ABACIERIOLOGIS7
FOR STATE IS
NEEDED
BOARD OF HEALTH so STATES IN
ITS sEMI-ANNuAL REPORT
TO THE GOVERNOR

Santa Fe, Dec. 22-One hundred and
one candidates to practice medicine
applied during 1913 and 1914 to the
state board of health for licenses, ac-
cording to the biennial report of the
board filed with Governor Mcdonald
today. One hundred Of these appIlca-
tions were granted, II of them upon
credentials of accredited colleges, nine
upon reciprocal arrangements with
other states, ia upon examination,
while one applicant was refused IL
cense.
The board reports small epidemics
of scarlet fever, measles, diphtheria,
whooping cough, smallpox and ty-
phoid. Typhus broke out in one of
the Indian villages but was promptly
suppressed.
Among the radical recommendations
are: "A new law regulating the prac-
tice of medicine is desirable, one rails
ing the requirements to meet more
nearly those of other States"
"That more power be given to the
board of health and means with which
to exercise such powers"
The board complains that the re-
turns of deaths and births required to
be made under the statute are very
incomplete and unreliable. In sew
eral counties they have been very II.
regular.
The board wants the legislature to
create a state bacteriologist and a
state chemical laboratory in connec'
tion with a pure food department
The suggestion is made that this
might be arranged in connection with
the university or some, other state ed
ucational institution There is par
ticular value in the examination ol
specimens from suspected cases oi
diphtheria. The regulation of the
practice of midwifery Is also urged
In New Mexico midwifery is practiceC
by a very large number of women, es
pecially in the remote spanish-Ameri
can communities in which no physi
clans are located.
The receipts of the board for the
past two years were $2,3s5.25, the ex
peditures $2.s76.75. while the balanc'
on hand is $27.71.

best they can without supplies, but
immediate assistance is necessary II
the lives of patients are to be saved
in many of the hospitals. 1t is impos-

occasionally. She has no time to

rum. What chance have they to re
cover under such conditions?"

EARLY RULING IN OPIUM LAW

San Francisco, Calf, Dec. 22.-The
fate of so men convicted in San Fran
cisco, of violating the federal opium
act, will soon be decided by the SUI
preme court of the United States,
which will decide shortly the consti-
tutionality of the act which prohibits
the Importation Of opium. The go
Californians were convicted of either
smuggling of having opium in their
possession. The case was put up to
the highest court on the appeal of Ia
United States customs guards convict
ed some time ago as members of an
alleged opium smuggling ring in
which steamship officials were alleg-
ed to have been implicated. Attorneys
for the convicted customs guards con
tend that the federal statue, as 1t now
stands, is an invasion of the police
rights of the states and is otherwise
constitutional. They attack the valid
| ity Of the provisions of the law which
fix the mere possession Of contraband
opium as evidence of Illegal conni
vance in smuggling operations.

DECLARES Japan
BANKRUPT nation
All Talk of its Going to War
Pronounced Absurd by
DR.. Green.

Fergus Falls, Mimi, Jan. 6.-That
war between the United States and
Japan is absolutely impossible, is the
verdict Of DIR. Thomas f. Green. who
has recently returned from an extend
ed stay in Toxic and who lectured in
this city under the auspices of the
Elks' lodge. DIR. Green is one Of two
International lecturers working under
the direction Of the International
Peace society. David Starr Jordan.
late president Of the Leland Stanford
university, being the other.
Japan is bankrupt, absolutely and
utterly bankrupt" declared DR..
Green. Her national debt amounts
to $4,000, 100000 and if the whole
empire we're put up at auction, there
is not a Spectator in the world who
would pay that price for it. She can
not fight the United States. She IAN
not fight anybody. Her. people must
toll, and save and economic for at
least fifty years to come before the
nation can again be declared solvent.
That is what her victorious war with
Russia has done for her. not to speak
best and bravest citizens who lie
buried in the trenches Of Manchuria."
DR.. Green said the United States Is
making altogether too rapid strides
along the road toward militarism,
showing that before the Spanish war
expenditures of this country for the
army and navy amounted to
more than $50,000,000 a year. where
as since that war they have never
been less than 5000. 600. 900. He
argued that there is not a civilized ma
ton in the world that would either
attack the United States or permit
the United States to be attacked, be-
cause the great nations. such as Eng
land and Germany, secure more than
so per cent of their food supply from
this country, and to fight the United
States would mean starvation for
their people. He held that the Min
nesota farmer blowing his broad acres
was doing far more to defend that ma
ton than any belted officer who ever
walked a quarter deck. and urged
that this country set the world a prac-
teal example by disarming and an
nouncing that hereafter 1t was willing
to submit all of its disputes to courts
of arbitration.
