NATIONAL GROUP RESTS HOPE OF VICTORY ON LAY PUBLIC;

Time Has Come to Forget Physician's. Duty to Keep
Laws of Moses, Says Sponsor.
NEW YORK, Jan. 17 (U. P.).—The National Society | for the Legalization of Eu-
thanasia (mercy-killing) began a campaign today to, achieve its aims through
Federal and State legislation.
Patients Alive Cited By Dr. Rice.
Professional ethics, religious beliefs and experience gained through practice were
weighed by Indianapolis physicians today as they studied the announcement
from New York that a society |
Formation of the society was an- | ‘had been formed for legaliza- | -
nounced yesterday by Dr. Charles | Francis Potter, president and leader of the first humanist society of New York. Its members believe with adequate safeguards, incurable | sufferers should be permitted to choose immediate death. “The Christian Church, especially the Roman Catholic, I have been told, oppose euthanasia bitterly,” Dr. Potter declared. “The legal profession may say there are insuperable obstacles to the passing of laws, and medical men may bring up their hippocratic oath.
“Time to Forget Moses”
“But common men and women, faced with the practical problems of whether they shall let their loved ones suffer torment for months before death, will cut through all this
ancient red tape and somehow make it possible to do the decent and right thing. “There is sure to pe someone who says it is against the Ten Commandments of Moses, who said ‘Thou shalt not kill’ Perhaps the time has come to forget Moses and listen to the words of Jesus, ‘Blessed are the merciful.” Dr. Potter announced that among the directors and members of the society's advisory board were: Dr. Harry Elmer Barnes, historian; Rabbi Sidney E. Goldstein of the Free Synagogue, New York; Dr.
Frank H. Hankins, professor of so- |
ciology at Smith College; Mrs. Robertson Jones, honorary president of the American Birth Control League; Dr. Clarence Cook Little, managing director of the American Society for the Control of Cancer; Dr. George H. Parker, professor of zoology at Harvard University: Dr. Oscar Riddle of the department of eugenics, Carnegie Institution of Washington; Dr. Walter F. Willcox, professor of economics at Cornell University. Also, Dr. Henry H. Goddard, professor of abnormal and clinical psychology at Ohio State University; Dr. Truman Lee Kelley, professor of education, Harvard; Dr. Foster Kennedy, professor of neurolegy, Cornell Medical College; Dr. William McDougall, professor of psychology, Duke University; Dr. Horatio H. Newman, professor of zoology and embryology and deal in the Colleges of Science, University of Chicago, and Leon F. Whitney, biologist and executive secretary of the American Eugenics Society.

| tion of mercy killings for the | hopelessly ill.
“We feel their motives are good, but experience has shown they | might be wrong,” was the concensus of the local medical pro-
fession. “It is a physician's duty to prolong life,” Dr. Thurman B. Rice
of the Indiana Medical Center here said, Point of Ethics
If mercy deaths, or euthanasia, is legalized, Dr. Rice said, three points are to be considered. They are, he said: 1. “A physician is morally bound | by ethics to prolong life 2. “There always is the chance that the diagnosis might be wrong. 3. “An essential point in mercy killings would be to obtain the consent of the patient to be put to death.”
Dr. Robert Moore, Marion County Medical Association president, said his organization was not prepared to make an official statement. | Condemning the movement, Dr. Central State Hos- | pital superintendent, said: “They must be a group of fanatics. I don’t see how any ethical group connected with organized medicine would do such a thing. “No physician has the right to take life. It is for him to alleviate pain and not to kill, no matter how chronic or how serious the condition of the patient.”
Insurance Plots Feared
Several physicians suggested mercy killings might develop into a “racket” for collection of insurance money and transfer of estates.
Dr. Herman G. Morgan, Indianapolis Health Board secretary: *“I personally have seen cases, particularly of cancer, where I felt death would be a blessing, but if it came to a medical conference to decide whether the patient might be granted a request to die, I don’t think I could serve. Dr, Charles W. Myers, Oity Hospital superintendent: “There are too many inherent dangers in such a plan. If it could be held in check there would be some virtue in the proposal, but I doubt that abuses could be avoided. I would hate to be designated to take a life. The doctor's duty is to preserve life.” Dr. W. D. Gatch, head of the In-

