Chiropractic Association

In selecting a chiropractor you
can ascertain his standing in the
profession and thus know some
thing of his ability by asking him
if he belongs to the "Chiropractic
Association of the District of Co
lumbia." If he does. you can rest
assured that he is a graduate Of
a REAL school and competent to
care for your needs. The associ-
alton found that out before admit
ting him to membership.
The chirpractor who applies for
membership in the "Chiropractic
Association of the District of Co.
lumbia' must present a diploma
from a recognized school (recog-
inized by the twenty-seven State
boards and the American Associa-
ton of Chiropractic Schools and
lColleges). he must pass an exam
nation equivalent to a State board
examination and demonstrate his
ability as a chiropractor by giving
adjustments.
This accounts for the fact that
twenty of the Washington chiro-
practors are all that have been
found qualified for membership.
There is only one national asso-
sociation. The Universal Chiroprac-
tors Association.
Consult classified section of tel
ephone directory under heading,

trict of Columbia" for chiroprac-
tors properly qualified.

5ERGER DEFIANT
when UNSEATED
Voigt of Wisconsin Casts
Lone Vote in Favor
Of Socialist.

Victor L. Berger. Socialist Congress
man-elect from Wisconsin, was ex-
cluded from membership in the House
of Representatives last night by a
vote of 900 to l.
Berger was specifically charged
with having violated the espionage act
by conspirinG to interfere with the
operation of the Selective Service act
and other preparation for the war.
He now is under sentence OF twenty
years In prison, imposed by the
Federal court at Chicago.
The one negative vote was cast by
Representative Edward Voigt, Re-
publican, of Wisconsin.
II there was any doubt in the minds
of the other members, 1t was swept
away by BerGer's own speech
For more than an hour Berger be-
Titled the government. ridiculed the
President. severely 'arraigned Con-
gress and the Republican and Demo
cratic parties and assailed the Fed
eral court in which he was convicted.
II take back nothing that 1 said in
my speeches and articles" Berger
shouted dcfiantly. Under the same
circumstances l would say and write
IL all over again. only | would make II
a great deal stronger"
The espionage act was characterized
by Berger as an infamous measure
passed at the order of American au-
tocracy and declared that II had been
used not to punish spies but to hound
citizens whose opinions differed from
those of the administration.
Arraigning the administration. Ber-
ger said II made a specially of hypo-
critical phrases and autocratic. tyran-
nicaI acts. Except for England. he
asserts. America is the only civilized
country which has political prisoners.
Victor L. Berger is a living ex-
ample of the old saying. a leopard

\ ian his skim" said Representative
eionahan. Republican. of Wisconsin,.
1t would be no more unpatriotic and
Un-American to put the ex-Kaiser in

An Open Letter
To Lawyer A. E. Stakemann
1st Member Christians ed Country
District.

Two years ago when 1t was announced
that you were retiring from public life,
people directly interested were amazed:
others indirectly interested pretended to
be amazed; while the disinterested e
(among them the Writer) accepted the
news" complaisantly. Now, while
there was nothing amazing in your re-
firing, your coming back" must cause
either amaZement or admiration. Which
shall it be ?
| would like to be clearly understood.
The name '~Stakemann" is considered
one tC c%onjure up crushing Influences.
Let me show to what extent this belief
prevails by citing just expression
which vas actuated by it. On two ooca-
slons | have written apprOvingly on Ger
tain political attitudes of your; but there
was a time when it was reported that you
were going to introduce, or favor a
measure which the consensus of public
opinion was decidedly against. At that
time | remarg ed to a certain gentleman
one of your ablest supporters-that |
had given much thought to this rumour,
and should 1t turn Out to be true | was
going to think out loud". DO n such
thing. advised the gentleman, touch
Stakemann dlssentingly, and you catch d
tartar" That this gentleman voiced a
belief about you that is current, sir, can
not be successfully cOntrOver ed; but that
it is true | am unable to affirm or deny.
You did not take the stand as rumour
had it and | was saved from a dose of
tartaric acid which, however, would not
have injured me in the least for ! am
armed so strong in honesty" as 10 be
acid proof. Is it necessary for me to say
that | am not blaming you for this i'm
preston, but that a FAR more ennobling
impression would be that the name
''Stakemann" is one to conjure up in
huences working for the betterment
Of the natives of st. Croix? Sir, this
impression can be given. You retired
two years ago and caused amazement
