 The Norwich Medical Association is sued notice Monday of a raise in fees effective May l. and the. first change made in the price for calls in fifty. years except for a 50 cent raise few years ago. The association says it hopes the end of fee raising is in sight The statement follows:
 The Medical association felt reluctant about raising their fees. Their fees were s150 a call 50 years ago and remained that until a few years ago when they raised to s2, a raise of 50 cents in 50 years.
 In those days the average worker got less than s1.5O day; today he gets from $4 to s7 day. If members of the med ical profession advanced their fees the same as other workers, they should be getting s5 to s7 call.
 A doctor cannot do bushes today with out an automobile, which scared in price Rents have been raised. Taxes have been raised Mechanics and build ing trades have kept up a continuous ad vance in prices. Notwithstanding these advances, the medical profession has re trained from raising fees all these years except as noted above.
 With the present advance the fees art much less than other cities of the state I The present advance in fees will remain 1 in force unless further advances 1T prices in other lines bring about an in creased cost of practicing medicine, il which case it will be necessary to stil further raise the medical fees. It is hop ed the end of fee raising is in sight. | The new schedule raises the charge for office fees from $1 to s2, house wis 1 it's from $2 to S3 or .s5, according tt
 the time of day or night they are made There is also travel charge beyond prescribed limits, varying for day anC night calls.
