ChirOpractic Association
Predicts Defeat For
Propositions Nos. g. IL

Last-minute confidence that the
Initiative Propositions 8 and II, af.
fecting the Chiropractic and Natur'
opathic professions in California
would be heavily defeated at the
polls, Tuesday. November 6. was ex.
pressed today by Or. James C. To-
bin, President of the California
Chiropractic Association, in Los An
geles.
"The reputable chiropractors OF
California" said DR.. Tobin, feel
that they have done everything in
their power to lay the truth and
the whole truth about the vicious
ness and iniquity of the two initia-
tive measures, Propositions Num-
bers and II, before the voters of
the State. in order that they might
intelligently cast their ballots to
halt, we hope, forever, a dastardly
attempt to throw the practice Of
medicine and surgery to anyone
who could make up the price Of a
State license.
We chiropractors want no such
license. The bold attempt Of GER
tain interests TO throw down all
bars protecting the people against
the Vaccinations of the horde Of
unprincipled fakirs. charlatans and
quacks who had planned so deter
minedly to exploit our people
should be sternly rebuked by the
mass of the voters in resounding
NO vote at the November 6 elec-
ton. Only the voters themselves
can save themselves from such
mulcting and bold exploitation.
Every effort should be made TO
kill both these meaSures-initiative
propositions 9 and II. because If
either should win out, 4: would re-
peal all inhibitions and safeguards
afforded the public health in the
present excellent and sufficient
Chiropractic laws. The proposed
amendment TO the Chiropractic law,
on the ballot as No. 8, is the most
vicious Of the two. For 1t gives the
alleged 'chiropractor,' if the bill be-
comes law, the legal right to ad-
minister and prescribe dangerous
drugs and narcotics. under the
guise of herbs and oils and their
derivatives to practice in medicine
and surgery. and tc perform other
functions that up to now lie solely
as they should-in the realms OF
physicians and surgeons.
so, we urge all voters, if they
value the public health, the safety
of their loved ones, and bar
against quacks, charlatans and SIM
liar fakirs. to 60 to the polls at the
election now so near. and kill prop
oSitions and II by voting NO on
each"

Cutten's recent trial on charges Of
violating the grain futures act by fall
ing to report deals in grain to the
Government.
Tugwell said it seems 'significant"
that during the period which Mr..
Cutten piously proclaimed his activi-
ties in supporting and providing .
market for the grain farmers. evi-
dence developed by the Government
would indicate that he was selling
short"
Repeal Efforts Charged.
"It will also be interesting to note
the relation between Mr.. Wickham
and the brokers who so obligingly as
sisted Mr.. Cutten," Tugwell added.
Perhaps you can suspect as I do why
the grain trade is so eager to procure
the repeal of the agricultural ADJUST
ment act and to block any clarifica-
ton of the license provisions"
Taxes levied on processing OF farm
commodities to reimburse growers for
curtailing production, were teriheo w
Tugwell "the very heart Of the farm
act" He cited benefits which he said
farmers received from the taxes.
ut seems rather foolish to deny
ourselves the natural abundance
which is at hand. yet If the farmer Is
to exist, If he Is to be kept producing,
a fair price is not only matter OF
Justice and decency, but necessary to
assure a constant supply Of basic
necessities" he said.
I'VE used the only means at hand,
under the competitive and money
economy, shocking as it seemed.
And II idle acres, turned-under
cotton and slaughtered little pigs con-
stitute a symbol of sin, the indictment
is against the whole system and not
against the farmers who wanted to
play the game and not the Govern
ment which helped them do 1t.

Undoubtedly the opponents of the
