GERMANY READY TO
 FIGHT INDEFINITELY
tContinued from Page One)

try on both fronts; we are still there after i've months of war. Our present lines are strong; the advantage all on our side thus far.
 If our first advance against Paris had succeeded fully it would have been rec oned most brilliant achievement As it stands it is admirable one. But one cannot expect to carry on war with out some checks and when we fell back We swung over to the present line of action in which We have been thoroughly successful.
 Tt is wrong to interpret operations in Flanders as an attempt on our part to reach Calais and outfank the allied armies On the contrary that pnase or the campaign is the result of an attempt on the part of the French and British To force their way north to separate us from the sea and enveop our right flank and rear relieve Antwerp and oblige us to retire from Belgium.

EAST COAST FEARS
TAMPA WILL Be
THE TERMINUS Of
THE Dixie HIGHWAY

Miami, May 1.-THE Dixie High
way from Chicago to Miami by way
OF Tampa and the Everglades would
be a Dixie Highway from Chicago
to Tampa, in the opinion of S. A.
Belcher, Miami's commissioner on
this highway, and for this reason
he is opposed to the suggestion made
that the West Coast route be adopt
ed.
There is no show of getting a
road down the Miami canal bank for
years" said Mr.. Belcher, land the
show is no better working west from
the lake. In fact, if the highway
was built to Tampa it would be to
the interests of the Tampa people to
put off the building of the road
across the Everglades as long as
possible that the stream of tourists
be not turned down the east coast
to Miami Such move would be
fatal to Miami's interests, be-
lieve."
Mr.. Belcher will leave early next
week to attend the second meeting
the Dixie Highway Commissioners
to be held at Chattanooga on May
90 At this meeting the route will
be definitely decided. No delega-
tions from different sections will be
heard, only their silent spokesman
in the shape of maps, books, pic
lures, etc, will be received as the
commissioners deliberate upon the
matter in executive session.

an improvement on the old primary

Pending Legislation
Affecting Physicians

cism by local chiropractic on pend
ing legislation, as published in
recent issue of The Telegram, fails
to bring out the point that this pro-
nosed legislation draws restrictions
Just as tightly around the regular
practitioner, Homeopath, Eclectic
and Osteopath. as around all others
that claim to be able to tell people
what is the matter with them and
to be able to cure them. Whoever is
honest and shows ability to make
diagnosis will be allowed to practice
any form of treatment he may
choose, whether he writes NJ. D., or
some other D., etc, after his name.
Now these are facts. have read
| the bill and know what | am talking
about. No discrimination will be
made for or against any form of
practice.
1t is just as useless to question
motives of the regular practitioner
for advocating this legislation as it
is to question the motives of the
regular practitioner for advocating
this legislation as it is to question
the motives of the chiropractic for
| opposing it The people of Florida
want to know in what way it will
| benefit them 1T will be benefit
in tending to protect them from lg-
/. norance on the one hand and from
| dishonesty on the other. While no
one can deny an American citizen
the right to choose his form of
treatment, at the same time he has
a right to expect the state to give
him some assurance that the man
who gives him his favorite treat
ment is able to diagnose his case be-
fore beginning treatment. That is
the whole question in a nut shell.
That being the aim and expected eff
feet of this proposed legislation,
why should exceptions be made to so
favor the members of some one form
of practice as to allow them to dag
nose and treat diseases without be-
ing tested as to their ability and in
tegrity. The chiropractic answers
by saying that his treatment is diff
ferent, that it can not be compre-
hended by an examining board COM
posed of members of other schools of
practice. In this answer he fails
to mention the fact that he will only
be examined to find out his knowl-
edge of disease and his ability to
diagnose it. He will not be exam
ined as to his method of treatment.
The board will only want to know
whether he is an honest man,
whether he has had the necessary
general education and special train
ing that will enable him to know
diseased conditions and to make an
accurate diagnosis after using we'll
known methods of examination. He
will be allowed to choose his form
of treatment and write after his
name any letters that suits his
fancy.
AS pointed out above, the question
of the best form of treatment is not
involved. But allow me to say that
the final test of any form of treat
ment is matter of statistics, and
that statistics in medicine are
worthless unless measured in lots of
five hundreds or the thousands. Even
then they are worthless unless
backed up by accurate diagnosis
based upon laboratory examination
where indicated. NJ. D.
