the opticians of the state opposed the

claimed il passed by the legislature IN
its present form will repeal the existing
law regarding the practice Of optometry
and limit the practice of the profession
to physicians and surgeons. Since the
passage of the optometrY law in 1908,
the sale and hitting of glasses to people
with defective sight has been taken out
of the hands of the itinerant spectacle
peddler and become the profession of

claim that the new medical practice bill
will in turn drive them out OF business
