TOO MUCH CUTT INC
 ASSERTS DR. MAYO
Only 0ne-Fifth Surgeons 0p- erating Qualified, Declares
 Famous Practitioner
By JAMES M,CLAIN

(By Leased Wire To ASe-heraIu.)
 CHICAGO, Oct. 23.-Only one-fifth of the American doctors performing operations are qualified surgeons, pr. William J. Mayo of Rochester, Minn., declared Tuesday In 8 warning to the American College of Surgeons against illegal and incompetent practitioners.
 "There are 1500O0 medical practi- tioners in tho United States, and more than 50,000 of them are performing operations, although but 10000 are qualified surgeons" Dr. Mayo de- clared. "Only 5000 maintain mem bership in this organization, which is necessary to keep abreast with prog ress.
 America has a sufficient number of trained surgeons to do the neces- sary work, and the untrained men, in justice to the patient, should not undertake surgery.
 Sees Menace To Profession
 "The man of ability, without char acter, who trades commercially on the confidence of the patient, is the most dangerous member of the med ical profession. The sale of patients by the general practitioner to the interruptions surgeons led to un- necessary operations and has be- come a public scandal"
 Dr. Mayo advised prospective pa- tients to consult the directory of sur geons who are fellows in the college for information regarding reputable men in all parts of the country who are competent to perform necessary operations.
 New York city loomed Tuesday as the strongest bidder for the surgical convention in 1924.
 Clinic On Anaesthetic
 Visiting surgeons split into two nj clinical Cr Tuesday for demonstration work in laboratories of Chicago hospitals and medical schools. The outstanding clinic was in the use of ethylene, a new anaesthetic, which does not pro- duce nausea in the patient and which is considered one of the greatest dis coveries of the surgical science in the modern age. Operations on the bladder, brain, lungs and other or gans of the body were successfully performed in this demonstration. Ethylene has been used on 907 pa- the Presbyterian hospital here, and only one death resulted, while five were nauseated.
 Other clinics and conferences dur ing the day brought out a number of important factors, affecting the sur- gical science. Among them were:
 Surgeons may soon be able to change the sex of child after birth.
 Asthma, long held incurable. has been added to the curable diseases.
 Cancer remains the most baffling mystery in the medical world.
 Considerable progress has been made in treatment of cancer and tumor, however, by use of the deep x-ray.
 The x-ray Is replacing the more expensive use of radium for surface treatment, but will never replace radium for internal use.
 Goitre is now fairly we'll con- trolled.

VIRTUAL CIVIL WAR
 ENGULFS GERMANY
Stresemann Regime Again Totters In Face Of Riots, In
 Which Many Killed

BERLIN, Oct 23.-(By Associated Press. .)-Another parliamentary cri- sis, and one which will harbor far more serious internal ramificatitns than that which recently carried pr; Stresemann into office for second time at the head of loosely jointed coalition, Is an early prospect, Tn the opinion of political leaders. So- cialistic impatienee with the Strese- mann governments tolerance of Ven Kahr, the Bavarian dictator. and the indignation of the radicals over the resolute manner in which Sax ony is being dealt with under the existing state of military law al- ready constitute points of diverg- ence, which threaten the socialists defect.on from the present coalition.
 The chancellor's failure to make prompt and categorial use of his die tatorial authority in enforcing urg- ent remedial measures Is also caus- ing restiveness In the ranks of the radical party and its principal organ, Vorwaerta, which is not holding back plain-spoken criticism of the government in which the party is represented by three ministers. Among the reichstag leaders there Is a feeling that Chancellor Strese- nanns majority is no longer liable asset to him in parliament and that he may find himself without adequ- ate support when the house recon venes next Friday. The government will then be called upon by the rad icals to explain the apparent dis crepancy whereby Saxony is overrun with reichswehr divisions, whereas Bavaria is permitted to Hout the central governments authority at pleasure.
 Dr. Yon Kahr's rebellion is prim- arily aimed at the socialistic regime, which he asserts has constantly dom- mated the Berlin cabinet.
 Beset with a score of ailments Of foreign and internal origin, the Stresemann cabinet has seemingly contented itself to drift, with mum berless adversities confronting it. It's failure to halt the further collapse of the mark has incidentally also seri- ously handicapped it's efforts to float a new currency based on gold standard. Along with the collapse tf finances, has gone the development of more serious conditions in the food situation throughout Germany, which daily is assuming more mem acing proportions, especially In the r,,atrOpo1ttau NenteTs.

