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
.
