The Golden Age, “Let Us Be Fair to the M.D.'s”

11 décembre 1929 · pp.179-180 · Woodworth, Knorr & Martin (The Golden Age), Brooklyn, New York

“In fact the general impression conveyed through your columns has been highly derogatory to the medical profession, and many, as novices, are unintentionally led to believe that our M.D.'s are “all wet”.”

A contributed article taking issue with the magazine's own coverage. It reviews the aluminium, dietetics, vivisection and tonsillectomy material, defends the removal of diseased tonsils, and concludes that doctors 'individually ... are no less capable of honesty and mercy than any other individual'. The issue contents page lists the article under 'Home and Health'.

Note sur la fiabilité. Read in the OCR text layer of the archive.org scan on 19 September 2026 on the leaves mapped to printed pages 179-180; the contents page (printed page 178) lists 'Let Us Be Fair to the M.D.'s'. No by-line was legible in the scan; a reader's letter in the issue of 2 April 1930 (page 438) refers to 'an article written by Harold L. Dawson' in 'your December 11 (1929) issue', which is the likeliest attribution.

Provenance de la numérisation. Internet Archive item 'golden-age-1929'; page numbers from the _djvu.xml leaf mapping joined to _page_numbers.json, cross-checked against the issue masthead 'Volume XI ... Wednesday, December 11, 1929 ... Number 267' and the running head 'DECEMBER 11, 1929'.

Notes. The magazine printed this dissent from its own health coverage in its 'Home and Health' section. A reader's letter in the issue of 2 April 1930, page 438, from E. J. Stanvalt, refers to 'your December 11 (1929) issue of The Golden Age ... an article written by Harold L. Dawson'.
