pected to result from the meeting at

BAR BOARD MEMBERS
CANNOT BE ELECTED TO SERVE
AS HIGHWAY COMMISSIONER.
Attorney General Rules Register OF
Deeds Must Not Appropriate Alb
stracts for His Own Use.

Madson.-The attorney general ad-
vised District Attorney Charles Noigt
of Sheboygan that the action of the
Sheboygan county board in electing
one of its members as county high
way commissioner was illegal.
The attorney general advised Dis
trict Attorney T. p. Abel of Sparta
that 1t is not unlawful for poultry
breeders to ship exhibition fowls in
the usual exhibition coops.
The attorney general advised Dis
trict Attorney Mark Catlin OF Apple,
ton that chapter 270 of the laws of
1878, which authorizes counties to
maintain systems of abstracts OF land
titles, was constitutional. He further
advised that if a former register OF
deeds had appropriated to his own use
the system of abstracts owned by that
county and had retained money re-
ceived for the use of the same, action
should be brought to recover the
money and to restore the abstracts
to the possession of the county. He
advised the district attorney that the
present register of deeds would be
entitled to compensation for his work
in bringing the system down to date.

LAW
IS BEING TESTED
MEDICAL MEN ALL OVER WORLD
WATCH EXPERIMENTS AT
CHIPPEWA FALLS.
WISCONSIN PIONEER IN MOVE
State Places Stamp Of Approval on
Operations on Inmates of Homo
for Feeble M inded-Other
States May Follow.

Chippewa Falls.-Med men all
over the world are watching expert
ments at the Home for the Feeble
Minded in Chippewa Falls, where,
stamped with the approval of the
state, science is making it's first or
ganized attempt to prevent the propa-
cation of incompetent children.
Wisconsp's sterilization law, passed
in 1913, Is the first of its kind to be
placed on the statute books, and other
ments conducted here. Operations
have already been performed on two
groups and it has been announced
there will be more operations before
Christmas. Physicians say the first
operations are a success, and it is
predicted that the plan in which Wis
consin is the pioneer, soon will be ac-
cepted in other states.
Preparations for the operations were
carried on so quietly few persons,
even among the attendants at the in
stltution, were aware of any unusual
activity. The scientific world how
ever, has had its eyes on Chippewa
Falls ever since it was announced the
new law would be given its first test.
When it was learned that the state
board of control had appointed board
of examiners, consisting of DR.. A.
Sherman of Oshkosh, DR.. ]. r. Lyman
of Eau Claire and Dr. Wilmarth Of
Chippewa Falls, there were some pro-
tests from relatives of inmates who
lacked information about the proposed
operations. These protests were
quickly stilled when it was learned
that there was no danger connected
with the operations and that in no
case was an inmate operated on I'M
less he had first been examined and
passed by the board and the permis-
sion of relatives first obtained.
