fingerprinfing Is Asked
OF All Who Buy Guns

The Commissioners asked Con-
gress late today to tighten existing
law regulating the sale of pistols and
reyolvers to require f1ngerprinting
of all persons seeking to buy such
weapons.
The present practice of requiring
a person seeking to purchase a gun
to state whether he had ever been
convicted of crime of violence and
to wait 48 hours until his statement
is checked is insufficient, the Com
miSslonerS said, because the appli-
cant may not give his real name or
the name under which he has been
previously convicted.
Under the present setup," the
Commissioners explained, sit is pos
sible for gangsters and mobsters In
this jurisdiction and elsewhere who
are not known to the police, to pur-
chase firearms"

Replying to criticism of the Amer
lean Medical Association for not de-
veloping a medical care plan for low
paid citizens. DR.. Olin West of Chi
cago, secretary and general manager
OF the association, testified in Dis
trict Court this afternoon that Or
ganiZed medicine had found it i'm
possible to develop any single plan
of medical care that would work
equally well all over the United
States.
DR.. West declared the only pur-
pose of the activities of the A. M. A
was to be helpful and to promote
the art and science of medicine for
the benefit of the public"

Society are on trial for their alleged
boycott against Group Health As

PENDANTS are charged with violation
of the Antitrust Act.
On direct examination by William
z. Leahy. defense counsel, DR.. West
testified the A. NJ. A. was not op-
posed to all group practice nor to
contract practice as such. But, he
emphasized, the A. M. A. has op-
posed the growth Of groups which
could not provide the medical service
they offered. The A. M. A., he said,
had a responsibility for protection
of the quality of medical service"
Couldn't Find Workable Plan.
THE A. NJ. A. has made deter
mined and persistent effort to pro-
duce a plan for low-income groups
all over the United States" he said,
but it has become apparent this
cannot be done. A plan which would
work in an industrial State like
Pennsylvania or New Jersey could
not possibly work in an agricultural
State like Mississippi.
mo single plan can be developed
to work equally well in every COM
munity.
The A. M. A. believes 1t to be the
right and duty of each local medical
society to take the lead and develop
its own plans. The A. M. A. has no
intention to dictate what each So
ciety shall or shall not do"
