at the bottom. The bottom Of the tube
penetrates the roof Of Z room under
meath the generator and ends near beds
for cancer patients.
The bottom electrodes are either
gold or lead. The electric current
striking them produces million volt
x-rays. From the gold the x-rays come
of at q little slower rate than from
the lead. Gold passes the rays into the
human body at the rate Of 60 units per
minute; lead at 10.
Rays Are Filtered.
Before these rays reach a patient
they are filtered through four milli-
meters Of lead, four of copper and one
Of aluminium.
DR.. Richard Dresser of Boston, re-
ported the results on 26 persons with
cancer inside the abdominal cavity. He
found several advantages compared
with the 00,000-volt x-ray, the maxi
mum power in general USE
The million-volt rays were twice as
cool. This coolness is measured by
the erythema, or sunburn.of the skin.
The tendency Of 400, 900 volt rays to
burn the skin has been q barrier to
using enough Of them to reach internal
cancer most effectively.

The two men, dofhng their coats

over yesterday the Iowa primary elec-

feated Representative Wearin, whom
several administration advisers had
favored.
Their meeting provided a broad hint
to Iowa Democrats that the Presi-

Senaotr Gillette said Mr.. Roosevelt
congratulated him and predicted his
election over former. Senator L. J.
Dickinson, Republican.
They agreed. Senator Gillette

AROUSE DOCTORS
Burden on Profession Too
Great, They Say-Federa|
Funds Promised.
by the Associated Press.

Ry the Associated Press.
SAN FRANCISCO, June l3.-The
ohcial leaders Of American medicine
today broke the ice for possible con-
vention discussion of "sociali0ed'
system OF treating persons unable to
pay their doctor bills.
They conceded natly that the de-
mands of INDECENT and low-income
groups for free treatment had become
too great for the profession to bear
alone.
They acknowledged the problem had
forced collective thinking" toward
a solution and that 1t had given rise
to proposals that the need be met by
Federal funds.
In retiring from the presidency Of
the American Medical Association, DR.
]. H. J. Upham of Columbus, Ohio, said
the collective thinking forced on the
profession by the unending now of
depression" patients had awakened
the doctors to social and economic
questions.
$1,000,o0 Services Daily.
Assuming the presidency for 1898,
DR.. Irwin Abel Of Louisville, KY, told
the convention the country's 1000
physicians were donating probably
81 100000 worth Of services daily 10
INDECENT and low-income patients.
He said this was "a contribution not
equalled or exceeded by any agency
other than the Federal Government"
Both physicians joined in asserting
the burden was too much for the
medical profession.
On similar grounds a self-appointed
committee of 430 physicians several
months ago made public q declaration
the health Of the people was the di-
rect concern of the Government, and
that Federal funds should be used to
meet the demand for the treatment
Of the INDECENT and underprivileged.
No Definite Move.
The committee of 430 acted after
unsuccessful efforts had been made to
put proposals through the 1897 A. M.
A. convention relating to "socialized"
or tax-paid medicine.
Despite the opening left by the old
and new heads of the medical asso-
citation, some physicians who signed
the report Of the "430" said privately
they knew Of no definite move to put
the famous declaration before the
current convention.
In his farewell address DR.. Upham,
however, fired final shot by assert
ing groups or individuals within the
profession who acted on matters OF
medical policy or seized the oppor-
tunity to attract public notice" by ex-
pressing opinions outside the con-
ventional channels individually arro-
gate to themselves an authority and
Importance that cannot be conceded
by the rest Of the medical profession. F"

 Daily

Spend your noon hours out of doors, is the advice of Orwin w. Davis. physical director at the Y. Business and professional workers who are housed throughout the greater part of the day should take advantage of old-Sol. The Y roof centrally located is an ideal spot to get an hour of sunshine day with out losing too much time from busi- ness. The health-giving powers of sunlight have been sufficiently dem- onstrated in the last few years. It is very evident that it is a health factor which should be taken ad- vantage of by one and all.
 Fourteen years ago small group of men started the sum- bathing fad on the Y roof and the fad has spread so rapidly that there is now between one and two hundred sum- clan members a day, basking their bodies in the sun on the Y roof. Some of the original sun-clan who are still using the privileges are William Price. John Curtis, Morris Healey, William Curtis, Nick Del Russo, Joseph Kleinman, Albert Her. ron.
 Two large platforms are available on the roof for the patrons who de- sire to recline in quietness. A radio is also at their convenience to make sun bathing really deluxe. For the more active type of worshiper the Y roof offers, handball, quoits, horseshoes, deck tennis, medicine ball and other forms of minor sports with few sun chairs placed here and there on the roof is gives the appearance of an outdoor recreation center within the heart of the city. Yes, sir. its open season for exercises on the Y roof and many are going aloft for their sun tanning and ex- ercises this summer.

"Buck" Bagley Rides Again That Is-Maybe!

Sergt. Joseph Francis Xavier Aloysius Gust call me 6uck) Bag ley, one-time famed equestrian and member of Waterbury's mounted police, gnashed his teeth in disappointment when he was beaten to the punch today.
 Even while Sergt. Bagley Gall me Tex, if you like) was preparing to resume his hunt for a horse, owned by Martin Greenblatt, which ran away in Browns Mead ows last night, word came that the horse had been captured. The animal was caught in Oakville by Constable John Orsini.
 AS soon as the horse was report ed missing last night, Sergt. Bagley was called and went on the trail. Unable to get mount, he went on foot, and began track ing the missing horse. Using a flashlight, Buck got as far as the Oakville town line. Then it was time for him to report for duty at headquarters. All morning long he was making plans for re- stunning the hunt, only to have someone else find the horse.
 But all is not gloom TOT Tex. He was to be sent to Oakville this afternoon to bring back the horse, and this noon kind friends even gave him a saddle.
 But Sergt. Joe won't know until he gets to Oakville that what they gave him was a Side-Saddle.

Surveying the present situation which is highlighted by efforts of members of the national ad- ministration forces to disci- pline Connecticut's senior for not "stringing along 100 per cent for the New Deal, local, state and na- tional complications are to be con- sidered.
 Reports yesterday indicated the presence in Connecticut of U. s. Attorney General Homer s. Cum mings with a view of ascertaining sentiment. He has been in confer ence with National Committeeman David E. Fitzgerald, former mayor of New Haven.
 For LOnergan
 Last evening members of the Sal- isbury Democratic Town Committee went on record for the support of Senator Lonergan and repudiated a statement credited to Professor Charles P. Harrington of Kent, pres ident of the Litchfield County Dem- ocratic organization, who has gone on record as favoring the nomina- ton of Archibald McNeil of Bridge port, former national committeeman. It was also reported that some fifty postmasters in the Litchfield County voted to support Senator Lonergan and Congressman J.. Joseph Smith of Waterbury. At least one thing is certain in Litch- field County real, old-time battle looms.
 From Washington, D. C., comes word that Railway Labor Execu- tives Association is flashing the message to all parts of Connecticut "Reelect Lonergan". It claims a membership of 16,000. Ira N.
