A. Is. POI, to regulate the practice of
veterinary medicine and surgery in the
State of California, provoked some dis
cussion. The substance of the bill is as
follows:
No person shall practice veterinary medi-
clne ana surgery, or any branch thereof, as q
profession in this State, for compensation or
shall, either directly or indirectly. receive or
accept for his services as q practitioner of vet
Urinary medicine ana surgery any fee or re
ward, e.. oept he be duly registered in the book
for that purpose in the Office of the Clerk of
the county in which he resides. No person
shall be entitled to register as such pr;Ic-
titioner unless he be a graduate. of a legally
chartered or Incorporated college or unfver-
sity, except as provided for in this Act. ANY
person VINO has been practicing veterinary
1nediclne and surgery as n profession in this
state for a period of not less than three Years
preceding the passage of this Act without
naVlng obtained q diploma from q legally
chartered or Incorporated veterinary college
OF university, as provided for in Section 2 of
THIS Act, must register within six months
after the passage of this Act. upon making
ana filing with the Clerk of the county in
which he resides an affldaVit stating that he
had been SO pEacticing veterinary medicine
ana surgery for the period hereinbefore pre-
scribed.
1t was claimed that this bill would
work an injustice in counties remote
from the large cities, and would virtually
prevent the practice of many wcll-iIi-
formed people who are perfectly compe-
tent to treat domestic animals. An
amendment confining the provisions of
the bill to cities of over $1,000 inhabitants
was offered. Pending the debate on this
amendment the House took recess till 2
o'clock p. NJ.
