The Doctor's Opinion
If any
feel that as
psychiatrists directing a
hospital for
alcoholics we
appear
somewhat
sentimental, let them
stand with us a while on the
firing line, see the
tragedies, the
despairing wives, the
little children; let the
solving of these
problems
become a
part of their
daily work, and even of their
sleeping moments, and the
most
cynical will not
wonder that we have
accepted and
encouraged
this
movement.
