eral practitioners. Approximately 142,-
900 physicians were engaged in active
practice at the end Of 1929, it was found.
OF these 121 900 were In private practice
and about 2,100 held salaried positions.
The average net income Of physicians
in private practice was $5,467-about 81
per cent Of their gross receipts.
The report points out that the median
net income of physicians, $3,827, was
slightly higher than that of dentists,
$3,781. In general, the more prosper
Gus the area the higher the physicians
income. Gross incomes were highest
in the Middle Atlantic States and on
the Pacific Coast, while they sank al
South Central States.
Small Town Incomes.
The average net income in commu-
mites of less than 5000 population was
$4,000, as compared with an average
of $500 in cities of more than a mil
lion inhabitants. The highest average
net income, $1,000, was received by
physicians in cities OF from 100000 to
100000 population. Complete special
lists received an average net income OF
$4,000; partial specialists, S6.l00, and
general practitioners, $500 The peo-
pie Of the United States. spent approxi-
naately on a per capita basis s3.55 for
complete specialists, $l95 for partial
speci, lists, and $3.40 for general prac-
titioners.
The study revealed that physicians
normally collect only about 80 per cent
OF their charges. This fact is of great
significance in the economies of medical
care, it is panied out, since it means
that 80 per cent of the people must
pay for the medical care of all.
Physicians whose total gross income
amounted to less than $1,000 collected
only 81 per cent of their bills, it was
found, while so per cent we're collected
by those whose gross incomes ranged
between 5000 and $l0.0oe.s

HALF OF NATIONS PHYSICIANS
INCOMES HELD UNDER So 300
1929 Revenues Reported by Committee on Costs of
Medical Care.

Half the doctors in the United States
had net incomes Of less than $500,
Is per cent of them less than $500,
and 4 per cent lost money in the boom
year of 1929 at the peak of American
prosperity, according to an exhaustive
study of the earnings Of physicians
made public today by the Committee
on the Costs Of Medical Care, headed
by Secretary of the Interior Wilbur.
The report states that although few
physicians have exceptionally large in
comes a greater proportion have earn
ings inadequate to support their fami-
lies than in any other learned pro-
fessicn. The physicians have been very
hard-hit by the depression, the report
shows. Incomes declined an average
of II per cent during 1890 and figures
for the first six months of 1891 showed
a still sharper drop. It Is believed
this has been progressive up to the
present.
Final Report Tuesday.
The final report on medical costs
will be made ct o meeting Of the COM
mittee in New York City next Tuesday.
Recommendations also will be made
based on the five-year study Of means
of reducing medical costs to the gen.
eral public.
General practitioners, the report
states, felt the effects of the first year
of the depression more severely than
specialists. Hardest hit were doctors
in the cotton States Of Texas, Okla
homa, Arkansas and Louisiana, whose
net incomes decreased SO per cent in
1880. Physicians employed on salary,
1t was found, suffered no pay cuts.

ton counsel was sent into the cell to
find out the trouble. Upon receiving
his report, Judge Given refused to try
Socco and announced he would find
out why the man was sent to court in
his condition. The judge characterized
the incident es one of the "moSt inhu-
man" of which he had ever heard.
Just what would have happened to
Socco If he had been tried and freed,
no one at court was able to say. He
said he had no money, no relatives in
Washington and no place to stay.
He was returned to the hospital for
treatment and the case against him
continued indefinitely.
DR.. E. G. Bocock, head of Gallinger
Hospital, in reply to an inquiry, made
this statement:
Patient was admitted by No. l po-
lice on October % with diagnosis of
alcoholism, fracture of collar bone and
flbula (small bone in lower leg). x-ray
showed simple fractures, with frag-
ments in good position. Treatment in
form of cast was applied and worn I'M

complete and same no longer required
The cast was removed and limb now in
excellent condition. Patient has been

etc, since cast was removed. He is not
in need of further hospital care. al
though may have some pain in leg for
several weeks, and is considered by the
staff perfectly able to go to court or to
his home.
There is no reason why he should not
have walked into court and stood trial,
except desire not to do so that only
appeared this morning. when he learned
he was to be discharged from the hos

some oversight this particular garment

I'LL. BARS DOOR
TO INSURGENTS
Group Demanding Hunger
March and Soviet Recog-

BY the Associated Press.