day. There is an inclination here to minimize importance of this meeting on two grounds; first, that it will be too large to permit more than general discussion of economic problems, and, second, that Mr. Roosevelt's unforeseen announcement that all holding companies must ultimately be liquidated has disturbed business. The U. S. Chamber of Commerce complained cautiously against se- | verity of Administration strictures on business in a review of the week which said: “The recent tendency to assail business and blame it for recession
has not proved conducive to the cooperative spirit so essential to confidence and recovery. Scolding and name-calling do not make for team play between business and Government.”
Ask Precise Criticism
These attacks have aroused some business men to suggest publicity and privately that the Administration should be more precise in at-
tacking business and business conditions to protect innocent individuals and industries innocent of wrong-doing against abuses and evils which Mr. Roosevelt feels are confined to a small group of capitalists or industrialists. The first major reaction to Mr. Roosevelt's press conference condemnation of all holding companies came over the week-end from Wendell Willkie, president of the $1,167,000,000 Commonwealth & Southern Corp. a public utilities holding company. Mr. Willkie said Tennessee Valley Authority competition and Mr. Roosevelt's objection to the holding company principle would combine to ruin his organization. He proposed that the Government purchase Southeastern operating units of Commonwealth and Southern at a price to be agreed upon by three persons, one appointed by the President, one by the Supreme Court and one by the corporation, Senator Norris (Ind. Neb.) said that the utilities themselves had found the provision in the Senate TVA bill to allow purchase of private utilities.

type of industrial planning legislation is germinating within the New Deal, possibly along the lines suggested a fortnight ago by Mr, Roosevelt that representatives of business and government could have round table discussions to minimize overproduction and the cycles of unemployment and recession which flow from it. That plan, however, is denounced privately by some of the trust-bust-ing New Dealers as both illegal and undesirable. They prefer to | proceed by legislation directed, in general, to outlawing monopoly and decentralizing control over industry and finance. Mr. Roosevelt's conference with the Business Advisory Council was scheduled some weeks prior to the opening of Congress and does not tie in directly with recent developments on the New Deal-big business front, notably the slashing criticisms of business procedure and controls by Secretary of Interior Harold L. Ickes and Assistant Attorney-General Robert H. Jackson. Tax Reform Speeded
There appeared today to be partial offsets to the unfavorable business situation with its complication of potentially serious friction between the business community and the Administration. Agriculture and commerce department economists found cause to expect a better farm price structure and pos-
sible quickening of business and
industrial activity. Congress did not rise with any enthusiastic approval of Mr. Roosevetl's general proscription of holding companies, a fact which persuades some observers that so general a death sentence could not be imposed for lack of votes on Capitol Hill.
HAGUE TURNS DOWN U.S. SENATE SEAT
JERSEY CITY, N. J. Jan, 17 (U, P.)).—~Mayor Frank Hague today declined the offer of an appointment to the U. S. Senate to succeed Gov- | ernor-elect A. Harry Moore. The Governor-elect will be inaugurated at noon tomorrow. When Mr. Moore takes office he will be empowered to fill the vacancy created by his own retirement from the Senate. Mayor Hague said he considered his fight against the “Reds” the most important campaign of his career and he could not quit the Jersey City scene until it was finished.

Plan Synchronization
City officials today planned synchronization of six traffic signal lights on Washington St. as a first step toward more adequate traffic control in the downtown area. Safety Board members said the cost of complete synchronization is “prohibitive for the present,” but added the lights will be synchronized whenever reconstruction becomes necessary, Theodore Dammeyer, Board presisaid that about $800 will be spent in setting up new controls on “overloaded” Washington St. St. to Senate Ave. and the lights synchronized at the same time.
Board Warned of Danger
John MecNellis, fire alarm system superintendent, recently advised the Board that unless the new controls were added to lighten the burden on the line, a breakdown might result. Edward Fillion, Board member, | said a complete system would cost $100,000.
Power Firms Are Ready for | Future Flood
WASHINGTON, Jan, 17 (U. P). Power supplies during future floods along the Ohio River will be protected by improvements and interconnections made, since last year's disastrous floods, the Federal Power Commission and the Public Service Commission of Kentucky announced in a joint report today. The report disclosed results of a survey of power supply mainte nance during flood periods made by the commissions, “Approximately $2,000,000 has been spent or authorized by the utilities within the flond area in measures designed to protect and assure continuity of service,” the report said, The survey covered flood areas in Kentucky, Ohio, Illinois, Indians, and West Virginia. The commisstons concluded: 1. Well-designed and constructed and properly located or protected transmission lines and transmission structures are practically immune to flood damage. 2. Steam-=electric generating =stations can be designed or remodeled to operate under practically any flood condition, 3. Large steam-electric generating stations constructed in the future in this area should be so protected by dikes, flood wails, build ing reinforcements and other design features to make operation secure under flood conditions,
