OSTEOPATHY BILL APPROVED
Commissioners Believe Sentiment
Favors Licensing Practitioners.
After Several Public Hearings Sub
stitute for Original Section II
of Measure Is Recommended.

Another step toward the placing Of the
practice of osteopathy on an equal foot
ing with that of allopathy or homeopathy
was taken yesterday when the commis-
sioners returned to Senator GaHinger.
chairman Of the District Committee, with
their approval, the bill recently intro
duced In the Senate which is designed to
regulate the practice of osteopathy in the
District, TO license osteopathic physicians.
and to punish persons violating the pro-
visions OF the proposed act.
Since being referred to the Commits
sions for report and recommendation sew
eral public hearings have been held. and
the objections of the opponents. as well
as the advocates, Of the measure given
due consideration. which resulted in a
recommendation that as a substitute for
the original section Il the following be
adopted:
That oSteopsths,s licensed under this act shall
be subject 70 the same laws rules and regulations
that govern physicians in making AMI fling ceTtif

public health except that they shall nos treat con.
tAsoS 0is1daed HVt a1h4tulst$t &iNtc OF MEDICINES
except in emergency cases OF poisoning. nor treat
obstetrieal cases.
From the evidence presented before the
Commissioners. there is apparently a
strong and extensive popular sentiment
in favor Of licensing competent praeti-
TONERS of the osteopathie school in the
District under certain restrictions. II
also became evident that such action by
Congress would in no way infringe on
the legitimate practice Of either surgery
or medicine.

A Proposed survey with the Purpose
of Establishing a Steamship Line.

establishment only last week Of line of
steamships. sailing from Philadelphia
down the Delaware and up the coast to
Atlantic, Is a departure both novel and
suggestive of great development. For
example. the proposition that similar
line be created between New York City
and Atlantic City has been greeted with
earnest approval.

requisite is the assurance OF a perma-
