STATE OF NEW YORK )
COUNTY OF NEW YORK ) SS:-
ELSWORTH F. BAKER, being duly sworn, says:
I am a physician duly licensed to
practice as such and one of the applicants in this proceeding to intervene.
I received my degree of Doctor of Medicine cum laude in 1928 at the Faculty
of Medicine, University of Manitoba, Canada, in 1928. I was on a rotating
interneship at the Vancouver General Hospital, Vancouver, British Columbia
in 1927 and 1928.
I was resident physician at the State
Hospital, Greystone Park, New Jersey from 1928 to 1931 and thereafter Chief
of Women's Service, State Hospital, Marlboro, New Jersey from 1939 to 1948.
From 1940-1948, I was assistant psychiatrist
at Monmouth Memorial Hospital at Long Branch, New Jersey.
For one year, I was chairman of the
Mental Hygiene Committee of the Monmouth Medical Society. I have served
as reporter, assistant secretary-treasurer and secretary-treasurer of the
Monmouth Medical Society, New Jersey.
I am a Licentitiate, Medical Council
of Canada; diplomate of American Board of Psychiatry and Neurology; certificate
in psychiatry from the University of Vienna.
I received my psychoanalytic trianing
under Abram Kardiner and A. A. Brill.
I am a fellow of the American Psychiatric
Association, a fellow of the American Medical Association, a charter member
of the New Jersey Neuropsychiatric Association and a member of the Monmouth
Medical Society.
I am licensed to practice medicine
in New York, New Jersey and California and I am a one-time associate member
of the American College of Physicians.
At present, I am in private practice
in Fair Haven, New Jersey and at 200 East End Avenue, New York City, New
York. My specialty is that of psychiatrist and psychoanalyst.
In the practice of my profession, I
employ the principles of the science of orgonomy and the therapy of the
orgone energy accumulator to the scientific validity of all of which I
hereby attest.
The injunction in this case operates
to curtail this practice of my profession, the earning of my livelihood,
and my development and growth as a scientist and physician.
The issues of law and fact involved
in the main proceeding are precisely similar to those involving my personal
interests in this matter and these personal rights and claims of mine have
not been adequately represented in the main proceeding.
I respectfully request that the Court
grant leave to me and to the other applicants for leave to intervene and
for the other relief all as set forth in the affidavit of Dr. James A.
Willie.
