OSTEOPATHS AGAIN
Case in Supreme Court Today
to Test the New
Law,

A test case of great interest will be
argued today in the Supreme Court. 1t is
that Of the State against Biggs, from
Guilford, and will test the constitutionality
of the law passed by the last Legislature
defining the practice of medicine and
surgery and requiring osteopathists to be
examined before the State Board of
Medical Examiners on subjects touching
their science before being licensed to prac-
tice.
The defendant in this case. A. c. Biggs,
practised in Greensboro behind the sign
of a Non Medical Physician" Life
System of Douglass Healing He was
indicted for practising medicine and sur
gerry without having obtained license
from the State Board of Medical Exam
ners, and the State obtained judgment in
:he lower court. Now Or" Biggs appeals
to the Supreme Court claiming that the
law is unconstitutional in that it discrimi-.
mates against the osteopathist and i'll ia
vor Of the regular school of medicine He
contends that the osteopaths should be
represented on the State Board.
The State contends that the statute is
a legitimate exercise of the police power
of the State, and that its purpose is to re-
qulre an examination in order to exclude
the incompetent osteopath. 1t will be re-
membered that recently the Supreme
Court held in the Mcknight case that one
practising osteopathy did not come within
the scope of the statute regulating the
practice of medicine. Since then the Leg
islature of 1903 gave more comprehen-
sive definition of the expression practice
OF medicine and surgery" and the defend
ant was indicted under this act
The defendant, DR. A. c.. Biggs will be
represented today by Messrs. C. NJ. Sted-
man and z. J. Justice. Attorney General
Gilmer has prepared the brief and will
argue the case for the State.

And it was adjudged unnece15ary either to
