Abstract
I find the letter of Dr. Stowens which was published in the February issue of Pediatrics (35:355) an extremely disturbing one; not because of its defense of original thinking which is being followed by appropriate, controlled observations, but for its petulant rebuke of an honest request for objective information.
It is true that the inquiring physician will make observations regarding poorly understood illnesses and develop therapeutic approaches therefrom. The person who stops at this point, however, deludes himself regarding his objectivity and becomes a menace to his patients.