CINCINNATI, Ohio, November a.
Failing to crash the gates" of the
American Federation of Labor conven-
ton here, a band of 26 insurgent labor
leaders headed today for their homes.
Led by Louis Weinstock of the
painters union Of New York, the In
surgents yesterday attempted to in
wade the federation convention hall,
but were turned back by locked doors
and policemen.
Weinstock said his group wanted to
demand federation support Of 'imme-
diate" unemployment insurance, of a
hunger march to Washington, recogni-
ton of the Soviet Republic and of plans
to slash the salaries of federation OH
cialS.
Denied admittance to the convention
hall, Weinstock said the group would
come back" again next year.
The convention was in adjournment
today while the delegates temporarily
set aside the weighty problems of eco
nomics and concentrated upon Thanks
giving observances.
Commenting on the insurgents at
tempt to enter the convention, william
Green, president Of the Federation, said
Weinstock's delegation was "an ire
sponsible group. We regarded their
visit as an intrusion. Our meeting is
for officers and delegates of the A F.

BLAMES WOMEN
|. IN UNEMPL PLOYMENT
Miss Mary Anderson Attacks
Practice of Accepting
Low Wages.
BY the Associated Press

by the Associated Press.
CINCINNATI, November 24.-At least
one woman blames women for part CT
the unemployment among American
men. She is Miss Mary Anderson, for
ner immigrant and factory worker, who
was here today to address the American
Federation of Labor convention.
Miss Anderson, director OF the Wom-
ems Bureau Of the Department of La
Dor, says many American fathers with
children to support are jobless because
women will take work paying only 81
and IS week. But what" she asked.
"can be done about it?"
Women don't want to take low
wages, she said. But they have to
take whatever they can get. ~
Women have dependents Just as men
have. Women have decrepit parents
and helpless little brothers and sisters,
too."
She used figures to illustrate how
women workers have increased, often to
the accompaniment Of wholesale dis
charging of men.
There were two and one-half million
more women employed in 1890 than In
1920. They got one-third to one-half
less pay than men were getting for the
same work
Hence. many employers, finding they
could hire women for less than they
were paying men, fired the men and
took on more women workers. @-
"It used to be the competition Of i'm
migrants that hurt American labor
now it's the competition Of women; and
from women it is extending to Negro
men and Negro women" @
The only way American women can
raise their working standards Is through
organization, Miss Anderson believes,
bue she does not countenance the idea
of seperate labor union for women.

FARMER, z, TAKEN
BY RUSE IN BATTLE
Machine Guns and Tear Gas,
Fail in Slx.Hour Fight
Around Home.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
ROSS, KY, November 24.-A fghtin'
72-year-old farmer who barricaded his
home and drove off six county officers
though they battled him with machine
guns and tear gas bombs for more than
six hours, finally was captured last
night by ruse.
One officer was wounded and another
man was hurt before the embattled
prisoner.
1t was the lure Of business that final
iy delivered the aged man into the
hands of the law. Trying to prevent
a killing, a neighbor, John Leopold, ap-
preached the house while the officers
retired from the scene.
Leopold inquired whether Henzimeier
would sell him some corn.
Cautiously the old farmer t1nfastened
a shutter and peered out
"I reckon I might If them police are
gone" he replied.
"Oh. saw them going down the
road" assured Leopold. Were they
looking for you?"
"Shootin' at Me AL Day"
"They been shootin' at me all day, "
said Henzimeier. but I guess they've
given UP hope"
Then accompanying Leopold, Hen
zimeier walked to the corn crib BEHIND
his home, where three officers pounced
upon him from the darkness.
Six hours earlier, Henzimeier, re-
fusing to submit to arrest, barricaded
himself in his big stone house atop
a hill near here and prepared for a
battle of indefinite duration.
He sent q charge Of buckshot at WI
liam Stratus, an officer who attempted TO
enter Q rear door. Straus retired
promptly, painfully but not seriously
wounded. ~
Then Ed Morsher, o neighbor. ap-
preached the house to appeal to Henzi-
meier to surrender. A volley of shot
sent him scampering to cover and. fall.
ing as he ran, he suffered dislocated
shoulder.
By that time the battle was raging.
Machine gun bullets by the hundreds
were rained upon and into the house.
Enough tear gas bombs were hurled
through the windows to have put a
small army to weeping. Yet Henzimeier
held out.
Shooting Is Charged.
Finally "the law" which had sought
the farmer en- a warrant charging
shooting at another neighbor with in
tent to kill, decided to resort to the
ruse which resulted In the capture.
When the officers later entered the
house they found shotgun, an auto
matte pistol, plenty of ammunition and
so much tear gas still remaining that
it caused them suffering, and they ex-
pressed surprise 1t hadn't driven Henzi-
meier out.
oh" replied the captured but still
proud old man, "it didn't bother me at
all"

