VIENNA, July 20.-A bitter con-
troversy between Vienna and New
York doctors is in full swing today
as the result Of three Vienna letters
published in the New York Medical
Journal contemporary criticising
the whole Vienna medical school.
The letters were written by the
former chairman Of the American
Medical Association of Vienna.
Vienna is as striking illustration
of how physical and mental deca-
dence go hand in hand said one
of the letters.
This was followed by a hot pro-
test written by a member Of the
medical faculty Of the University Of
Vienna, who said in part:
1.-The New York Medical Journals
correspondent evidently was under
the influence of paranoiacal hal
fluctuations when he wrote his
article"
The Vienna writer speaking for
the whole faculty of the University
of Vienna, continued:

Association of Vienna could not

From beyond the Benn1ng road
bushes came n1ournful whines to the
sharp ears Of the guardian of the

'Hark, bark, harkr' said he, in
the approved manner, and blew hii
rickle-plated whistle. A few thou

There is murder being done In
Adolph Loffler's home,'' whispered
desperate. Bring up the twelve

Cautiously the throng of blue
coats surrounded the house. One was
sent forward, camouflaged as a
quaking aspen. to get the lay of the
land. He returned-but a changed
man. It was plain to see he would
never be the same again.
What is it," the few thousand
murmured, in inquiry:
Slaughter of Innocents.
Worse than that" he gasped
Its a massacre. The Kiwanis Club
-150 of it-has corralled a lot OF
Loffler's innocent hot dogs, and are
slowly and deliberately amounting
them with mustard and destroying
them to the sound Of raucous laugh
ter"
Then there is nothing to do but
call on the National Guard" said
the leader of the sortie. Lets all
go away and see what help we can
get"
It Is not definitely known whether
the officers returned, but If they did,
they came when the damage had
been done. It was many hours be.
fore quiet was restored at the scene
of the massacre. Several families of
grasshoppers in the neighboring
fields, complaining that the suburbs
were getting worse and worse for
peaceful folks, moved awav in the
vicinity of the Eastern Branch.

Andy Loffler was host to his fel.
low Kiwanians at the orgy. The
cannibals gathered in a big tent
near the Loffler home. James T.
Gibbs, DR.. E. s. Smith and Charles

the Hot Dog Of Kiwanis. Roe Fulk-

and after-d1nner speeches led the
reign Of horror as the most imperial

The District Commissioners, Major
Daniel Sullivan, chief Of police;
U. S. Marshal e. c. Snyder and
Inspector Albert J. Headley, Of the
traffic bureau, were guests Of honor.

money be advanced.
