STATE MEDICAL BOARD.
DIR. w. T. GOtt, of Charlottesville, Re-
Elected President.

The State Board of Medical Registration
and Examination was in session yesterday
at the Statehouse. The meeting was for
the election of officers for the ensuing
year and the hearing Of cases that had
been held up for various reasons. The cleo
ton of officers resulted in the selection of
Dr. w. T. Gott of Charlottesville, presi-
dent; Dr. w. A. Sturgeon, of Muncie, vice
president; DR.. W. F. Curryer, of Indianap-
oils, secretary, and DR.. James M. Dinner,
of Fort Wayne treasurer. j. c. Webster,
of Lafayette, is the retiring president and
the fifth member of the board
Much of the session was devoted to hear
ing the cases of physicians throughout the
State who have been denied certificates on
the grounds of fraud and misrepresenta-
ton in the procurement of county licenses
on which they applied for certificates from
the state board. The board contends that
in any case where it appears an applicant
has obtained a diploma by purchase or in
any improper manner or from disreputa-
BILE medical college, and presents a license
from the county clerk obtained on that di-
ploma, that such license should not be rec
ognized, and has refused to grant a GER
tificate Of qualification to such person.
Those physicians holding county licenses
recognize such license, no matter how OBJ
tanned, even though on a bogus diploma or
by misrepresentation and fraud The board
declines to issue certificates of qualifca-
ton to holders of purchased diplomas or
the holders of county licenses not legiti-
mately obtained, unless compelled to do so
by the courts. The board desires that
all schools of medicine in each county, so
far as practical select representatives of
their respective schools, and these various
county committees confer with each other
IN canvassing their respective counties and
examine the county records and report to
the state board all persons practicing med
iclne who have not secured their county
license. 1t is the desire that no school dis
elimination should prevail, but that all
should be reported who neglect or refuse to
comply with the law. The county clerks
reports are now being received by the
state board which show all physicians who
have secured their county licenses Ip 10
Jan. l, and when all of these reports are in
the board will be in a condition to pro-
coed against those who have not complied
with the new law. The next meeting of
the board will be held Feb Is
