Physician Confesses Mercy Killings Then Would Do It Again
A Bridgeport physician who learned under Oliver Wendell Holmes recounts killing an incurable patient 48 years ago and says he would repeat it. He cited an emergency case with a severely injured man and notes he gave an extra morphine dose after consultation with the family. He argues private medical sentiment condones mercy killings. The piece also touches on Mussolini's stance, Canada trade talks, and an upcoming Newark airport runway project.
