WHEN DOC. MEETS DOC.
THERE'S SOME MIXING OF
MEDICINE AND KNIVES

Boise, Ida. Feb. 19-One of the live
lest mix-ups in the legislature is over
what is known as the ostepath bill.
it passed the senate with practically
no opposition, after which the old
school doctors concentrated their eff
forts to kill the measure in the house,
where; at this writing, ithe bill is
pending.
The measure extends the right TO
ostepaths to perform surgery when
the admittedly highest requirements
ever exacted in a medical or surgical
legislative bill have ever met.
The old school doctors arguing
against het bill based their conten-
tons on the public welfare, but, at
one committee hearing, it was pointed
out that if the members of the oste-
pathic profession qualified as compe-
tent surgeons the public would be
benefited by the competition, cost of
operations considered.
Several persons, including members
of the legislature, appeared before the
committee and testified as to bnefits
received from other than straight medi
cal treatment, and it was openly
charged that the opposition OF the
regulars, or old school physicians, and
surgeons, was inspired by their de-
sire to continue a surgical monopoly.
The committee meetings were among
the hottest Of the session. Knives
were unsheathed, metaphorically
speaking, and operations were quite
frequent. minus the anaesthetic.

DIR. BANKS LECTURE

DIR Ranks talked to a small audience
al the Methodist Church last Tuesday
evening on the subject of World wide
prohibition. DR. Banks Is one OF tne
most forceful speakers ever in Sho-
shone and every one who falled 10
hear him missed a rare treat whether
they agreed with his deductions or not
He is earnestly engaged IN great
cause and puts his argument in a most
plausible and convincing form. Nat
urallv he is extreme in his views and
not all persons will agree with MN
that the Anti Saloon league is any
more essential to the enforcement OF
the prohibition law. now that 1t is a
law of the land than an anti-slavery
lea gre is necessary to enforce the l5th
amendment. DR.. Banks gave IL as his
opinion that the Volstead law has been
enforced efficiently since its enact
ment. In many places is has also
been enforced in such manner, as a
whole, as to indicate that the officials
charged with it's enforcement intended

VOICE Of Citizens /
IN C|TY'S AFFAIRS
Local Federation Gives 0p'
portunity in Registration
Week Membership Drive.

Every man and woman in the Dis
trict who desires voice in the affairs
of the city will be given chance TO
express that desire during Registration
week, beginning October %.
The membership committee of the
Federation Of Citizens Associations met
in the District building last night with
officers of more than twenty-five neigh
borhood associations and launched
plans for Registration week.
Registration dav In the forty-eight
states of the Union is the day on which
those men and women who would take
part in the affairs of their government
come forward and put their names on
the voting list.
The Washingtonian cannot vote, but
during the last week OF october the
federation will offer him the nearest s
approach to a voice in municipal az
fairs by inviting him to join his neigh
borhood citizens association.
Booths to Be Provided.
In order to give Registration week as
complete a political atmosphere as pos
sible. an effort will be made TO- estab-
Iish booths in the police stations. hre
engine houses or school buildings.
If these places can be obtained
every resident of the city who hereto
fore has taken no part in civic af-
fairs will be called upon to show
good citizenship by registering as an
organized citizen.
Although practically all of the as
sociations charge a nominal MEM
hership fee of 81 a year, the collec-
tion of revenue is not the object OF
the campaign. The real purpose Is
20 enable each association to repre-
sent as nearly as possible all of the
people in the territory it covers:
Officers of the federation believe
that if the people of Washington are
sincere in their demand for suffrage
in some form they will give prac-
tical demonstration of that demand
by enrolling in a citizens association
during Registratio nweek.
Plan to Raise Expense Fund.
In order to defray the expenses Of
the campaign each association will
be asked to give the federation %
cents on every new member enrolled
during Registration week.
Small buttons, bearing the inserip-
ton "Registeerd. 1921" will be given
each citizen as he enrolls.
The committee in charge of the
campaign expects to open headquar-
ters in the District building within
a few days, after which plans for the
week will go forward rapidly. Don
II. York is chairman of the COM
mfttee.
