No.1  \n## DOCTORS OPPOSE NEW RULESGOVERNING U.S.EXECUTIONS\n\nA group of doctors and other medical profes-sionals on Dec.29 protested new Federal regula-tions requiring medical personnel to participate inlethal injection executions for Federal crimes.  \nDr.Thomas P.Houston,director of preven-tive medicine and public health for the AmericanMedical Association (AMA),told a news confer-ence in Chicago that the AMA remains opposed todoctors participating in executions because \"theOath of Hippocrates..says that physicians shallabove all do no harm.\"  \n\"Requiring physicians to participate goesagainst the very nature of the practice of medicineand what physicians believe is the compassionatedelivery of care to their patients,\"Houston said.\"It is highly unethical for physicians to participatein executions.\"  \nAt issue is language in proposed rules requir-ing the marshal and warden of a given institution toselect personnel for an execution \"including onephysician.\"Also at issue is language requiring adoctor to determine when a condemned person isdead.  \nThe death penalty is imposed for certainFederal drug-related crimes.  \n\"We-the American Medical Association,theAmerican College of Physicians,the AmericanPublic Health Association,the American NursesAssociation,the Society of CorrectionalPhysicians...-are gravely concerned about theproposed regulations,said Dr.Armond Start,director of the National Center for Correctional  \nPage 1  \nJamuary 13,1993  \nIN THIS ISSUE                 \nFEDERAL EXECUTIONS:  \nDoctors Oppose New

is not a violation of constitutional rights toprohibit inmates from smoking in the HarrisCounty,Texas,Jail,a Federal judge ruled in lateDecember.  \nIn making the ruling,U.S.District JudgeLynn Hughes dismissed two lawsuits in whichinmates said being forced to suffer nicotine with-drawal is cruel and unusual punishment.  \n\"Smokers required to quit on arrest willsuffer,\"Hughes wrote,\"but their suffering is onlyslightly different from the mental and physicaldisruption that other prisoners suffer from the lossof their eating,exercise,sex,drinking and sleepingpatterns when they are free.

Federal execu-tions even though such participation is forbid-den by the Hippocratic Oath and by our profes-sional ethics and standards of behavior.\"  \nThe medical groups accuse the BushAdministration of trying to push through theregulations at the end of the year in hopes nottoo many people will notice.  \nDr.Start's full statement follows.  \nStatement by  \nArmond

these proposedregulations for execution by lethal injection will notroceive adequate public attention because they arebeing circulated at the end of the year and during thevery last few weeks of
