DEPLORE GOSSIP ‘ON BIRTH PERILS
Obstetricians Agree Effect On Prospective Mothers Is Often Bad.
By JOE COLLIER
Bridge table gossip about the “horrors” of child delivery can have serious psychological effects on ‘the expectant mother, it was declared here today as obstetricians from 28 states met in three-day conference. The assembled physicians were members of the Central Association of Obstetricians and Gynecologists, meeting at the Hotel Lincoln in their 25th annual session. Dr. Roy E. Crowder, Sioux City, Ia., and Dr. Harold Anderson, Detroit, who read papers before the group as the program began, said that these fears, built up from hearing often exaggerated reports of mothers about their experiences in labor, caused many expectant mothers to approach the delivery with unnecessary fears. Factor in Birth Rate Because of these fears, they said,
she may become unco-operative with
her physician, either prolonging
i labor or influencing him to operate
before the proper time. After the delivery, these same fears may produce a fear of pregnancy, a fact which they said is a definite factor in the birth rate. They say that studies have shown
| that the proper use of drugs and
anesthesia to minimize labor pains
{ has little effect on the infant. They
admitted that women “may be getting soft, thinking too much of creature comfort” and demanding the elimination of more and more of the labor pain.

Dr. Gustafson Heard The doctors warned, however, against the “indiscriminate use of pain relieving drugs by untrained

It has been argued that many cases of spastic paralysis are caused by use of drugs during labor, but Dr. Gerald W. Gustafson, Indianapolis, in discussing one of the papers today, said a study he made at Riley showed that there are some cases of spastic paralysis where there was no asphyxiation. The conclusion, he said, was that
normal labor could be responsible
for brain injuries in the infant. Advertisement

Willkie, Republican Presidential nominee, calling on the nation to observe Columbus Day Saturday by “looking once more upon this nation for what it is—dynamic and still unexplored,” was issued yesterday by the Republican National Committee. “On this day let us pause to remember that the discovery of a new land’ of opportunity was brought about by the original thinking and individual initiative of a persevering Italian sailor,” Mr. Willkie said. “We have scarcely begun to build this wonderful America. I insist that it is still a land of opportunity—unlimited opportunity. I will not accept the idea that the American expanson is at an end . . . together let us rebuild our world, If we are to remain free, let us on this day resolve to follow the courageous
example of Christopher Columbus|.” |}
An exchange of letters between Mr. Willkie and five-year-old Betsy Kyle of Manhassett, N. ¥., was revealed by the committee. The child wrote :“Dear Mr. Willkie, I am five years old and in first grade. I have a Willkie button. I hope you will be .elected President. From Betsy Kyle.” Mr. Willkie replied: “Dear Betsy: Your little letter gave me a great deal of pleasure. ... I want to be elected President, too, and one of the reasons is that I want this to be a better and happier country for little boys and girls. . . . It makes me unhappy to think of all the little boys and girls who are not having
