Doctor Explains
Medical Ethics

Explanation of the medical code Of
ethics and a doctors duties to the
public which he serves was made By
DIR. W. Il. Russ, speaker at the Co
nopus Club meeting, Friday at - is
p. m. in the Menger Hotel.
at is a mistake to think that the
medical profession is governed by a
queer code of ethics that requires
doctor to destroy his own business by
promoting public health and the pre-
yentiOn Of disease" DIR. Russ said.
'sThe code Of ethics under which We
perform is that the doctor, best fitted
to perform because OF his training, is
best fitted TO take the leadership in
matters pertaining to public health"
DIR. o. Fl. Judkins was chairman of
the meeting.
Miss Alice Simpson and Mrs. Bet

WILBUR DISAPPROVES
NURSES ACQUITTAL
ON LIQUOR CHARGES

WASHINGTON. D. c., Aug. 21.-
The verdicts of not guilty returned by
court-martial board last june
against Miss Ruth N. Anderson and
Miss Catherine Clancy. navy nurses
charged with violation of the Volstead
act in bringing liquor into the United
States from the West Indies, were
disapproved today by Secretary Will
bur.
simultaneously with the imposition
Of sentences on fouI navy officers
found guilty in connection with the
discovery of liquor aboard the trans
port Beaufort when she arrived some
months ago at Norfolk, the secretary
declared the evidence against the
nurses was sufficient to have war
ranted conviction. His action in dis
approving the findings will have no
practical punitive effect, however, as
under navy regula tons where a yer.
dict of not guilty has been returned a
new trial may not be ordered.

NO DISCRIMINATION
AGAINST THE BLACKS
A NEGRO PHYSICIAN LOSES
SUIT AGAINST RAILROADS
FOR $4,000 DAMAGES.

WASHINGTON, D. C.-Recom-
mendation that the railroads of the
south and the Pullman company be
acquitted of charges OF racial dis
elimination was laid before the inter
state commerce commission today by
one of its examiners who investigat
ed the subject.
The investigation resulted from a
complaint by DR.. E. Crosby, a negro
doctor, who sought damages of $780,,
600 because of alleged discrimination.
John McChord, attorney-examiner
who took evidence for the commission
in the case, reported that unjust dis
elimination or prejudice against per-
sons of the colored race in favor OF
persons of the white race has not
been shown as alleged and added
further that "the commission has no
jurisdiction to award punitive or ex-
emplary damages" He recommended
that the commission dismiss the com
plant and deny any reparation.
DR.. Crosby asserted in entering the
proceeding that the Nashville, Chat
tanooga and St. Louis railway in 1928
had failed to furnish necessary ia
cilities for the comfort of colored pas
sengers" on a trip from Chattanooga
to Atlanta.
Also in April, 1922, he declared he
was refused a pullman ticket from
Chattanooga to Chehaw, Ala, on the
Atlanta and West Point railroad. He
alleged other refusals to give pullman
accommodations on the Louisville and
Nashville railroad during 1923.
During the hearings general officials
Of the Pullman company declared
there had been no refusal generally
to sell pullman tickets to negroes.
The other grounds OF complaint as
cited by Crosby, the examiner said,
were encountered by previous rulings
of the commission declaring reason
able segregation of negro and white
passengers on trains in southern ter
ritory.

COMMITTEE REPORTS.

we, your committee appointed to
examine and report upon the Terrell
county chain gang, beg leave to report
that we have made an inspection and
ind that the number Of convicts has
been reduced to 80 at last report to
80 at present. AS to the. property on
hand, we have gone over the inven-
tory made by the last grand jury
committee and find that except for
1.-THE usual wear and tear to the ma
chinery we have practically the same
things on hand in about the same
condition. One Adams leaning wheel
S-foot grader, at a cost Of $780, has
been added; also one three-way road
drag at a cost of $40 has been added.
Supplies on hand are about the same
as heretofore. Supplies seem to be we'll
cared for and kept in good condition.
The same committee having been
appointed to report upon public build
ings, beg leave to report that we find
the jail in bad shape and very much
in need of repairs-a new front porch
being badly needed, the cell doors are
sagging and getting in bad shape, and
we recommend that they be fixed at
once. We understand that efforts are
now being made to have this work
done. The court house we find in fair
ly good shape, and are informed that
the roof has been repaired and does
not now leak. The store house known
as the dispensary building, owned by
the county, has been rooted with gal
vanized iron this year and does not
now leak Respectfully, J. A. Fergu-
son, ]. r. Bridges, T. A. Saunders,
Committee.
County Officers.
We, your committee appointed to
examine the books OF the county Off
GERS, beg leave to report that within
the limited time permitted we have
endeavored to perform our duties, and
find the records of the Clerk of the
Superior Court, the Sheriff, the Tax
Collector, Tax Receiver, Superintend-
ent OF Education, the Clerk of the
County Commissioners and the Ordi-
mary all neatly and correctly kept, ac-
cording to law, all apparently in good
order and properly indexed. We espe-
cially commend the Clerk of the SUI
perior Court and the Ordinary for the
very efficient manner in which the
records in each of the Offices are kept,
due to personal pride that each of
these officers take in their work.
We find that the Tax Collector is
not provided with a proper and safe
place in which to store his records,
and we recommend and urge. that a
vault be constructed in his office for
the safe preservation OF his records,
and that this be done at an early date.
We further recommend that the
Tax Collector be required to give a
fidelity bond, and that the county pay
for this bond and require the Tax
Collector to deposit all monies col
lected promptly with the County
Treasurer, and other proper officers.
The cost of such bond will be small,
and we believe that the saving OF in
The Dawson news. (Dawson, Ga.) 1889-current, 1925-11-24

terest paid for borrowed funds, if such
funds are turned over at once, will
more than pay for the premium on
such fidelity bond.
We believe that an annual audit of
the county books will be of value to
the county, as an annual audit can
be made more economically than one
every few years, and while we COM
mend the County Commissioners for
the audit recently made, a copy of
which has been submitted to us, it is
our judgment that an annual audit
will be better as we'll as cheaper. Re-
spectfully submitted, Marvin d.
Pierce, S. J. Carter, M. N. Childs,
Committee.
County Commissioners.
Since the last report of the Com
missioners of Roads and Revenues
was submitted to your body we have
had the services of an auditor in check
ing up and going over our books, as
we'll as the books of county officers
generally, and we herewith submit
this report to you for your informa-
ton.
Since this expert audit was made
there have not been any material
changes in the financial condition of
the county, as we have had but little
source of revenue coming in, hardly
enough to meet current expenses, as
taxes are just now being paid, and
slowly at that. Our Indebtedness has
been but slightly increased due to
current expenses being paid, and all
of the new indebtedness, as we'll as
some of the old, is expected to be paid
out OF the current years tax money.
1t has been the constant aim and
endeavor of the County Commission
ers to hold expenditures down to the
minimum, and we have only borrow
ed $1,000 new funds since the audit
was made, and this is to be repaid
with this years tax money.
On the whole we feel that we have
made progress by holding down ex-
penditures. We have had to renew
some Of the old indebtedness, and
have bought some supplies on credit
in the way of necessary machinery
and iron culverts, but feel that this
was in the interest of economy and
expect to pay for same this year. Re
spectfullv submitted, E. H. Stapleton,
Chairman.
