Profiteerina BY a Doctor.

A medical man in Nagykoros, near
Budapest, recently charged 5000
crowns (present value e., but pur
chasing value in a village about f6)
for single visit to patient who
lived not far from the doctors resi-
dence. This patient sued the doctor
for "profteering," but the court dis
missed the case. The plaintiff APP
pealed, however, to higher court,
which gave judgment against the doc
tor, on the ground that the demand
ing of an exorhitant fee for profess
aonal services was to be regarded as
profiteering, and was therefore illegal
It was decided that mental workers
could fairly be considered as profiteers
In such cases; no exception could be
made concerning doctors, for although
the latter did not technically receive
wages" their services came within
the accepted meaning Of work"

reversed Supreme Court Justice
Wagner, who refused to restrain
Commissioner Gilchrist from revok-

In ruling that A. H. Woods, the

power to revoke a theater license
was given in the city charter only
to a judge or justice Of a court Of
record in the city.
The appellate division held that no
right of censorship of any play is
expressly given to the commissioner
of licenses. The right of censorship
OF moving pictures, the decision
points out, was conferred upon a
board appointed by the governor.

made renewable by the court.
