AMERICAN DENTISTS HIT
Letter Writers Object to Their Doing
Business in Germany.

AMSTERDAM, August 1.-The fact
that there are still a numebr of Ameri-
can dentists practising in Germany is
the subject of angry comment in let
ters to the Cologne Gazette. The writ
ers complain that the business of the
German dentists now in the field with
the army is rapidly falling into the
hands of these Americans. The cor
respondents think it is 'seandalous =
that American dentists should be per-
mitted to attend the injured jaws of
German soldiers and that no reprisals
have been instituted against them for
measure taken against German business
interests in the United States.
The main grievance seems to be that
people still insist upon consulting the
American dentists, whose waiting rooms,
says another correspondent are ''filled
with society people, who think it is
fashionable to be charged steep prices
on bills made out in English"
