Chicago, 111., May 7. A painless
death sleep administered to imbeciles
and victims of incurable diseases was
advocated today by the Illinois Home
opathic Medical association in a reso
lution drafted for submission by its
legislative committee to the state
general assembly.
Dr. William Alva Guild, legislative
committee chairman, said he regard
ed administration of a death sleep as
a furttier step toward an increasing
ly liberal viewpoint in medical prac
tice. "All medical groups are true to
this thesis of prolonging human life."
he said, "yet the question arises
whether under certain circumstances,
the prolongation of life would be ad
visable. We have had many patients
who have asked to be put out of
their misery when suffering from an
incurable disease."
His statements were reinforced by
Dr. L. Merrill Henikoff, whfc added:
"The cost of maintaining idiots,
monogoloids and suffereis from mal
ignant cancer in homes and institu
tions costs millions of dollars an
nually. The legal recognition of
euthanasia would, in addition to be
ing an economic saving, relieve heart
break and needless suffering."

Campaign Talk
Jouctt Shouse Promises Jobless Re
lief if Democrats Regain Power
Also Defends Raskob
Journal Want As get results.
Austin, Tex., May 12. The opin
ion that the business depression
and not prohibition will be the
paramount issue of the 1932 presi
dential campaign was expressed to
night by Jouett Shouse. chairman
of the democratic national executive
committee.
Addressing the legislature, in a
state which left the democratic fold
to vote for Herbert Hoover in 19 28,
Shouse defended the prohibition pro
posals of Chairman Raskob and said
his party, when it regains power,
will "do the obvious things for the
relief of unemployment instead of
merely talking about them."
In addition, he pledged the sup
port of himself and of Raskob to the
presidential candidate selected by the
democratic convention "whether ha
is wet or dry."
Decries Dry Law Control.
"It would be deplorable," Shouse
said, "if the selec'ion of ur chief
magistrates and the directors of leg
islation who must guide the destines
of the United States should hinge
forever on the Question of prohibi
tion, however grave and far reach
ing that question may be."
"There would be no more justice
in the imposition by a group of wet
commonwealths of their ideas upon
those states which choose to be ab
solutely dry," he added, "than in
the dry states compelling thtir sis
ter commonwealths to accept a sys
tem which they do not think wise
or suitable in relation to home con
ditions." Shouse said he did not see how
any democrat could find fault with
the suggestion of Chairman Raskob
which calls for retention of the Eigh
teenth amendment with an addition
al amendment under which any
state might determine by popular
vote weather it desires to be bound
by the prohibition law.
Explaining that Raskob "has no
more power than he has desire to
coerce the national committee,"
Shouse said the chairman "simply
asked the members of the national
committee to consider the advisa
bility of a change in the present un
satisfactory conditions of prohibi
tion."
Should Have Showdown.
"I do not consider prohibition the
paramount issue of the coming cam
paign," he added, "but I do believe
that ascertainment of the sentiment
of a majority of our party should be
on this as on every other question
of importance within the party.
"I have stressed it here merely
because it has been th" subject oil
varient opinion in our party in tlx
past, to the Drofit of our opponents,
who. as a matter of fact, ore more
divided on the subject than we ever
hav- been."
Describing the business depressi i.
as "transcending all other things in
importance in this country today."
Shouse said the democrats must "m -sent
to the country a real program
of progress" and that their plat
form "must meet every question
that is plaguing the people."
