Austin, October 14—"In the last
forty years great strides have been
made in applied and preventive
medicine. Never have mass con-
trols for the prevention of disease
and medical and surgical treatment
for illness been so highly develop-
ed as today. Unfortunately, how-
ever the significance of this foi
ward movmant is not yet generally
appreciated by the average indivi-
dual. Thougn science, bv way oi
tile family physician, stands ready
to preserve individual health, per-
sonal indifference, self-diagnosis
and self-treatment represent bar-
riers to the helpfulness available In
the doctor’s office," states Dr
Henry A Ffolle, State Health Of-
fice! .
"Unfortunately, the vast majori-
ty of people still consider their
doctor merely as an emergency aid.
So long as they are well or are
not conscious of any physical im-
pairment, they imagine a physici-
an’s services are not required.
Moreover, there are many vvlug
even though ill, jx-rnti! themselves
or their friends to diagnose the
tr.uh!' .a!'.! pre '.vibe • ‘iv.- bottle,!
or tablet medicine for the sup-
posed condition. For this group,
interest in the family doctor only
becomes acute when the self-pre-
scribed remedies fail to cope with
the situation. It can t* frankly
said that thousands upon thousands
of men and women become des-
perately ill oi lose their lives be-
came of tills misconception ot the
doetor'- limitations or because of
an unjustified self-reliance to meet
sickness condition- themselves
“The family physician cannot
fulfill his whole duty to the pub-
lic until his dual function is ap-
preciated and the services lor
which he is1 so eminently qualified
to perform are promptly applied. It
must be understood that personal
health is just that. It cannot be
