During the conference they all

criticism if one OF their number
had dared to do so.
PeSka's remarks were caused by
recent criticisms which provoked
controversy as to whether the minds
of youths are being demoralized by
nude and near-nude burlesque
shows.

CHICAGO, Feb. 13.-Art does not

Madison street burlesque house in
Chicago as we'll as along artistic
Michigan boulevard-it's just the
way you look at it.
To the establishment of reform

Peska, city prosecutor, today ex-
planned his views on the purported
obscenity of burlesque perform
ances in Chicago theaters.
1.-The line of demarcation between
art and obscenity is so small that it
often is difficult to determine"
Peska said. Its the manner of
presentation that must be watched.
artistic productions might be re-
moved from refined surroundings to
a burlesque house and If properly
presented would not be obscene.
Nudity by itself is not obscenity, it's

Doctors Enter Politics

Doctors, in their fight for better health, often find
their program blocked by antagnistic or unsympa-
thetic legislators.
SO to be able to carry out their aims they propose
TO enter the lists as candidates for places in the Texas
house OF representatives and the state senate.
AZ least this was proposed at the Texas. Medical
association convention here Wednesday. 1t is doubt
full whether many doctors will give the time necessary
TO conduct a campaign for office.
They are trained for service to humanity in an
other way-by relieving suffering and combating dis
ease-and 1t is likely they will consider this Of great
er Importance than being elected to an office which
can hold no financial appeal for leaders in the medi-
cal profession.
1t is possible that many doctors could be elected
to the legislature II they should really desire the Of
flee. but will they desire 1t sufficiently to conduct the
kind Of campaign necessary to success? 1t IS doubtful.
What, then, shall they dosto accomplish the things
they so earnestly desire for the good Of humanity?
Education OF the public is a slow process, but a sure
one. This probably will be the only solution. As the
public is educated to the needs Of the doctors to make
effective their public health campaign the public will
bring pressure to bear on the legislators who are en-
trusted with the law-making power. Then the laws
the doctors desire will be enacted.
The doctors possibly will find a program which in
cludes support OF men favorable to their ideas more
effective than actually becoming candidates for the
offices.
An intensive campaign is to be carried on in Texas
20 obtain medical legislation. the convention here de-
cided.
Some OF the demands OF the doctors are:
Improvement OF equipment in state hospitals.
Separate buildings for the treatment Of acute in
gections and contagious diseases.
Immunization against smallpox and typhoid fever
In hospitals.
That tubercular patients be segregated.
That state psycopathic hospitals be constructed at
Dallas and Galveston. in accordance with the pro-
visions OF existing laws.
That a hospital be. built for tubercular children.
And that a hospital be built in connection with the
orphans home in Corsicana In which to treat Grip
pied children
1t Is a fine program.
