HEALTH FIGHT.
PLANNED
Continued from Local Page)

Continued from Local Eage)
Representative Blanton invited
q group of Washington physicians
to q fist fight following a stormy
mass meeting yesterday in Cen
tral High School auditorium.
The fiery Texans challenge
went unanswered, but the meet
ing adopted a resolution urging
the District Commissioners to pc
tition for increased funds for pub
lie health activities in the Nations
Capital.
Charges Duties Sighted
Making an unexpected appear
ance at the meeting, Representa-
tive Blanton charged that phySi-
clans were making lack Of money
an excuse for failing to give better
medical service to the city. He
declared too many physicians on
municipal payrollS were giving too
much time to private practice and
not enough to public duties.
AS the meeting concluded, q
group Of physicians congregated
around the Texan, objecting to
his remarks. One Of the group,
DR.. w. H. Hough, declared:
81 have never heard q more
asinine statement in all my life."
AS the doctors continued to
press around him, Representative
Blanton withdrew a few PAGES
and shouted angrily:
Don't you fellows gang up
ON me. III take ON any one Of
you doctors, one at . time, il
you'll step back to rooms be-
hind this platform"
Rabbi Abram Simon of the
Washington Hebrew Congrega-
tion, who presided at the meet
ing, and the Rt. Rev. John
O'Grady, director Of Catholic
Charities, stepped in and Quilted
the disturbance.
BOOed Repeaedly
During his address, in which he
charged the District Medical So
ciety had insulted the President
by opposing Budget Bureau rec
concentrations, Mr.. Blanton was
booed repeatedly. He explained
that the Budget Bureau is the
agent of the President and speaks
for him.
Loud laughter greeted a decla-
ration by the Texan that "if you
leave things to Congress you'll
be taken care of but he drew ap-
plause when he declared 81 am
going to vote for items in this bill
that have not been approved by
the Bulge; Bureau.

END SUSPENSE,
PAPER URGES

MONTREAL, quebec. Dec. 4
IN.SO.-ExpresSing concern over
the breach between King Edward
VIII and his cabinet, arising out
of the king -emperor's romance
with Mrs. Wallis Simpson, the
Montreal Herald urged in a boxed
front page editorial yesterday that
the period of uncertainty be
brought to an end.
The Herald is the first paper in
Montreal to deal editorially with
the Simpson case, since the story
first appeared in a Canadian news
paper yesterday afternoon. 1t
failed. however, to mention Mrs.
Simpson by name. The article
said:
There has never been any
concrete evidence to support the
rumOrs of a royal marriage. But
there is now abundant teSti-
mOny to the existence of a
breach between the cabinet and
the King. Out of this breach
grave constitutional issues, in
vOlving peril to the whole en-
pire, have arisen.

By LESLIE GOULD

NEW YORK, Dec 4 GN.S).
This week will go down in Wall
Street history as the time when
love became a stock market fac
tor.
Wall Street has had to reckon
with bollweevills, droughtS, wars,
floods, hurricanes and elections,
but never before with romance.
And now that has been added
to the list, with the King OF Eng
lands desire to marry the Ameri-
can divorcee-Mrs. Wallis Simp-
son-precipitating a grave cabi-
net crisis.
The first response to this new
influence was a weakening OF
security prices. Calmer second
thought brought recovery.
The fact remains, however, that
if a serious cabinet crisis does
break in England over the Kings
romance it is bound to have further
repercussions in the stock mar

GUARDED

A burly guard escorted Ginger
Rogers. famous titian-haired film
star, wherever she went today
and her mother, Mrs. Leila Rog-
ers, also was being protected,
after threats to kidnap and kill
them.
The threats, in a note sent from
a nearby beach town, demanded
$4,000 or else Ginger would be
kidnapped and put to death, said
Mrs. Rogers, to whom the note
was addressed.
Federal investigators said they
believed the extortion plot was
the work of an amateur. Both
Ginger and her mother minimized
the incident, blaming a jokester
