GREECE TURNS DOWN
OFFER OF ALLIES
DOES NOT SEE ITS WAY CLEAR
TO ACCEPT PROPOSALS TO
ENTER PRESENT WAR.

London.-The Greek government
has Informed the quadruple entente
powers that it does not see its way
clear at present to accept the propos
ais, including the cession Of Cyprus
and other concessions, offered in re
turn for Greek military cooperation
with Seryia
While Greece's refusal is definite sc
far as the present is concerned, Lon
don commentators feel that material
strengthening of the entente allieI
contingent at Saloniki would have 4
material influence on the attitude
even of the Greek government Oh
servers here believe, too, that Greece
cannot persist in her present ambigu
Gus position and that Greek puDllC
opinion probably will exercise its in
tluence.
Greece's reply 10 the offer, which
reached the foreign Office is lengthy
and while it nas not been made pub
lie, there is reason to believe the Hei
lenic kingdom bases its decision OF
the ground that the Anglo-Frencr
force landed at Saloniki is not, in the
Greek governments opinion, strong
enough for the task allotted it.
The refusal of the allies offer was
not unexpected, as it has been stateC
often in official circles that both ROu
mania and Greece were Withholding
their assistance until the allies either
won a decisive victory or proved tC
the Greeks and Roumanians their abil
ity to do so, or until the operations
had reached stage which would as
sure them their countries would moi
be overrun by forces of the centra
powers or their Turkish and Balkan
allies.
There is no inclination here or il
the capitals Of the other members o.
the quadruple entente powers to mini
mize the seriousness Of the situation
in Seryia. The Ausro-German anc
Bulgarian CampaiC1 is developing
slowly, but the plans are now fairly
clear. The Austro-German center Is
advancing down the Morava valley
from Semendia, while the Bulgarians
have got across this valley to the
south and commando the Belgrade
Nish-SaloniKi railway. The Austro
Germans have three other forces en-.
gagged, one in the northwest near Sha
bat2, one at Belgrade and the third
which has not yet crossed the Danube
about Orsova.

That the general and primary cleo
tion bill being drafted by the commit
tee appointed at the convention of the
State Federation of Labor, held in Lit
tie Rock in September, will be ap-
proved and endorsed by leading at
torneys and public officials of the
state, is the belief o. 4. A. Wilson OF
Pine Bluff, president of the State
Federation of Labor, who was in Lit
tie Rock. 1t is planned to initiate the
bill and submit it at the general cleo
tion in November, 1916.
The committee is progressing well
with the work" Mr.. Wilson said.
Every phase o. the measure is being
carefully considered and when com
pleted the bill will be as nearly per-
feet as is possible to make such a
law.
There seems to be a general mis-
understanding as to the proposed bill,
in that it is generally considered to
be a primary law. The bill will gov.
ern all elections, and will, in fact, be a
general election measure. OF course
the primary elections will be taken
care of in its provisions. The meas
ure is not intended in any way to be
antagonistiC to any other like measure
which may be in preparation. Rather,
the committee wished to work in har-
mony with those who seek to better
the states election laws. 1t is con-
ceded by all that a change is needed
and when this measure is completed
it will embody the best ideas and be
approved by attorneys and men best
able to pass upon such matters. We
expect the support of all in the cam
paign to initiate the bill"
Members Of the committee appoint
ed to draft the bill are G. B. McCarty,
J. H. Casey and Joe Flynn, all of Lit

Feesplitting, a custom denounced
by medical societies in all parts OF the
United States as an evil from which
both physicians and patients suffer,
is practiced to considerable extent in
Arkansas, according TO Little Rock
physician. Laws against the custom
exist in Wisconsin, Ohio and Iowa and
it is said that a movement to procure
such law in Arkansas probably will
be made.
The practice of fee-splitting is being
fought by the American College Of
Surgeons and the American Medical
Association and is said in literature
furnished by the former society to
mean the buying and selling OF pa
tients and to lead to second rate med
ical service.
An explanation of the custom, as
furnished by the American College Of
Surgeons, follows:
"A patient consults a physician. He
is examine and told that he needs
an operation. When the patient asks
who should perform the operation, he
is directed to a surgeon with whom
the physician has an agreement and in
many instances the physician accom-
panies the patient to the surgeon.
The surgeon charges larger fee for
the operation than he is accustomed
to charge and pays a commission TO
the physician who has brought him
the patient"
The agreements, it is said, usually
exist between physicians in rural
communities or small towns and sur
geons in larger towns or cities,
where there are hospital facilities.
