Congress Fails to Act on ConneC-

By GEORGE H. MANNING Washington Bureau, N. B. Herald)

Washington, D. C., July S-Des- pite repeated efforts on the part of Senator Hiram Bingham to get fav- orable action on his bill authorizing a congressional committee to visit and report on conditions in the Philippine Islands, the measure goes over until the next session.
 Born in the Hawaiian Islands, Senator Bingham always has shown a lively interest in American affairs in the Pacific. It was his hope that congressional committee might be authorized to visit the Philippines this summer, study economic and political conditions there, and report fully to congress before further dis cussion of the future status of the Islands was had in congress.
 Last April, Senator Bingham sought to get a vote on his proposal but the senate voted 25 to 50 against considering the bill at that time. June the bill which is on the senate calendar. came up in the course of calling the calendar and passed without objection, but later iii the day, Senator Walter r. George, democrat, of Georgia, call cd attention to the action and asked unanimous consent to reconsider This consent was granted and the bill was reinstated on the calendar On June 6, and again on June "A Senator Robert M.

ANCIENT DOCTOR
 BOOK PUBLISHED
Author Was Imhotep, Court
 Physician to PharaOhS

Chicago, July s UP) The worlds first doctor book" written 4,700 years ago on the banks of the Nile, was put in type and bound to- day by the University of Chicago press.
 Imhotep. who composed the treatise, was court physician to the Pharaoh's about 5000 B. C. He made the first known scientific attempt to put aside superstition in the treat ment in mans ailments and suhsti- ute facts from which logical deduc- tions might be drawn.
 Translation by Dr. James Henry Breasted. noted orientalist of the University of Chicago, reveals that he reported 5S examinations, recom- mending treatment in 42 cases.
 Imhotep added the word brain to anatomical nomenclature for the first time and indicated he had dis covered that mans body was pos sessed of a circulatory system cen- tered in the heart.
 He likewise showed that he appre- ciated localization of brain func- tions. a matter which only within the present generation has been thoroughly investigated, for he told of observing how injury on one side of the head seemed to produce par alysis on the same side of the body.
 His "book'--as copied a thousand wears later and added to on a piece of papyrus more than IS feet long spoke of adhesive tape, lint, band ages. splints and surgical stitching
 Although there were a number of surgical instruments undoubtedly in use at the time. he mentioned but one. a fire drill employed in cauter- izing,

 It appears that some of the sena- tors look upon the proposal as mere l. authorization for a junketing trip for four senators and five represen- tatives at government expense. Some of the democrats hope that legislation will be passed looking 10 the ultimate independence of the Philippines, and in view of that prospects they see no reason why the government should send con- mission to the islands at this time.
 At any rate, Senator Bingham's best efforts to obtain passage of his bill, failed to get the desired action.

 Senator Bingham, who introduced the measure because of his being chairman of the committee on ter ritories and insular affairs, ushered i. through the senate on June 80. The committee on insular affairs of the house, however, took no action on the measure and consequently it will not be taken up until the De- cember session.
 The senator from Connecticut ex- plained that he introduced the bill at the request of the Porto Rico legislature. He pointed out that the island was name Porto Rico at the time it was taken over by the United States although the word Porto, while of Latin derivation is un- known on the island.
