WHEELING, w. VA, Nov.
3.-As a result of alleged physi-
cal deterioration of the human
race through preventable and
durable diseases, a movement
has been definitely started which
it is believed may eliminate in
the annual compulsory physical
examination of every man, wo-
man and child in America. The
movement, gotten under way de-
finitely only a short time ago, is
said to be gaining momentum
throughout the country. The
plans not only call for compul-
sorry physical examination, but
for greater education on matters
pertaining to health.

staunch adherence to its doctrines were
demanded by Hampton l.. Carson, ol
Philadelphia, president of the American
Bar Association at the annual convention
Of the organization here today.
The authors Of the constitution, he
said, did not enact political or social
economy or mistake nervous twitchings
for reform.
They did not believe it was the function
Of the constitution to control personal
habits or behavior, and did not place il
within the power of'a small fraction of the
people to keep the remainder in constant
agitation" he said.
st. Louis. Aug 25.-Comprehensive
legislative reforms were before the Ameri-
can Bar Association for consideration as
the organization convened in annual
session here today.
The proposed changes. covering wide
range. were presented in reports sub
mitted by various committees. They
tended in part toward uniformity for
State statutes and modernization OF GER
tain Federal court procedure.
Discussion of methods for maintaining
the standard of the bar on high level also
promised to hold an important place in the
convention.
A repert prepared by the committee on
professional ethics and grievances, stated
n canvass of members of the judiciary
throughout the United States indicated
that prevailing sentiment favored the
incorporation of the bars of various COM
munities, with the Canon of Ethics as n
part of the constitution of the corpora
tions. which would have full power to
supervise the conduct of all practising
attorneys.
In advocating legislation that would
empower the Supreme Court 20 prescribe
rules for common law procedure IN
Federal courts, report from the com
mittee on uniform judicial procedure
stated this would have the effect of doing
away with long-drawn out litigation, and
would tend TO improve State court pro
cedure, through the adoption Of the
federal system as model. This latter
would also mark an important step
toward unifying State statutes, the report
explained.
A further measure Of suggested reform
urges amplihcation of the Qaw governing

question Of district court jurisdiction.
1t is urged also by the committee on

Further than this Governor Cox did
not care to discuss his relations with

however, that he did not enjoy the tenor
of some published statements that 1T
