INDIANAPOLIS, Jan 26.-The
virtues of chiropractic healing were
set forth in argument in support Of
measure proposing to establish a
state board of examination and reg
istration, before the house commit
tee on rights and privileges Thurs

board of r edical examination and
registration was based upon the
contention that the proposed meas
ure was an attack upon the educa-
tional star dards of the state as
concerns the art of healing.

which would fix the qualifications
of chirOpractics and establish what
he declares is elf-sustaining

legislative committee of the Indi-
ana Medical society; DR.. b. ID. My
ers. professor of medicine at Indi-
ana university, and DIR. W. T. Colt,
secretary Of the state board. The
opposition was declared to he not

NEW DEPOT FOR HARRISON

The petition of Harrison's citizens
for a new railroad depot will come
up for a hearing before the State
Railroad Commission at Little Rock
next Wednesday.
This petition was presented some
six month ago and action was post
poned at the request of the railroad
which promised to take up the matter
as soon as it could be handled without
financial embarrassment.
Harrison has not been disposed to
embarass the railroad company in any
way, but there is a general sentiment
that the town is entitled to better
depot accommodations, and that the
company should be able to give us the
conveniences already enjoyed by a
number Of other points on the line.

Let the Government Economic

1t is evident that the revenue bill
which the Senate favors will not pro-
duce as much money as the bill which
the House prepared. Senator Weeks
says there is no need for so much
money, anyway, because the admins
tration estimates are VIGOROUSLY exag-
eerated. In any event, it will do the
administration no harm to practice a
little of the economy which Mr.. Hoover
and others are preaching to the people.
That this will come hard to the ad-
ministration will be readily admitted;
for there never was seen such reck-
less prodigality in the expenditure of
public funds in time of peace as this
country witnessed from 1913 to 1917.
