...would be foolish to assume that I was anywhere nearly as learned on international relations as Mr. Roosevelt but I do know one thing. Mr. Roosevelt, if he lives as long as most Presidents, won't live much longer, and so has nothing to lose. But I and my friends have to fight the war. In as much as I am single, 23, and ripe for the army, I'd much rather hear a little reverse propaganda on the whole business.

...reflection concerning the role of the individual physician in the society of tomorrow. Just as our modern high speed motor ambulances are a far cry from the jolting buggy of the Old Country Doctor, so vast changes have taken place in the methods of medical diagnosis and treatment.
