7J.e PRESIDENT'S MESSAGE

"Sociafiull Cdn work i/1 011/)' two placeJ: ill Heavellwhere they dO Il'1 lI'ilnl if. Dnd ill Heli where they a/read'}, have il."

I want {Q thank you one and all for the confidence imposed by electing me as your President. I have served one month; I hope I am noc ousted by the time YOli read rhis, but should I be, the pleasLlres already experienced will last a lifetime.

I should like especiaUy at this rime to pay rribuce co OllT young men. Nowhere on the face of the globe are there finer specimens of citizens, herrer examples of the thing that has made our nation the envy of the world. These men, given an opponu nity, will make success of any venture assigned to them. I am very happy to repon to you that in no case has one refused committee appointment, in no case has one looked for an excuse co dodge Society work. When a committee meeting is called, these young doctors come, ohen at considerable inconvenience, bur the absentees are not usually from this group. I cannor find words sufficient to express my gratitude for their loyalty, their ambition, their readiness to serve the profession which they hold as a sacred trust. I have vet to call on one who tried to alibi or evade. To see their smiles, to hear their voices which carry the conviction of the patriot, to hear them tell of their children, their home, their hobbies, gives one that indescribable deep down feel ing, that euphoric experience which threatens tears of joy.

I hope in some small way that I can help these men. I hope I can give them opportunity for leadership which they so richly deserve. 1 would hope that providence permits me to set in my frail wayan example worthy of their trust. These men revere medicine as sacred, as they should. If recognition and encouragement is given them we may rest completely assured that success is nor JUSt around the corner; it is here.

Any time, anywhere, I can help you, I shall deem ir a privilege to comply.

"T o me, old age is always fifteen yetlrs older than J am,"-Bernard Baruch.

Wesson, P aSt·President of the American Urological Association, has thoroughly revised a nd practi call y rewritten this editio n of his popular text and has \'"eplaced old illus tratio ns with new ones. Emphasis is on "clinical diagnosis confirmed by roentgenologic fi ndings and proved at operiltion or autopsy". The technic of urography is given detailed con si deration together with the preparation of the patient and causes for error in interpreta tion. The n ormal rena l pelvis and ureter are given due attention as were abnormali ties of the kidney and congenital a nomalies, hydronephrosis and infections, lithiasis and tumors. The last chapter is devoted to miscel. laneous diseases of the genitourinary tract.
