SHORTEN MEDICAL COURSE
Academy of Medicine Also Votes for
 Law to Rescind Licenses.

Pittsburg, Pa, Jan. 3.-The con- census of opinion developed during the two days session of the council of the American Academy of Medicine, called chiefly to promote conditions whereby the medical student can complete his educational courses in six years instead of eight, as now re- quired. and to promote uniform regu- lations for the practice of medicine, in the several states, favors general law, providing that state examining and licensing boards under uniform rules and regulations should not only have the power to declare who shall be licensed as physician, but also who shall remain in the profession af- ter receiving a license.
 Such plan will be recommended in resolutions to be presented to the meet. ing of the American Academy of Med icine in Chicago next June, and sup ported by the delegates to the council held in this city. The council was practically unanimous in favor of re- quiring that before admission to med ical college the student shall have a literary or classical degree from a uni versity or college of standing. and oi shortening the time necessary to ac- quire these two degrees. but 1t wa' generally recognized by the speakers that such changes must be brought about gradually.

Helena, Mont, Jan. 3.--Jail sentences were imposed on five Butte union labor leaders by Federal Judge Hunt to-day.
