DECISION OF DISTRICT
COURT UPHELD IN CASE
OF VIM. |. JOHNSON

The case of state VS.. w. L.
Johnson, chiropractor, was affirm
cd yesterday in supreme court,
This case was appealed from
Pernalillo county by the state after
District Judge Reynolds had sus-
tanned the demurrer of defendant,
Johnson, to the states complaint,
which set up that defendant was
practicing medicine and osteOpathy
in the state without first having
obtained license. and which
sought to secure from the lower
court an order enjoining Johnson
from practicing what the state call
ed medicine and osteOpathy and
what the defendant claimed was
merely "chiropraCtiC adjustment"
The lower court refused the In
junction and the supreme court
has upheld this decision.
This was the second stage of the
fight to test the question of
whether chiropractors had right
under the laws of this state to
practice their profession, where no
provision is made for them.
Originally Mr., johnson was ar
rested on the criminal charge of
placticing medicine without a IL
ceEse but on trial in the district
court before a jury he was found
not guilty.
johnson moved from Albuquer-
que to Ration. n. NJ, some months
lego and at the present time is
located somewhere in Texas.
