CHIROPRACTORS
 ARE HELD GUILTY
Recorders Decision Is Not Aimed at Profession, But
 In Accordance With Law

On charge of practicing medicine without certifcation of qualification from the state board of examiners, four chiroprartors were fined $1OO each in recorders court yesterday afternoon.
 The chiropractors fined are: Stephens Brewster, Ada Brewster, w K. Dean and James A. Edward. Notice of ap- peal to the circuit court was filed.
 Recorder Henry J. Martin read a lengthy decision that showed careful study of the question of whether a chiropractor should be considered as a physician. No question as to the merits of chiropractice entered into the trial.
 In rendering his decision, Recorder Martin stated that not thrust was meant at the profession in itself. In fact, he stated that evidence showed that many persons had been benefited by fhe treat ment. He was persuaded, however, that the work of a chiropractor and physi- elan tended toward the same end-that IS to cure. He rendered verdict that as the chiropractors has been treating human beings without first securing a certificate of qualification from the state board of examiners they were guilty un- der the law.
 Cases of J. c. Glover and J. D. Han were postponed until Tuesday morning so as to permit the city to induce more testimony. The case of NJ. A. Fryant is set for Thursday.
 The chiropractors were represented bv Attorneys Sterling A Wood. William vaughn, z. T. Rudulph and a special attorney from the Palmer institute. Jere C. King and G. Lewis Bailes. assistant ton. P 'SeN"
