In the course of his letter this correspondent declares that] while the German doctors had 56 foreign deaths in their practice during. the year 1918, the two British firms, who presumably had more patients Įthan the German, “averaged out "— whatever that means-only 47 during the same period. It is not clear whether the correspondent isof opinion that the greater number of deaths among the patients treated by the German doctors was due to lack of skill or to deliberate malice. He does not even think it necessary to ascertain what was the actual num different nationalities. Medical men. ber of patients treated by doctors af

will be interested to learn that in thei view of this gentleman, who seems to have the intelligence of a South Sea Islander, every.case of death may fairly be put down as a black mark against the physician. But if the correspondent of the “N_C. Daily News" shrinks from suggesting actual murder, he does not hesitate to ascribe the vilest "motives to the future practice of the German doctora if they are allowed to remain in China. He suggests that they will be enabled to deliberately graf life-lone drug habits on weak-willedi||2 patients,” which sounds like a quota. tion from an advertisement of Pink Pills for Pale People, though how a life-long habit can be grafted de liberately or otherwise he does not explain. Perhaps it is his gram. mar that is at fault, as is suggested by his split infinitives and genera: incoherence.

secrets out of his patients and black, mail them, and so on. It is scarcely necessary to say that this charitable person believes in the German Black List of secret vice which was alleged to exist by the witnesses in the Pemberton-Billing case. Of no im portarce whatever is the fact that the woman upon whose evidence the pond existence of the book chiefly rested afterwards" prosecuted for bigamy, when the evidence disclosed her to be an habitual and systematic liar. It does not occur to his.addled brain that if it is true the German Black List contains the names of England's leading men," including statesmen, judges, and eminent publicista, all charged with unspeak abie vice, the condition of Eng-|- land must be as decadent and“: dé praved as some German writers have maliciously asserted.In his eager ness to asperse the German doctors it is immaterial that he is disgrace- | fully maligning his own countrymen as well as exhibiting his own gross- ness. Four years ago it would have seemed impossible that any decent man could have been capable of in- diting such a letter to the Press, and still more that any decent journal I would publish it. Yet the "N_C. Daily News not only, inserts this extraordinary farrago of mali cious nonsense, but virtually endorses it in an editorial paragraph. Journa lism appears to be at a low ebb in Shangbai. When the Rev. CyDar- went, whose sermons, are printed at length in the Shanghai journal, has exhausted the wickedness-of Lord Morley's unbelief, perhaps he turn his attention, to the.com dents who are columns...!