GRAFT CHARGED
 IN U. s. HOSPITAL.
San Francisco Architect Paid $64,000 For Plans That
 Were UnuSabIe

WASHINGTON, Oct. 2s.-stste- ments somewhat sensational in char acter regarding the purchase of the site for and the preparation of origi- nal plans of an as yet unconstructed government tuberculosis hospital at Livermore, Cal, were read today into the record of the senate committee Investigating the Veterans bureau. counsel for the committee, presented report from A. E. Graupner, chair
 man of the California district re- mobilization committee, which said charges had been made directly to Former Director Charles R. Forbes, under whose administration the pur- chase was made, that the transaction was "surrounded by graft" The re- port added that at the time MT. Forbes made no denials of this or other allegations made to him by American Legion representatives.
 Before this report was read, Brig adler General Hines, director of the bureau, testified that Mathew O'Brien, a San Francisco architect, employed under <he administration of MT. Forbes, had been paid $64,000 for plans for the hospital which sub sequently proved unusable. MT. OBriens contract called for a fee of five per cent of the total cost of the project, s1,60o, 900. General Hines said, and Charles H. Stratton of the bu- reau's building department, told the committee that under the usual prac- tice in the building trade, MT. OBrien's fees should not have ex- ceded $4S,000, at least until a con- tract for construction had been let. Meantime, new plans for the hospital are in preparation by the bureau force.
 MT. Forbes, who attended the open ing of the hearings yesterday and several times sought to challenge statements placed in the record, was absent from the sessions today. The condition of his health is regarded as serious by his friends, who are re- ported to have advised him to con serve his strength until such time as he can have free opportunity to re- ply to the charges made concerning u 4 ,.nnic cti.nt cara

WHITES YOU. SEE EVERYDAY

White Trucks have been familiar sights on Birming giazn's streets for more than a decade. The w. O. Broyles Furniture Co. was opcrat- ing a White Truck as far back as 1911. One White owned by this company has run more than 200 900 miles - more than eight times around the world at the equator. Another Broylcs White has passed the 100, ,000-mile mark.
 There are more White Trucks in the oil industry than trucks of any other make. Notice the Whites of the Gulf Refining Co. and the Standard Oil Go. of Kentucky on the streets. The former company owns a fleet of 1,Z54 Whites and the latter's fleet of Whites num- bers APO.
 The city owns 21 Whites. Munic- qualities generally have recognized the economy and dependability of Whites. New York City owns more Lndu oUU or them.
 Among public utilities the Whites are the standard. The Alabama Power Co. and the Birmingham Railway, Light and Power Go. both operate Whites. There are more than 100 Whites in the service of the Southern Bell and the Cum berland Telephone and Telegraph companies.
 Beginning with two Whites in 1917, the Birmingham Chero-cola Bottling Co. has increased it's fleet until it now numbers 32 Whites. Bottlers' trucks must be depend able.
 Avondale Mills have an old White veteran which has run more than 100000 miles.

At a meeting of the directors of the
Tamarack & Custer Consolidated Min
ing company yesterday afternoon a
dividend of cents per share was
authorized, payable Octobed 1 to
stockholders of record on September
20. The d sbursements will lamount
to 100000 and bring the total paid
by the company this year up to $780, -
600. The directors also authorized the
construction of an addition to the mill
with the view to increasing its ca
pacity. which is now understood to
be 300 tons per day. This action is
probably taken in anticipation of the
completion of crosscut from the old
Green Hill Cleveland workings, which
will give the Tamarack an outlet on
Canyon creek through what was for
merly known as No. 6 Mammoth. the
portal of which is a short distance
above the mill. This new outlet is ex-
