BEST MEDICAL CARE
FOR WORKERS URGED
DR.. Pritchett Makes Plea for
Rural District.

The organization of the medical pro-
fession in the city and rural districts to
afford the man who earns average wages
the best medical treatment and advice
was urged last night in an address de-
livered before the members of the New
York Academy of Medicine, II West
Forty-third street, by Henry S. Pritchett,
for many years president of the Carnegie
Foundation. DR.. Pritchett in his adj
dress, which was entitled "A Layman's s
View of Medical Progress" reviewed In
a general way the progress made within
the last decade in the profession.
I'VE must reorganize medicine in the
rural districts" said DR.. Pritchett, FOR
the physicians are all turning toward
the city, and the rural communities and
small cities are being neglected.
Naturally the dcctor's best practice lihs
in the city. and the country does not
offer sufficient returns or the opportunity
for the research which a successful doc
tor must do. We therefore must or
ganize small hospitals in these smaller
cities and build Up the medical profess
sion in the smaller towns and outlying
districts. We must make it profitable for
the country doctor"

BEATTY GETS OVATION
LAUDING ARMS PARLEY
Praises Harding for Initiating
Move to Benefit World.

Special Despatch to THE New YoEK HERALD.
CHICAGO, Nov. "a great ovation was
rendered to Admiral Lord Beatty, hero
of Jutland at the conclusion Of his
speech to-day before the Chicago Asso-
citation of Commerce. Admiral Beatty
had just spoken feelingly of the dis
armament conference.
II have often been asked" he said, in
his incisive. deliberate manner, IF l
thought anything would come of the dis
armament conference.
THE answer is. of course, that some
thing will come of 1t. If nothing else, 1t
will be a beginning of our understanding
of each others point of view and diff
culties. Out Of it will be devised some
formula to ease the world from its bur-
dens We believe in Britain that out of
this conclave great things are going to
happen, and the world will live in peace
and contentment such as it has never
experienced before. For such impending
results we have to thank your great
President and the citizens of this country
for taking the initiative"
Referring to the part of the British
navy in winning the world war, Ad-
miral Beatty asserted that England
must also have large fleet in peace
times, pointing out that if England were
cut off from the rest of the world "she
would be starved into submission in
six weeks time"

PHYSICIAN CONFIRMS
HANGING OF SOLDIERS
Trials Held in Every Case,

DR.. Carroll f. Krichbaum of Milburn.
N. j.. when interviewed yesterday in
Flower Hospital. confirmed the report
published yesterday OF four former mem
bers of the Thirty-fourth Engineers
now living in Passaic, N. j.. who told OF
having witnessed military executions of
soldiers In France by hanging.
In every case of which he was cog
infant, however. the punishment was In
flicted only after due trial and review
by competent military authority. In
each instance the culprlts had been con-
vcted either OF felonious attacks upon
women or girls or else of murder.

Tile, France, which was the site of the
large base and supply camps OF the A.

then on duty there. Two negroes and
one white man were hanged In one day
at this post, though DR.. Krichbaum
thought their crimes had been committed
elsewhere. A detail of troops drawn up

Responses to the city wide appeal

Nichalos Salvaggl, chairman of the
League of Italian Clubs. said last night
that the Tammany municipal ticket
would lose almost the entire italian
vote

They have not forgotten that Craig
called La Guardia that Little Wop'
and worse and asked Hylan to hit him
on the head with his gavel. They know
what Hylan would say about La
Guardia, IL the latter were runnine
against him. Hylen and Craig are
making desperate efforts to hold par,

think we have short memories"

TWO SOCIALISTS GET
SEATS AS ALDERMEN
Lee and Cassidy, Elected Two
Years Ago, Finally Take
Tammany Mems Places.

