This is the finish to the investiga-
tion made as q result of q resolution
offered by Representative Martin of
Colorado. who charged that the COM
mission and certain officers of the
Philippine government had violated
the law in selling and leasing public
and friar lands.
Not q single member OF the commit
tee sustained MIR. Martins contentious,
the exoneration as to fraud being
unanimous. Even Congressman Ruck-
Or. Mr.. Martins Colorado colleague on
the insular committee voted for the
report.
Several members favored a minor

make recommendations to Congress on
the amount of land to be hereafter
granted. but all were agreed there had
been no evidence submitted to sustain
Martins suggestion Of crookedness.
The friar lands investigation has
been an expensive one on account of
the great distance from which wit

cover 1000 pages. and the total cost

FABLE OF THE FOUR DOCTORS

(By Robert Seaver)
There were four doctors lived in town
Named White, Black, Green and Brown
Each had a lavish education,
Knew surgery and sanitation.
Synovitis and dietetics,
Therapeutics and orthopedics.
NeuraSthenia. bacteriolOgy,
Logorotomy and psychology,
Each one was posted on necrosis,
Strabismus and tuberculosis;
From warts to chronic indigestion,
But White, Black and Brown as well
Knew everything there was to tell
When patients telephoned at night
To Green or Black or Brown or White,
They always started off with speed,
To lend their aid to those in need.
Green clambered on passing trolley,
Black drove horse most melancholy.
Brown rode wheel with coaster brake,
And White his Maxwell car would take.
Poor Green would often wait an hour,
Because the trolley lost its power.
While Blacks old nag and Browns bike
So White. who travelled Maxwell way,
Got all the patients who would pay.
Far different will not be seen
The lots of White. Black, Brown and
Green:
For Green still rides as he began
And he is now motorman.
While Black too late bemoans his loss
His only patient is his horse
Brown took the only job in sight
Does laboratory work for White:
While Doctor White, With Maxwell aid
A hattering success has made
morals here for every man
Get the best training that you can.
Then spread your skill and practice fal
By riding in a Maxwell car.

This road, which is already using the

A train, a message and block wire

branch between Jesup, Georgia, and
Folkstone, Georgia, via Waycross. The

This is not the only road operating
in Georgia and Florida which is dis
patching trains by telephone. The
