This is IA cents per capita more than
they should have had by the same
process of reasoning q month ago.
Compared with a year ago there
was on June 1. $14,000.000 more
money in circulation. and yet strange
as it may seem. the per capita was
AZ cents less. This. it Is said, is due
to the increase in population. it being
proportionately more than the growth
of the circulating medium.
The general stock Of money in the
United States on June I. was 3S.419,-

AUTOMOBILE MAY
BECOME CURSE
Chancellor Day Takes Fling at
This Pleasure Of the
People.

Syracuse, N. T., June 6.-There are
so many young men coursing about
the country in automobiles, and their
pleasure absorbs such large share
of the productive capital Of the coun-
try that Chancellor James R. Day Of
Syracuse university believes 1t 10 be-
coming a question IL the automobile ia
not a curse to the country.
The chancellor was speaking to the
graduating class Of the university to-
day on self-sacriflce and self-denial
an dhe chose the automobile as q
broad and apparent illustration" Of q
luxury that too often is not sacrificed.
Young mechanics an dclerks and
businessmen" he said, "who need all
Of their capital, are mortgaging their
homes by the thousands and losing
their positions often by their infatua-
ton with this form of pleasure.
It is said that about 500,000.00o dol
lars are invested In the automobile
trade and this enormous capital is
non-productive. That 10, 1t adds COM
paratively nothing to the wealth of
the people. but o nthe contrary alb
serbs it. 1t means ninety per cent of
wasted money and wasted time. A
certain per cent returns in business
uses and wholesome rest and recrea-
tion.

sure to come because Of what will be
called an attack on great industry,
but / address myself to the abuse of
self indulgence in . good thing. l

Lack of self denial is accountable,
the chancellor believes. for q lower
marriage rate.
IF you want to know" he said.
"why men marry less than of old.
perhaps the. secret is in the false
whim Of supporting wife. He can
not afford to support a wife. the
bachelor says. No woman ought to

FRANCE WATCHING
BELGIUM SYSTEM
Gives Parties Representation
According to Their Strength
Without Majority Rule.

faflS, june 0.-l0 france, Wnero
electoral reform is now the issue, the
recent elections ~. Belgium were
watched with special interest because
there representation proportionelle"
or r. p, as 1t is fathiliarly called here,
is in full operation. -
r. P. is an elaborately worked out
system to give all political parties in
a community representation accord
ing to the number Of votes polled, in
others words. the abandonment of the
absolute domination: OF majority rule
now in vogue in France and most
other continental countries:
The existing system of electing
members to the chamber of deputies,
in whose hands the political power
Of the state is concentrated, is Sc
verely criticized, not only on the
ground that ~majorittes in small dis
tricts make local Considerations out
weigh national interests, but on the
broader ground that the minorittes,
often times only Q few votes behind
the matorities. have 10 representation
voices heard in the councils of the
nation.
The remedy proposed is for larger
districts, electing from eight to fifteen
deputies upon p gel1ar;.,s platform: with
proportional representation for The
minorities when they are. OF suficient
size to cast votes Of respectable di-
mensions.
The electoral experts sent to Bel
gium generally commend the system
there. but take exception to the plural
voting enjoyed by larger tax payers
and persons with advanced education
al attainments. A sample of how the
system works in Belgium, disregard.
ing the question of plural voting, can
be gathered from the results at Ant
werp where thirteen seats we're to be
filled. The Catholic ticket polled S2.-
,878 votes, the liberal 65,541 and the
socialist 1922. Under the system of
majorities rule the Catholics would
have captured the entire 13 seats. I'm
der the r. P: system, each of the to-
tai votes received by ticket was
divided by l, 2. 3. 4 up to 13, and the
Quotients of these divisions became.
in the order Of numerical precedence,
the order OF dividing the seats be-
tween the parties.
In this particular case it resulted
in giving the first seat to the first
Catholic, the second to liberal. the
third to Catholic, fourth liberal,
fifth Catholic, sixth liberal, seventh
Catholic, eighth liberal, ninth. social
list, tenth Catholic, eleventh Catholic,
twelfth liberal and thirteenth Catho-
lie.
In other words. the Catholics upon
their total vote secured seven seats,
the liberals five and the socialists one.
which works out almost mathemati-
cally according to the proportion Of
the votes cast.
1t is interesting to note that in
France. where majorities rule in poll
tics. and in business affairs-for in
stance stock companies and corpora
tions-the law takes particular pains
to prevent an individual or two from
controllins.

TOO MANY POOR
PHYSICIANS

erly Qualified, Could Supply;
Demand

Washington, June 6.-The Carnegie
foundation for the advancement OF
teaching issues today most stgnt-
ficant report on medical education In
the United States and Canada. The
report was prepared by Abra-
ham Flexner and contains an intro
ductory statement by DR.. Henry 8.
Pritchett, president Of the Carnegie
foundation.
President Pritchett's introduction
is clear, sympathetic, and cogent
statement Of the purpose Of the in
vestigation and the conclusions to
which It leads. He points out that
the academic institutions originally
undertaken by the foundation soon
raised the question Of the proper re-
lation between professional schools
and universities. and that an effort
to ascertain this relationship at once
led, to thorough study of profession
al schools as such. The foundation
has-so President Pritchett- states
consistently held that chartered
teaching institutions are public serv-
Ice corporations, that the public is
entitled to know the truth about
them, and that the institutions them
selves should cooperate in the effeGt
to learn and state the facts. With
few exceptions, medical schools, have
accepted this view and have freely
assisted the work.
The signfaean facts which the re-
port proves are. in President Pritch-
ott's judgment, the following:
There has been for a quarter Of q
century past an enormous over-pro-
duction Of i'll trained doctors.
This enormous over-production OF
iiltrained men is to be ascribed to
the existence Of Independent or pro-
prietary schools, commercially man
aged and dependent upon fees for
support.
Tho cheap quality Of most Of the
instruction furnished by medical
schools.
The fallacy Of the idea of these in
effective schols are justified by the
argument that they enable poor boys
to get q chance in the medical pro-
fession.
The necessity for a complete re-
vision Of the arrangements that now
hold as between medical schools and
the hospitals in which their clinical
instruction is given.
The report that follows Is based on
q personal investigation of every
medical school in the United States
and Canada by its author. Mr.. Flex-
ner. Mr.. Flexner is q teacher, not .