SOV|ET-JAPANESE
CO-OPERAT|ONENDS
Mission Seeking to Free
Manchukuo Hostages Asked
to Leave Siberia.
Nv the Associated Press

BY the Associated Press.
TOXIC, November 24.-A rift oc-
CURED today in the heretofore friendly
cooperation between Russia and Japan
during the rebellion in Northwestern
Manchuria.
This information came from Eiji
Amoh, Japanese charge d'affairs in
Moscow, who sent a Russian govern
ment communication to the foreign
Office asking that the Japanese military
mission at Machevskaya leave Siberia
soon.
The mission has been at Machev-
skaya to negotiate with the rebel
Chinese general Su Ping-Wen, who
captured and held nearly 800 japanese
few weeks ago when he took charge
of large slice of Manchuria against
the Soviet border.
Through the good Offices of Russia,
120 Japanese women and children were
released, and AZ more were reported set
free last week, leaving about 100 still in
the hands OF Su's irregular Chinese
troops.
Gets Unfavorable Reception.
The Russian request was handed to
Amoh By L. NJ Karakhan, vice COM
misar for foreign affairs, whose state
ment said the hope Of negotiating with
Gen. Su was apparently futile. The
Soviet vice commisar asked the Japanese
to stop using the air field at Dauria
nearby, where supplies intended for the
captive Japanese had been landed.
The communication was received un-
favorably in Toxic. especially M Karak-
hans accompanying comment that the
Soviet government was certain from
the beginning that Gen. Su would re-
fuse to treat with the japanese. (Gen.
Su recently was reported as saying he
would not meet the japanese, and they
threatened to wipe him out, even If it
endangered the lives of the Japanese
hostages.)
Suspicious Reinforced.
The foreign Office said this statement
by the Russian tended 70 reinforce the
longheld suspicious here that Soviet
influence was involved in Sus rebellion
against the new state of Manchukuo.
The foreign Office spokesman said the
Soviet had long exerted an influence in
the Manchurian districts west of the
Kinghan Mountains, leading the Japan
ese to the belief that Moscow could
have ended Gen. Su's rebellion If 1t
had desired.
Heretofore the highest japanese off,
cials including Gen. Sadao Araki, the
minister of war, had asserted they had
no reason to believe the Soviet was
involved in Gen. Sus uprising.
1t is understood Toxic will ask
Moscow to withdraw the request for the
departure of the mission on the grounds
that there was still hope Gen. Su would
negotiate.

RI Has Been ReOrganized

With William Miller as chairman,
the Taxpayers League of Garrett
county was reorganized recently at
the Court house. Bylaws and the
purposes of the league were drawn up
at this meeting. s.-...
The purposes of the league, accord
ing to Mr.. Miller, are to arouse the
taxpayers of Garrett county to the
importance of taking a more active
part in the solution of the tax prob
lens, with view of placing limita-
tions upon the expenditures Of money;
to limit the total tax burden within
the ability of the taxpayer to pay;
to demand a strict accounting of all
public moneys levied, collected, and
disbursed by county officials; to favor
repeal of local laws applying to Gar
rett county which are burden on the
individual taxpayer, or which serve
special interests and advocate the re-
peal of enactment of such local and
general laws which will relieve the
over-burdened taxpayers.
The bylaws call for a Board of
directors of not less than three or
more than five from each election
district of the county, the board as
elected on April 16, at Oakland, to
hold office for one year.
