COMMITTEE HEARS
DRUCLESS DOCTORS
Lively Debate Is Held Over
Bill Providing for Ex-
amining Board.

Members Of the public health COM
mlttee of the senate last night listened
to a JOINT debate between the drugless
practitioners, composed Of chiroprac
tors, neuropaths, hydro -therapists and
allied schools of healing on one side
paths on the other. The senate cham
Der was filled with the friends of both
sides.
The debate was on the Williams bill,
providing for state board of examin"
ers Of drugless practitioners. Members
of the state board of medical exam
iners opposed the bill on the ground
that there was no educational liniita-
tion in the bill and that the public
professed to be competent to cure dis
cages, but who were without qualifica-
tions They contended that the pres
ent laws were ample and if any one
was qualified he would be permitted to
practice upon. convincing the state
board Of medical examiners Of his
qualifications, All recognized schools
membership Of the board, they con-
tended.
DR.. Clarence Snow and DR.. Hampton
spoke for che medical board and Miss
Margaret Connell. prominent woman
attorney, spoke for the osteopaths in
opposition to the bill. Former Sen
ator Charles Z. Marks appeared for the
drugless practitioners, In behalf of the
bill, urging that the educational test
was unfair in that what really counted
was what persons were able to do. not
what they were taught to do. DR.. Snow
suggested that from the statements
made in behalf of tho bill one would
be led to believe that ignorance was
essential to the successful practice of
any science. As physician, he said,
he had no interest in the passage or
defeat of the bill. but was appearing
merely as a citizen.

field of Salt Lake is chairman. held
public meeting in the house chamber
last night to consider house bill No.

dren in the world are the children Of

FISH AND GAME
BILL IS PASSED

After a three-h hour struggle Yesterday.
the house passed the new fish and game
bill The measure passed almost un-
changed from the form in which II came
from the committee. At least twenty
attempts were made to amend the bill.
but the solid majority friendly to the
measure in the shape in which 1t was
left by the committee always blocked
those attempts. The only alterations
made in the bill In addition to those
previously published were an amendment
To strike out the appropriation Of 10000.
which is TO come In with the regular
appropriation bill, and an amendment
cutting the license for seinng In Ctah
lake from S25 to s. a season.
The house members for the most part
evidently had made up their minds that
the committee knew what It was doing
when it amended the bill and reported 1t,
Anderson OF Sanpcte. chairman OF the
house committee. and his associates on
the committee, have held numerous
meetings, executive and public, during
the last three weeks and the result OF
their earnest and palnstaking efforts was
the bill presented TO the house yesterday.

TRENT SAYS HE FIRED -FOUR TIMES
OVER THE HEAD OF HIS
AssATLAST.

After. he says, he had shot over
George Turner's head four times in an
effort to ward off being attacked with
a knife, Arthur Trent. colored. thirty
one years old, turned his revolver full
on Turner as the two were fighting in
College alley In the rear of the Re
treat for the Sick. and shot him in the
abdomen, the wound being so serious
that the negro may die. The shooting
occurred at O'Clock yesterday morn
The two negroes had quarreled it is
said, over Turner's wife, When the
night assumed serious proportions and
threatened to end fatally for one or
the other. Trent tried to get away.
But. so he says, Turner started for
him with an open knife, and he hred.
He pulled the trigger five times, empty
ing his revolver, the first four shots
Intentionally going wide of the mark.
Then Turner was too close upon him
and, firing at close range, Trent shot
him In the stomach. Turner fell. and
shooting negroes living In College al
ley appeared at their windows, and
when 1t was over they poured out into
the street,. Patients in the hospital
heard the firing. and some of them be

The First police station was notified
of the shooting, and officers were sent
at once to the scene. As soon as the

known. the ambulance was summoned
and DR. TAYLOR Hawkins took the ne

He said that he shot Turner only when
