arc still doctors who
uncomplainingly get out of bed and travel miles to treat a patient whom they
know will provide little, if any, fee. Yet
there are more and more cases where
hospitals refuse to
treat emergency
cases and doctors are reluctant to or will
not make calls until they are assured
of a fat fee. And, too, the healers raise
holy Ned when the University gives the
faculty flu shots for 50 cents and deprives them of the $3 or $5 fee they
get for an injection that costs pennies.
Anyone who is scalped literally and
figuratively by a surgeon and then protests can hope for little justice. The
medico hides behind a plethora of excuses, a favorite of ours being the high
this
education. Under
costs of his
teacher who, after all, has

Wedding Of The Year

series of operations in 1950 in Denmark, is to be married to a Wauke-ga111., statistician.

Drunkenness, of course, is absurd.
But among University students it does
not reveal depravity so much as it does
a pitiful ignorance, no doubt largely
encouraged in the freshman bumpkin
by bucolic Baptist fanatics bent on "protecting" him from "sin." Both phenomena
are signs of the primitive naivete of a
backwoods community a situation one
might hope the University could recognize and correct.

Recently you ran a quotation: "Of
all the words of tongue or pen, the
saddest are these: 'It might have been'."
My parody goes like this:
"Of all the harsh words of tongue

Much Ado About...
The Evils of Demon Rum
By GURNEY NORMAN

When one speaks of law breakers,
it is usually in a condescending tone,
reproachfully, scornfully. For lawbreakers are those impediments to the onward
march of society, that minority which
is continually obstructing the normal
life. "Down with
pace of every-da- y
them," we say, and rightly so.
But. right here at, the University, the
administration for many years has been
openly obstructing justice violating a
very definite law of our beloved Commonwealth, to wit: that students le
subjected to periodical temperance lectures while assembled in a 'body. (KRS
158.270. See Kernel, March 19.)
At least since 1955, no such lectures
have been held, and, as far as I can
determine, they never have in modem
times been a regular part of the semester
schedule.
With the president required by law to
deliver or cause to be delivered at least
two temperance lectures a semester, it
is amazing that this flagrant disregard
for public statute has been allowed to
continue unchecked for so long. Consequently, it is no wonder that public
drinking on campus is so widespread.
For who is to say which laws we
will obey and which we will ignore?
Indeed, if citizens have this prerogative,
what is to prevent people by the throngs
from robbing and looting at their leisure,
obeying laws only as they see fit? When
one law is ignored, the whole system is
weakened, and, unless care is exercised,
anarchy may result.
With this thought in mind, I implore
the University administration to reconsider their careless, thoughtless, illegal
ways, to oheydhe law, and to rid our
campus community of the horrible dregs
of the devil's weapon ALCOHOL. How
many mothers, broken from watching
their sons become addicted to the brew,
might give their very lives if the administration had acted sooner.
But it is not too late. "Some work of
noble note may yet be clone," as the
poet said. I leave it to your hearts
and minds to ponder, administration,
deans of men and women, of colleges

and schools, vice presidents and presidents alike. Act now.

There is one last hope. The Student

ever-prese-

It is up to the congress, second to the
administration, to see that the state law
is upheld and the lectures delivered,
thereby protecting the welfare-o- f
the
students it represents. If the administration fails to respond to the mounting
lectures, the
plea for the much-neede- d
congress is legally and morally lound '
to approach higher authority for a full-scainvestigation of the whole University system, and to erae this blot on
the University's good name.
le

The least the congress can do is go
on record as favoring the enforcement
of the law, which I hereby challenge
it to do, at its Monday meeting, in the
interest of justice and cleanliness.
If the congress fails to take action
on this matter, it can only mean that it
is satisfied with the current situation,
that it is content to disregard the law.
Indeed, inaction here is practically an
advocation that students chink! And
what kind of congress is it that promotes
so foul a thing as the partaking of
liquor? How will you justly conceal
that fact from mothers and fathers who
plan to send their young children to the
state university to be educated?
Probably ,the mass of students asking for the lectures would settle for only
one a semester, rather than lose out altogether. Anyway, the true character of
our University people will reveal itself
shortly, depending upon their handling
of this situation.
Plesae, SC and administration, do not
let us down.
