(ftiAigS
^ **Good morning, Doc. Your good wife tells me
you’re working night and day now that so
I many of the younger doctorsare in the army:”
| “That'• right. Judge, and I’m glad I’m still
* able to do it Had a long letter from Harry...
i that bright young fellow I was breakin’ in to
I take over my practice. He said the boys in
the service are getting the best medical care
of any armed force in our history. They
really should with all those brilliant doctors
and plenty of supplies to work with.”
_ "Speaking of supplies. Doc, not many
people realize that a large part of the alcohol,
required to make the medical supplies that'
are being used right this minute to alleviata
pain, combat infection and save human
lives, is produced by the beverage distilling
industry. For nearly two years this entire
industry has been working night and day
producing nothing but alcohol for ths
government's program." ; <
"Nobody knows better than I, Judge,
what an important contribution to our war
effort that has been.”
