Las autoridades de Chicago lie han
retirado la licencia para el ejercicio
de su profession a un msaico, ell doc
tor Franklyn Whitman, por haberse
comprobado que era especialista en-
enfriamientos.
La causa de la medida contra el
doctor Whitman parecera un exotis-
mo americana a muchos de mis- lec-
torres, pero los que estan enterados
de que, en- Ell fondo, Sc trata de una
especialidad que tiene por objeto re-
cetar "whiskey" los clientes Sc COM
prendera con cierta facilidad su exis-
tencia.
Ell doctor Whitman habiase heeho
tan notable en- su especialidad, que
todos los dias, desde las primeras ho-
ras de la mafiana, Sc vefa rodeada
su oficina por una muchedumbre an
siosa de lograr la cura alcoholica.
En- algunos casos, la aglomeracion
fue tan grande, que la policia tuvo
que poner orden, entire los enfermos.
En- Nueva York, otro medico que,
81 bien no Sc hizo especialista nj OBJ
tuvo tanta fama como ell doctor Whit
man en- Chicago, receta mucho alco-
hol, ell doctor Melville A. Hays, ka
planteado una question de derecho an
te ell tribunal federal, por estimar
que ell delegado federal encargado de
cumplimentar la ley prohibicionista
ha limitado ilegalmente sus faculta-
des profesionales, al negarse extern
derle un nuevo talonario de las rece-
tas especiales que necesitan los me-
dicos para prescribir sus clientes
cuyo tratamiento requiera el uso del
alcohol.
El doctor Hay agoto su primer ta-
lonario alcoh6lico, de Glen recetas, en-
menos de cuarenta dfas, Y al solicitar
del departamento federal mencionado,
que Sc lie proveyera de otro, lie fue
negado. Los medicos de Nueva York,
pero especialmente los especialistas
en- enfriamientos, estan siguiendo con
ansioso interes ell desenvolvimiento
del pleito iniciado por el doctor Hay.
Para los medicos como para las
boticas, en- las grandes ciudades anne
ricanas, la prohibition result6 algo
parecido, en- sus efectos, a 10 que fue
la guerra europea para los hacenda-
dos cubanos, 81 bien los primeros no

cultad de recetar whiskey, porque
Ialgunos de sus companeros han redu-
cido ell precio de sus servicios hasta

; baratura de $ trabajO, ganan mas
de 10 que nee sitan para yivir. Uno
de ellos ha Cd ltado que tiene clientes
que acuden 4 el tres y hasta cuatro
yeces cada dia.
La medida adoptada por los encar-
gados de hacer cumplir la enmienda
constitutional, y la ley que regula su
icumplimiento, de limitar el uso de las
recetas alcoholics para cada medi-
co, un numero determinado en- ell
mes, causara serios trastornos, 81 no
triunfa en- su pleito ell doctor Hays,
entire los enfermos que las necesitan
" los medicos que las emplean.
Esos medicos especialistas en- en-
friamientos; esa lucha por la possession
de recetarios alcoholicosA constituyen
nuevas pruebas de due nunca lograran
su proposito los que pretenden tira-
nizar el gaznate de sus pr6jimos en-
las ciudades populosas. En- algunos
casos, los esfuerZos de estos malhe-
chores del bien han causado resulta-
dos contraproducentes,. como 10 de-
muestra la carta de una Osehora, pu-
blicada en- un periodico, en- la que su
autora Sc queja amargamente de los
prohibicionistas Y les acusa de haber
causado su infelicidad, pues su< es-
poso, que nunca habfa ingerido al

quirido ahora, en- pleno perfodo seco,
el vicio de la embriaguez v muchas

completamente Unconstitutional,
Y ia que no saben, los lectores, ell
comentario que primeramAhte pas6
por mi mente, cuanto me entere de la
Ecosecha de oro que estan recogiendo
los medicos y boticarios americanos
con motive de la prohibition? Pues,
sencillamente, el mismo que Sc les
habra ocurrido a muchos de ellos: ell
de que Sc trata de las classes mas
| afortunadas, de la humanidad. Esca-
samente pasa una semana sin que
ocurra algo que les benefcie. Unas
veces la "zafra" de la influenza, otras
la del alcohol. Como envidiaran los
medicos y los boticarios de otros pai-
ses los de los Estados Unidos al
saber que, no solamente disfrutaron
como ellos, de la zafra de la influen-
"a, traduciendo en- orc el panico de
unos y la infelicidad de otros, sino
que, ahora, Sc aprovechan de la ne
cesidad ms terrible de la humanidad,
que es la sed. -!

