14 SHOULD NOT DELAY (Continued from page thirteen) a procedure not be followed, but rather suggested that the food intake of the patient be limited in order to give the gastrointestinal tract an opportunity to rest, since recovery by such a procedure is greatly enhanced. It is felt that the physicians of this section of North Carolina were indeed fortunate to have Doctor Hartman, who is quite an eminent physician in his field, visit this State. Those who were able to attend his lecture felt that they had benefitted considerably from his discussion of this very timely subject. BOOK REVIEW (Continued from page twelve) that the baby's food is disagreeing with it and should be changed. This is frequently far from the truth. The book describes many things that can cause an upset stomach besides the food. Dr. Montague is talking the language of this reviewer always in his ceaseless antagonism to indiscriminate use of cathartics. He describes the indiscriminate and harmful advertising on the billboards of the whole nation, over the radio and in the newspapers of numbers of drugs advertised for indiscriminate use by everybody. He points out that many of these drugs have been definitely labeled by a reliable committee of the American Medical Association as harmful. Dr. Montague advocates one plan that is new to us but which we enthusiastically endorse, and that is the following: "If every person hurt by a patent medicine filed suit for damages against the laxative firm just as he would if he were hit by an automobile, I am quite sure that these same manufacturers would be infinitely more careful in the claims they make, and June, 1941 if some public-minded citizen would petition the Post Office Department to place a fraud order on these laxative advertisements as they appear in the magazines and newspapers of the nation, I am sure that all this wanton destruction of people's health would speedily come to a close."—G.M.C.
