TWO THE MICHIGAN DAILY SATURDAY, NOVEMBER 9, 1935 'I Doctors Do Not Favor Practice Of Euthanasia Possibility Of Error In Diagnosis Is Too Great, Says Professor Coller (Continued from Page 1) est of judgment and knowledge, which is a large assumption, there would be basis for application of the idea. It might, however, be subject to abuse. It is well worthy of con- sideration." Dr. William M. Brace of the Health Service expressed the belief that if euthanasia became a law it would have to be administered by a board or commission appointed by the State Medical Society or the American Medical Association to avert serious accidents. "If we could be sure that such a law would be carried out in an ideal- istic way, it should be given very serious consideration," Dr. Margaret Bell of the Health Service said. She felt, however, that we do not have enough definite information on this subject to map a plan or action. Another objection is, according to Dr. Bell, that no matter how high the ethics of the medical profession are, some people would take advan- tage of such a situation. There have been many cases, she remarked, where a patient thought to be doomed to a slow, painful 'death has to a con- siderable measure regained his health. That euthanasia should be the sub- ject of considerable thought was ex- pressed by Dr. Lavinia G. MacKaye, instructor in pediatrics, but she felt that from the standpoint of a pedia- trician a board or commission should decide upon anydaction taken in the case of a child doomed to imbecility if a euthanasia law should be passed. She also believed that the burden placed upon society by institutions for the care of the mentally deficient and incurables is not heavy enough to necessitate the consideration of such a law now.

"Where," demanded Chairman John S. McDonald of various em- ployes marshaled before him, "is that $97,000 bid for our light wine stock? And who is Mr. Michaels?" With tiresome regularity the an- swer came to both questions, "I don't know." Chairman McDonald announced following Tuesday's commission meeting that a "Mr. Michaels" of New York had submitted a successful bid of $97,000 for the state's complete light wine stock, which cost the com- mission $350,000. Asked today who "Mr. Michaels" is, McDonald summoned Walter A. Rice, attorney employed by the com- mission, to answer. Rice said he didn't know. McDonald asked to see the bid, and Rice said he didn't have it. McDonald called Michael E. Car- penter, head of the alcohol control division, to his office and repeated the questions - and Carpenter repeated the answers. Gilbert H. Isbister, sec- retary of the commission, stood four- square on the same' answers. McDonald insisted the last time he saw the bid was when Joseph Schles- singer, a commission employe, had it in his hand and was leading the un- identified "Mr. Michaels' 'toward the Greek Royalists Stage Demonstration -Associated Press Photo. The elections to determine whether the monarchy would be restored in Greece was a sign for royalists to stage long and hearty demonstra- tions for King George 11. An almost unanimous vote for the exiled leader was recorded. State Liquor Commission caen't I f~f~ --~I1~fI~' ~II~h W .!~ f) 7 i, 1UwineD BiD Schlessinger declared he had never seen the bid and does not know who Mr. Michaels is. The chairman de- clared he would investigate the bidder' before signing any contract and would require him to prove that he represents a reputable firm and will not sell the wine in Michigan. Rice told the chairman he under- stood Michaels intended to form a company to sell the wine in Mich- igan. Isbister said Michaels was ac- companied to the commission by sev- eral friends, apparently interested in the outcome of Michaels' bid. The commission has not received a deposit on the bid. None of the wine has been delivered. McDonald ad- mitted the commission wouldhnot know where to deliver it. The chair- man intimated that the bid --if it is found - may be rejected. J. J. Sugarman, Inc., of Los An- geles, Calif., submitted a bid of $94,- 000 for the wine and met a rejection. The bid was raised Wednesday to $110,000, but McDonald ruled the bidding had closed. The wine, all under 16 per cent alcoholic content, cannot be sold through commission stores, McDon- ald said, and the commission is will- ing to accept a loss and clear its shelves. Padelf ord To Give Sermon Here Sunday Dr. Frank W. Padelford, secretary of the Northern Baptist Board of Education, will speak Sunday morn- ing at the worship hour at the First Baptist Church and will meet various groups later for conference on edu- cation. His engagements include a confer- ence with the Baptist student lead- ers, the Sunday morning sermon at the church and a conference with the young people's group of High School age. On Monday with Rev. R. E. Sayles pastor of the church and Mr. A. E. Chapman, student worker, he will attend a luncheon at the Ply- mouth Baptist Church arranged for the pastors of the Wayne Association and their wives. The closing conference will be held in connection with a supper at the Ann Arbor Baptist Church to which all parents of young people of the local churches and from the sur- rounding towns have been invited. In all the gatherings higher education will be stressed. Dr. Padelford comes to Ann Arbor from Pontiac where he met a large group of young people last evening. While in Ann Arbor he will be a guest of Rev. Howard R. Chapman and Mrs. Chapman at the Roger Williams guild house. THOMAS SHEPPERD DIES LEBANIN, Ind., Nov. 8. - (P) - Thomas S.

Car Is Catapaulted Into Freight Train A 1935 Model Essex Terraplane was completely demolished early yester- day morning when it was struck by a freight train near the Foster station crossing of the Michigan Central Railroad. Roy Boshaw, Milner Hotel, was driving south on the Foster road when a rear tire blew out. The ex- plosion threw the car about 20 feet from the road and onto the rail- road tracks. The passengers at- tempted to flag the oncoming train but failed. The only method of warn- ing the engineer was the lighting of matches. There was no time to start a signal fire. Seek Robbers Of Mail Train In North Ohio Thieves Steal Securities From Railroad Car After Sub-Machine Gun Raid GARRETTSVILLE, O., Nov. 8. - (/P) - A widespread search, one of the most extensive in recent northern Ohio history, was under way today after six mail car robbers seized $34,- 000 in currency and $12,450 in secur- ities at the Erie railroad station here. With every movement carefully planned, the gang held up more than a dozen persons, covering them with sub-machine guns and pistols soon after train No. 626 stopped yesterday afternoon. The engineer, fireman and mem- bers of the mail car crew were ordered onto the station platform alongside men and women bystanders. Pouches containing the money were thrown out of the car, to be carried by two victims to the gang's automobile. One shot was fired, which grazed the forehead of Orlin Workman, a mail clerk. In a small sedan, apparently pur- chased expressly for the robbery, the gang fled toward Ravenna. The search today, in which United States postal inspectors and police took the lead, was centered in the larger northern Ohio cities, Akron, Cleve- land, Warren, Youngstown and Can- ton. The currency was consigned to the Warren, O., Second National bank for use in meeting a payroll of the Re- public Steel corporation. The robbers knew exactly what they were after, for one of them shouted: "Where's that other bag that was put on in Cleveland- the one from the Federal Reserve bank?"
