Some people mistakenly bejJjJieve that a necropsy means muti- Silation of a body.

Iteventually the pattern of symp- tams, diagnosis, treatment and ature of the diseases are discussed in the medical literature i^o that the medical profession generally can be educated to an mderstanding of these disorders ind their symptoms. Necropsies or postmortem examinations are never performed without permission of the nearest The physician who negrequest permission is as blameworthy as the person who to give it, •JK» Some persons withhold authori- *2jJiation of a postmortem for re- %Hgious reasons, but nothing has ygbeen found in the tenets of the christian or Jewish religions ich can be considered a basis >r this belief.

What greater contribution can anyone make than to permit studies of unsolved or difficult problems of medicine? One can donate generously to campaigns for research and contradictorily defeat the very purpose by refusing permission to have a necropsy performed on the body of a loved one, oblivious to the thought that this one concession may prevent the spread of the disease in the family itself. Withholding the sanction of a necropsy can be attributed largely to fear and ignorance, two factors that can be dispelled once an effort is made to understand.

It's my opinion as a citizen that they were elected to see that the right laws are made for the people, as a whole, and certainly the opinion of six must be fairer than that of one, or we wouldn't need six trustees, we would just have a one-man rule.