LET'S GET OUR POSTAL
CLERKS A LIVING WAGE

The inadequate salaries which
| the postal service people are receiv-
| ing Is just now occupying the pub
| lie attention. These faithful pub
lie servants need more money badly
and should have it. And there is one
certain way for the people ID give it
to them-letting congress know that
they want it given to them. The
way to let congress know is to write
to your representative and senator
and tell them so. The Atlanta Geor-
gian has the following 10 say on the
subject, every word of which the
Times-Recorder endorses and urges be
followed:
"The pay of the postal clerks of
this nation is shameful
"These people, faithful and long
suffering, are being paid wages to-
day that are far, far below their
absolute necessities, to say nothing
Of their just and honest deserts.
If ever we are to ge. action we
who wish to help the postal clerks
and are willing to 90 to little trou-
bic in the premises-it is now.
I'VE must bring all possible pres
sure to bear upon congress to pass
bill, providing for substantially in
creased pay. If we bring this pres
sure, the bill will pass--tor congress
will pass bill it is satisfied the pee
pie demand, while it Will not pass
one it believes the people indiffer-
ent to.
Write to the members Of the post
al commission, the five senators and
tive Representatives whose names we
give below Tell them in straight
English what you think of the pres
ent parsimony, incompetence, delay
and neglect
Write to Speaker Frederick H.
Gillett, to the Republican floor lead
er in the house, Representative Frank
W. MondeIl to Senators Henry Ca
bot Lodge, Reed, Smoot and Francis
+. Warren, n-rortant cogs in the
ruling machine.
Write to your own representa-
tive and senator.
Fourteen months ago the Con-
gress named a joint postal commits
sion to inquire into postal salaries.
That commission consists of Senator
Thomas Sterling of South Dakota
Senator L. c. Phipps Of Colorado
Senator Kenneth NJ cellar Of Ten
nessee, Senator Edward j. Guy of
Louisiana, Representative Halvor
Steenerson Of Minnesota, Represeu
. tative Martin B. MaddcI of Illinois,
Representative Thomas NJ. Bell Of
Georgia and Representative A. B.
Rouse of Kentucky.
write to any one, or two, or all
Of these, and demand fair play for
the postal clerks
above all things, WRITE.
DO not be satisfied with merely
agreeing that the pay of these clerk
is unjust, unfair, shameful. That is
all right, as far as it goes, but it will
not produce results.
! Bring pressure to bear upon con-
+ gress-and the way to do that is
through a little stationary and a
stamp or so.
Inc United States government is
paying its oldest and best postal
clerks and letter carriers $3.50 a
year, which includes a bonus Of $3.50
granted by congress last year as a
concession to high prices. For the
first year Of their service the pay of
these men II on $1,000

convention at Geneva, June 6 to IL.
I'VE took in as much as $4,000 one
day." said Mrs. Baur. But I'm not
going to tell what sort of party was
the best mOney-maker. The Demo
cratic women might steal our
thunder"
It's no secret, though, that the big
cabaret-where pretty debutants in
glngham gowns sold flowers and toy
balloons-wasn't nearly as successful
financially as some of the community
card parties.
"The prizes drew them," said Mrs,
Baur. I'VE gave away everything
from Maltese cats to vacuum clean
ers."
At one dancing party the women
also had card games, palmist, psy-
chic readers, movies and refresh
ments. And at series of leap year
smokers the women invited men to
escort them. And everybody Clipped
in.
Mrs. Baur is no beginner at busi-
ness. Some call her the "Soda Wa
er Queen" for she has been running
her husbands liquid carbonic business
since he died in 1912 and left her a
couple of million dollars. She has
been active in suffrage and is credit
ed with leading the harmony cam
paign last winter that united three
rival political factions among women
and started them on the way to
raise Chicago's 100000 share of
the women's million-dollar national
fund.

Thus, by his own standards, I'm
Gle Sam is underpaying most dill
gent, faithful and efficient body of
essential workers from SO to 1O8 per
cent.
The unfairness of the postoffice
department does not stop here. Pos
tai clerks and letter, carriers get, it
is true, a ffteen-day vacation with
pay, but they get no pay when absent
because of sickness. Letter carriers
are peculiarly exposed to infection.
Clerks in most of the executive de-
parts at Washington get not only a
month vacation with pay but also
an aggregate sick leave of a month
before pay is deducted. There is no
excuse for such discrimination.
IF private employer were to per
slsC for a long time in underpaying
his men he would face protests, or
ganlzation, strike.
The postal employees have pro-
tested and organized, but they do not
strike, for they are public servants.
Instead, they are appealing to their
employers, the American people, for
justice 1t is the only collective
method of redress they have. 1t puts
the people on honor to consider their
appeal generously and to help them
They are moderate in what they
ask. They seek only minimum wage
Of Sl,8OO a year and a maximum of
$1,000, both under the cost of whole
some family maintenance as prices
stand. But they insist that this rea-
sonabIe request be considered at once
and not be put off, as congress has
hitherto lodged this subject.
Help the postal clerks in their
brave and Iong-sustalned battle fer
fair play, reader.
Write to Washington-w write To-
DAY. Do not put it of.