Two years after they were elected and
twenty-five months since they filed their
contest, Algernon Lee and Edward F.
Cassidy, Socialist Aldermen, who were
counted out at the election, were seated
yesterday without a dissenting vote.
The boards action was upon report
OF the A!dermanic committee on privi-
leges and elections, whose delay in re-
porting was ended only after the Social
lists hal obtained a writ OF mandamus
and the Corporation Counsel had ap-
pealed it. Meanwhile an order to show
cause why they should not be found
guilty and punished for contempt of
court for failure to obey the original writ
is pending against eight members of the
committee.
While the Socialist contest charged
fraud, the committees report said that
evidence was lacking and that the mis-
count was due to mistakes. Abraham
Beckerman, Socialist member OF the COM
mittee. filed q minority report, contend
ing that evidence of fraud existed, and
that it was difficult. to believe a dis
erepancy OF 323 out of total of 450
votes could be due to error.
Moritz Graubard, one of the Tam
many members who was oustea for the
Socialists, was not present. Timothy j.
Sullivan, the other Democrat VINO lost
his seat, attended the meeting and de-
clared his willingness to donate the sal
airy he has drawn and which he Is en-
titled to keep to any charity the Social
lists would designate.
The board meeting was characterized
by bitter recriminations on the part OF
the Socialist members and a clash be-
tween Alderman Bruce NJ. Falconer, Re
publican, and Alderman William 7. Col
Inns Democratic floor leader.
Falconer charged that. whether there
was fraud at the election or not, fraud
had been committed by the Democratic
majority OF the board. and particularly
by their leader. because they had not
instructed the committee, whose major
ity Is Democratic, to report promptly.
Collins replied that Falconer. being a
Republican. had small room to talk, in
asmuch as his party had forced the So
cialists out Of the Legislature. He called
Falconer "bigoted and yellow" and the
chair was moved to ask the Democratic
leader to confne himself to the subject
of the committee report.
The gallery was crowded with Social
lists. who swarmed into the chamber
after the meeting. The committee on
privileges and elections congratulated
the seated Socialists.

ing inspectors appeared in the news
papers yesterday.
Last night there were still between
5000 and 5000 places to be filed in
the five boroughs. but Mr.. Voorhis said
that he expected them to be filled by
Saturday night. Some weeks ago Mr..
Voorhis, according to custom, asked
the county and executive cheirmen of
the Republican and Democratic organi-
cations to send in names OF candidates
for places. Some of these declined to
serve, although the majority appeared
before the board and qualified.
"The chairmen of the organizations,
said Mr. Voorhis, "are not obligated to
fill the places by their own selections,
and / have advised them that l shall
go ahead and fill vacancies outside

WOMEN FORMULATE
APPEAL FOR CURRAN
Thirty-four Of Various Types
and Organizations Unite to
Aid Coalition.

Thirty-four women representing va
rious types and organizations Of their
sex united in an appeal Yesterday for
women to justify their right to vote by
helping to defeat Mayor John r. Hylan
and electing Borough President Henry
II. Curran. 1t began:
"On November we New York women
will have our first opportunity to vote
in municipal election. 1t is our chance
TO make good our pledge when the vote
was given us, to clean house politically,
irrespective of party politics. We must
put our minds and hearts on this matter
OF city management now and see how the
administration which came into power
in 1917 has done its work."
Attention was called to the sadly neg
lected condition Of the schools, the high
rents due to increased taxation, the
fallacy OF the five-cent argument OF
the Mayor. the fact that the home and
the children are not properly protected
by a police administration more inter-
ested in money making and promoting
favorites. The appeal ends:
"On November s there are only two
ways open to us, we elect Hylan or we
elect Curran. No other vote counts. II
we want to make good our pledges
when the vote was given us and see
that we have n wholesome and decent
city administration, we must vote for
Curran. We women of New York have
our great chance. We can IL we will
put our city in order and show that
New York women can achieve good gov
ernment. Elect Curran, Lockwood and
Gllroy."

1t used to be that the job of ballot
clerk at the polling places OH election
day was one of the soft snaps that fell
to the hard workers of the organiza-
ton. but this year something seems to
have happened to the boys. Not only
have they not made application for
these places, but they have shown so
few signs that they will come forward
at the last minute that John r. Voor-
his. president of the Board of Elec-
tions, has been compelled to advertise
for helpers to man the polling places
next Tuesday.
Mr.. Voorhis said yesterday that this
was decidedly unusual, and the first
time that it had been necessary to do
such a thing In his recollection, which
goes back further than that of any
other politician in the five boroughs.
In spite of the cry OF unemployment
the job of being an election clerk has
gone begging. So advertisements call
