Republican A. p. Leased Wirel

WICHITA FALLS, Texas, Nov. 19. -Clrcllng to earth from a height of 4OoO feet, six army aeroplanes, one after another, composing the first aero squad of the United States army, reached here today from Fort Sill, Oklahoma, making the first lap of their journey to Fort Sam Houston at San Antonio. The trip was made without mishap and the distance covered at an average of 90 miles an hour or 4S minutes for the trip.
 Captain Benjamin D. FouIois. in command of the squadron announced tonight he was satisfied with the first day. Conditions much as might prevail in war times have been ex- perienced by the aviators and trail CTS alike. The aeroplanes have coursed over territory unfamiliar to them and have landed safely in a field which none had seen before. They have met various kinds of air currents. particularly atmospheric, changes foulious, characterized as "choppy,' when the squad flew the Red river.
 Six automobile trucks. one for each machine carrying supplies and accessories, one machine shop truck and six mOtorcyclists, did not fare as well as the aviators. Deep sand in the Red river bottoms and some of the worst roads in Oklahoma and Texas were traversed by the land fleet. It was nearly eighty miles by roads between the two stops. The first truck to arrive here made the distance in seven hours, while early tonight there were still some of the motorcyclists blowing their way through the sands a few miles out eide this city.
 Mechanicians were tonight going over the planes. making adjustments to the one hundred and fourteen mile flight to Fort Worth. Texas. tomorrow

issued a statement in part as fol- lows:
 A question of tremendous import ance is at once raised as to whether the right of any child to live should rest wholly on the judgment of any physician. 1 do not want to be un- derstOod as questioning the right of any physician to act as his con- science or judgment in any par ticular case would dictate, and to operate or not to operate in accord ance herewith.
 At the same time the life of every child should be so safeguarded by the community that it would not have to depend upon the judgment of any one or two physicians.
 If we are going to depart from the recognized duty of the physician to save life regardless of what the life shall be afterward, then the state must provide some tribunal similar to that of ancient Sparta which questioned the right of every child to live until it had been passed upon by this tribunal
 The verdict read in part as fol- lows:
 We find no evidence from the physical de1ectS in the child that it would have become mentally or morally defective. Several of the physical defects might have been i'm proved by plastic operations.
 We believe that morally and ethicalIy a surgeon is fully within his rights in refusing to perform any operation which the conscience will not sanction. We find no req son to believe that the parents of John Bollinger were deprived of the privilege of consultation.
 We recommend strongly that in al! doubtful cases of this character, a consultation of two or more sur geons of known reputation for skill ethical standing and broad experi- ence should be held to decide upon the advisability or inadvisa bility of operative measures.
 We believe that the physicians highest duty is to relieve suffer ing and to save or prolong life"

 SALT LAKE. Nov. 19.-Joseph H. HiIlstrom's execution today for the murder of J. G. Morrison and Nor rison's son. January 10. 1914. was fol- lowed closely by Governor SprTs an nouncement that he would clear the state cf the lawless element that now infests it.
 Every lawbreaker. every man who defies law and order. every man who is opposed t- law ana order-caH them selves what they will-wil be driven out of tine state" he said. T am going to see that the work is started at once IT the city officers and others whose duty 1t is. Io not do so. I will do it myself | am going to see that in tlammatory street speaking is stopped, and at once. let them call 1t by free speech or any other name they wish"
 The governor said he did not believe it would be necessary to use the state militia but that the militia would be used if necessary to clear the state of the men who have been writing threat eEins letters and making incendiary speeches. II was said that a consider able amount of evidence in this con- ucction has been collected hy the state
 
 nor said very emphaJically tonight that he intended to adopt drastic measures to end the condition of alarm that has existed here as a result of the agita- tion of the Hillstrom case Local pub hc sentiment appeared to be strongly in favor of the governors attitude.
 The alibi sought to be established for HIllstrcm by William Busky of Seattle is not supported by the records here. He was not with Hillstrom iron. ? o'clock until 10 o'clock the afternoon and evening of the murders, as Hill stram called alone at the Morrison Ero~ery tha- afternoon and remained there a considerable period, according te the recor Is in the case. Busky did not testify for Hillstrom at the pre- liminary hearing, as he asserts. Hill strom did not offer any defense at the hearing and called no witnesses. In fact all the witnesses at both the pre- liminarN and the trial were local phy- Sici3ns who are still here. No foreman of the name Hines was ever employed at the Murray Shelter and the Smelt- ing company has no record of an ap- plication for work by Hillstrom and EuSzv- Busky's name does not appear on the jail records here and if he served term of II days, as he says, if was under another name. Hillstrom said before his execution today. that he did not know Eusky.

CHICAGO, Nov. 19-Six physi- clans, composing a coroner's jury, held today that Dr. H. J. Haiselden, who permitted an infant, Allan John Bollinger, to die when an operation might have saved him to a life of unhappiness as a defective, was morally and ethically justified in re- fusing to perform the operation which his conscience did not sane tion.
 An implied disapproval of a course wherein a physician might deter mine if it was or was not desirable for a patient to live was contained in the concluding paragraph of the verdict:
 We believe that the physicians highest duty is to relieve suffering and to save or prolong life"
 The jury was composed of the fol- lowing physicians; John F. Golden, Mercy hospital; Arthur Rankin, pro- lessor of anatomy, Loyola Uni versity; Howard Chislett, dean of Hahnemann College; D. A. K Steele, dean of the Physicians and Sur geons College of the University of Illinois: Henry F. Lewis. professor Of obstetrics, Cook County hospital: I-ubN iS I1tAlOtlir IIOIeSSOI ol pdlH- ologY.

 Dr. Haiselden in his testimony said he did not reach his final de- cision not to operate until he had consulted fifteen practicing physi- clans, fourteen of whom approved his course of letting the little life eX- pire, he said. The mother of the child, wife of a well to do workman. mother of three other children, all physically and mentally normal. also agreed that the baby would be bet ter off dead. he declared.

 "On what did you base your opinion?" asked Dr. Chislett
 "On the actions of the child.'
 Was the brain normal?'
 No, it was not"
 Was the child blind?"
 Well. I could not exactly say. Its eyes would not respond to light"
 Was the child deaf?'
 One of the ears was gone and I could not determine whether there was an auditory nerve"
