AMA Counters Kennedy’s Plea for
Support of Medical Care for the Aged
NEW YORK Ul) — The American
Medical Assn, has countered Presi
dent Kennedy’s plea for support
of his medical care for the aged
plan with an attack on the meas
ure as a cruel hoax that would
“heartlessly ignore millions” who
need coverage.
In a paid, nationally televised
reply to the President, association
leaders said Monday night the pub
lic is in danger of being “blitzed,
brainwashed into swallowing” a
plan that would disrupt health
services and turn patients into
impersonal numbers.
The Kennedy-backed King-An
derson measure provides for medi
cal care for the aged under social
security.
Following the AMA telecast, Sec
retary of Health, Education and
Welfare Abraham Ribicoff declared
that it was “just another staging
of ‘let’s fool the American people
again’,” and charged that it omitted
important factors.
The AMA representatives spoke
from Madison Square Garden, the
same spot from which Kennedy
urged support of the King-Ander
son measure a day earlier in a
free-time public service national
telecast.
But whereas Kennedy spoke be
fore a live audience of 17,500, the
two AMA spokesmen sat alone in
the vast arena—an arrangement
that they said “may help us get
across to the American people the
grossly unfair disadvantage under
which we doctors are laboring to
make our voices and our reasons
heard.”
Refuse to Carry Program
A Boston station, WBZ-TV, re
fused to carry the program. This
brought a complaint from the as
sociation that it had been blacked
out in the President’s home town.
The station said its decision was
Wife of Juneau Doctor Taken
To Seattle In Mercy Flight
JUNEAU <m — Mrs. J. W. Gib
son, the wife of a prominent Ju
neau physician, was flown to Seat
tle on a Coast Guard mercy flight
early today for treatment of what
was described as a rare bone
disease.
The Coast Guard aircraft, from
Annette Island, left Juneau at
1:40 am. and arrived at Sand
Point Naval Air Station, Seattle,
at 6:58 am. Mrs. Gibson, accom
panied by her husband, was taken
immediately to University Medical
Center Hospital.
Doctors at the hospital said the
Juneau woman was in an “unsatis
factory” condition.

based on a policy of not selling
time “to organizations or individ
uals for discussion of controversial
issues in which such organizations
or individuals are involved.”
Dr. Edward R. Annis of Miami,
Fla., the main AMA speaker, said
the relationship between a doctor
and his patient is one of the few
things “which touch so close to
God. He urged viewers to con
sult their doctors about the meas
ure.
“Our fees are not involved,” he
declared. “Our practice of quality
medicine is. Your health is.”
Annis, chairman of the AMA’s
National Speakers Bureau, said the
administration-backed plan “waste
fully covers millions who do not
need it” and ignores millions who
do.
“It will, undercut and destroy
the wholesome growth of private,
voluntary insurance and pre-pay
ment health programs for the aged
which offer flexible benefits in the
full range of individual needs,”
Annis said.
“It will lower the quality and
availability of hospital services
throughout our country. It will
stand between the patient and his
doctor. And it will serve as the
forerunner of a different system
of medicine for all Americans.
“Don’t mistake it,” Annis de
clared. “England’s nationalized
medical program is the kind of
thing they have in mind for us
eventually.”
Dr. Leonard W. Larson of Bis
marck, S.D., president of the 185,
000-member AMA, said the pro
gram would deprive older people
of “the American system of medi
cine, based upon the private doctor
treating the private patient.”
In the last 20 years alone, he
said, this system has added 10 years
to the life of every American.
