from the first of the year.
Another thing-if his perpetual cal
endar is adopted--beginning on Mon.
day. the inventor guarantees that
there will be no Friday the thirteenth.
because Friday would always fall on
the fifth, twelfth, nineteenth or twen-
ty-seventh. Saturday would get the
thirteenth and three other days OF the
month. and each other day OF the
week would have four particular days
of the month allotted to IT.; SO that X
you make a date for say three months
ahead, you would know at once on
what day of the week II would fall.
No notes would ever mature on q
Sunday.
The man who proposes this system
says the old names Of the months
could be retained, but he believes 1t
would be more convenient II they
were known by numbers, inserting
the two half-months under their
names In midsummer and midwinter.
This plan does not upset the Gregor-
ian year, but adopts IL and systema-
ties 1t, the author claims. He provides
brief tables of rules by which any OF
the days can be expressed In the exist
ing calendar style. He points out
that his model year shows less dis
crepancy from the Gregorian year
than the 360-day calendars of the old
Persians and the French revolution,
and besides does not have the fault Of
the seven days not being Invisible into
the total of the days of the year.

TOO MANY DOCTORS, SAYS
CARNEGIE FOUNDATION
Report Recommends Sweeping Reform
In System Of Medical
Association.


PTTTSBURG, Pa, July 25.--That in
the past 25 years there has been in
the United States an Enormous over
production of uneducated and Ill
trained medical practitioners" and
that two medical schools, one in Pitts
burg and the other in Philadelphia,
are sufficient to supply the state with
physicians, are two startling state
mefits In the report of the Carnegie
Foundation, made public here today.
The investigation OF medical schools
throughout the country was carried
on under the direction of Abraham
Flexner. The introduction which rec
ommends the most sweeping reforms
In the system of medical education,
was written by Henry 8. Pritchett,
president of the foundation.
Some of the allegations made In the
report of Mr.. Flexner are contained
In the following sentences.
Neither of the Arkansas medical
schools has q single redeeming fea-
ture."
Really satisfactory medical educa-
ton is not now to be had In Alabama.
Chicago is, in respect to medical
education. the plague spot OF the coun-
try"
Iowa has two and three times as
many doctors as are needed"
Colorado - overcrowded with doc
tors"
AN Iowa school Is disgrace to the
state and should be summarily sup
pressed"

NEW YORK, July 25.--Big finan-

there was decentralization on the ex-

One disquieting feature was the
sharp advance of corn options In Chi

crops were in danger and that railroad
earnings from crop moving would
show a heavy falling of. 1t was said
that much of the selling In Reading

On the heels OF Esperanto proposed
as a universal language, spelling re-
form. international commercial codes,
and so forth, comes project FOR q
reform of the calendar. Fritz Refining
haus, a Swiss, Is presenting to the
world a model perpetual calendar
which does not have to be changed
from year to year. He expresses the
hone that IL will be universally adopt
ed, beginning with 1912.
Herr Reininghaus has favored The
Times with modest pamphlet
which he has published at zurich
Switzerland, and which explains the
reformed calendar.
IL the Swiss savant has his way
about 1t there will be IL months OF
% days each. This leaves over ~
days In an ordinary year. He ais
poses of these by making OF them a
summer half-month of IA days insert
ed after the sixth month, and win
ter half-month of IA days inserted ar
ter the twelfth. month.
The extra day left over at the end
of the year is a curiosity, In Refining
haus' system. II does not fall on any
day of the week. II stands by itself.
He would call It the Year-end day. and
you could observe II as a Sunday,
holiday or as a sort OF Chinese New
Year, for the settlement OF all debts,
just as you pleased; he makes no
recommendations. The extra day OF
leap year would also stand alone as
Leap-day, after the Year-end day, when
ever Il occurs. The new year would
begin again as of the same day OF the
week upon which It, the old, began
and continue thus throughout the
ages, obviating the issuing OF new cal
endars by insurance companies and
patent medicine concerns annually.
Features of this reform calendar are
that each month and each half-month
begins on the same day each week.
Movable feast days would be cal
culated as now and assigned their
dates In each new year az now. Fixed
feasts would be assigned new per-
manent dates which would coincide
with their present number of days

Iowa Statesman Also Makes Attack
on Andrew Carnegie In His
Address on Justice"
COTTONWOOD FALLS, Kas., July
Ex-senator Albert b. Cummins. or
Iowa, spoke at the Chase county Chau-
tauqua here yesterday.
The senator stated that he chose to
deliver a sermon on the text OF Jus
tice," rather than talk on political in
terests, because IL was Sunday Then
he proceeded to attack the steel trust
and the oil trust, and particularly
John ID. Rockefeller and Andrew
Carnegie.
Both OF these gigantic fnanciers
are opponents OF grave injustice to
this country" he declared. The mil
lions OF dollars which they give the
public for the building of libraries and
educational institutions are nothing
more than returning a part of their
great profits to the American people
by way of atonement. However. that
sort Of atonement will never expiate
the wrongs that they have done In the
fields Of industry"
The senator avoided politics until
near the close of his address, when he
paid tribute to Senator Joseph l..
Bristow.
"A Drawer and truer man to his poll
cies than Bristow has never been seen
on the senate floor" were his words.
