.BUTCHERY' AT
CLINICS FOUGHT
Physicians Unite in Protest
Against Operations on
Children.

LONDON, June 22.-Medical men are
uniting in a general protest against the
alleged "butchery" in some clinics, where
minor operations are performed on chill
dren from the elementary schools.
DIR. John Kynasten, a specialist of Wei
beck street, in lecturing to a London
nursing conference, said
1.-The routine treatment Of the symp-
toms of nasal obstruction by operation
has become an abominable scandal.
Every educational authority throughout
the country has either already provided
or is being urged to provide facilities
for adenoid and enlarged tonsn opera
lions.
1.-THE clinics are SO overcrowded as to
resemble shambles. Medical men have
been the first to denounce these arrange
ments, and are calling for the expendi-
ture of more public money to provide
beds, so that the little victims may be
kept as in-patients for a few days"
There is no doubt" said another we'll
known specialist, that the methods
adopted at many clinics need reforming
Children are brought to the clinics on
the appointed days in large numbers,
and the surgeon in charge has to perform
operations at breakneck speed. He has
an anaesthetist and a nurse with him.
The children come one after another"

Disappointing thrashing re-
turns came in freely from Indiana, Ohio
and Kentucky on winter wheat, and it
looks as though the winter wheat crop
totals would surely be reduced later. Re
ports from South Dakota were bad, from
all reporting sources, while North Da-
kota and Minnesota sent favorable news.
Not so much was heard about the bad
business outlook, but It must not be over
looked. The grains have Leen oversold
lately, on commercial and Wall street
news and recent sellers sought their
profits Tuesday. Houses with eastern con
nectlons were leading buyers. finding of
ferings light until prices made good ad-
vances. Cash premiums were noticeably
easier. losing as much as 4 cents on
some grades. The movement of new
wheat is starting slower than expected
and, but for the liberal movement yet Of
old wheat to fill previous sales, the
aggregate would look small. France re
ported droughty conditions prevailing and
Argentina is calling for rain. October

Corn and Oats-The demand for corn
came from two sources-those who had
sold Il so freely last week and new buy
ers who based their belief in higher val
ues later, on smaller receipts and ex-
pectation that crop scares would be in
order soon. Oats were strong almost all
day. Reports from central states and
South DaSeta were very unfavOrable.
Crop has had forcing weather at wrong
time and is filing poorly with light yield
and poor quality probable. We believe
Septaml er oats will work higher.
Provisions-Hogs were again sharply
higher and consumptive demand called
better. TtRde was light. but what was
done brought better prices. We feel
friendly to produce at present.
