Doctor Group Protests
ANA Program, Urges
Health Conference
BY the Assoeiatsd Press

BALTIMORE, Feb. pa group
of doctor members of the Ameri-
can Medical Association, dissent
ing from the AMA's announced
plan to combat National health
insurance, has suggested the or
ganization formulate a new pro-
gram through a conference of pro-
fessional and lay representatives.
The proposal was made by DR..
Edwards A. Park, professor emeri-
tus Of pediatrics at Johns Hopkins
University here, in a letter to
Elmer L. Henderson, chairman of
the ANA Board of Trustees, and
DR.. Morris Fishbein, editor of the
ANA Journal.
Planning Body Proposed.
The letter asks that the ANA
call the proposed conference under
its own auspices, with a view to
forming joint planning commits
sion. This commission would Or
ganize and direct the necessary
studies and work out the details
OF the program.
The dissension appeared after
DR.. Fishbein recently announced
a 12-point National program call
ing for a $25-per-doctor assess
ment to fight compulsory health
insurance. A group of 148 doc
tors signed a protest to the plan
and forwarded 1t to the AMA's
top officers.
DR.. Park says the protest signers
now number 167. without solici-
tation."
Plan No Opposition Group.
In statement issued yesterday
with a copy of the letter, DR..
Park said the protest signers have
no intention of organizing an op-
position group within or outside
THE ANA.
Their only purpose is to save
the public and the medical pro-
fession from the deteriorating eff
fects Of National compulsory
medical insurance. which they be-
lieve to be inevitable under the
Wagner Murray -Dingell bill"
The letter adds that until the
associations proposals encompass
plan for the entire country
which can provide comprehensive
preventive and curative services
for persons of moderate income
as well as to the INDECENT, we
believe that the public will not
regard CDR. Fishbein's) 12-point
program as an adequate
alternative"

Parkes Bull Champion
For the, third time in a row, and
since the first annual Winter Fair,
Archie Parkes, Vaughn, took home
the Hereford grand championship
ribbon. He also consigned the re-
serve champion. AP Princeps 10th,
a bull that won at the International
show at Great Falls as well as at the
Midland Empire State fair at Bill
lings, was the champion here.
A. c. Bayers, Twin Bridges, and
Sim & Schock, Highwood, neither of
whom are strangers to the award
clerk, stepped up to receive the
grand and reserve champion female
Hereford ribbons.
To the get of RS Super Princeps
went the most coveted award of the
show, first place in "get of sire"
Second place went to Howard Bo-
dine, Bodine Herefords, on the get
of Tama Heritage; third to Bayers
on the get of Evan Mischief; fourth
to Armstrong ranch, Livingston, on
the get of Plus Blanchard 34th, and
fifth to Sim & Schock on the get of
SV Flashy Mixer 18th.
c. F. Stimson, Spring Hill ranch,
Belgrade, showed Blackcap B. of
Spring Hill to the Bonny Black bull
championship, with R. c. Peterson,
Charlo, in a close race for reserve
championship. w. J. Harrer, Green
Meadow ranch, Helena, stepped in to
cop both female Angus champion
ships. Get of sire award went to
Peterson.
A son of Harrer, with an Angus
steer bred at Green Meadow ranch,
won the open class steer show after
first winning the All division show
with the same steer. Nancy Hub
bard, Harrison, followed in a heav-
Ter class in the All division to take

MARCH SLIPPED into April with
all the smoothness of well-melted
butter, and with it brought large
crowds to fill the fairgrounds and
exhibit halls of the third annual
Winter Fair which was held at Boze-
man March 28-April 2.
Attendance was double OF triple
that of previous events. The fair
goers were doubly certain that the
third annual event was the best ever,
and spent three times as much time
telling Manager George Slime, Presi-
dent Howard Lewis and other fair
officials how they were enjoying the
entire show.
Livestock held the daytime feature
spotlight. One hundred eighty Here
fords alone were reported on the
grounds. Thirty head came out to
compete against each other in one
class alone. Forming a file almost a
half block long, this one class of
junior bull calves will be the name
sakes of thousands in years to come.
They very likely could not have been
bought for $500, 900 on show day;
many would not have been for sale
at any price.
Wide Range of Exhibits
But cattle, hogs and sheep were
not the only attractions. Machinery
row was crammed with dozens of
models in new trucks, automobiles,
tractors, combines, leaders, mowers,
rakes and other farm or ranch equip
ment.
At the armory in downtown Boze-
man the Montana wheat show held
the place of honor at one end of the
large hall. Around the sides and
down the middle of the building
there were new eye-catchers in
every booth, from an exhibit show
ing the educational and vocational
training devices for sightless people,
to a necklace valued at $25, 900.
Women's sewing, weaving and
handicraft, as well as oil paintings,
photographs and the like took up
much of the central display area.
For the evening crowds there was
an old-fashioned square dance exhi-
bition On Monday night of fair week
that drew an estimated 1000. Later
in the week it was a chuck wagon
dinner for all visitors, a banquet for
breed association representatives, a
smoker for visiting herdsmen and

diter, told the House Banking
Committee the Presidents request
for the authority lis predicated
on anticipation of new defense
efforts"
Mr.. Woods also testified:
/. The administration wants a
two-year extension of rent control
beyond March 81 because it does
not expect the housing shortage to
end before the two years are up.
2. 1t is asking for new powers
to fine and jail landlords who
"wilfully or flagrantly" violate rent
laws, because there is small
group of landlords who have no
regard for law and we feel the only
thing they will listen to is the
threat of criminal sanctions"
8. Rents have risen "shockingly'
on certain housing accommoda-
tions removed from controls by
Congress in the last two years.
Some of these rents. Mr.. Woods
said rose an average of 80 per cent.

Capt. Nicholas Biddle deserved
q better fate than the fortunes
Of war granted him-and he de-
serves to be better known. Mr..
Clark tells why in this colorful.
well-documented story Of the
brief. but brilliant career Of the
captain of the continental frigate
Randolph.
Capt. Biddle apparently was
well on the way to becoming as
famous an American naval hero
as John Paul Jones when death
cut him down in the midst Of
battle.
It is a story of the earliest days
Of the American Navy. When the
Revolution began young Biddle
was midshipman aboard Brit
ish warship. He resigned and Of
fered his services to the Conti-
mental Navy. His first command
was a row galley on patrol OF
Philadelphia. His second was the
brig Andrew Doria. with which
he first attracted attention of the
Continental Congress by a series
of daring captures of British ship
ping.
II some Of the command assign
