LAW IN THE NEWS
BY PHIL YEAGER and
JOHN STARK

A good example of the legal
requirements which go with the
administration of medicine is
apparent in the current hasSle
going on between the State Of
Maryland and its Homeopathic
Medicine Society.
Questions have arisen as to
the propriety of some of the
homeopathic licensing practices
in Maryland, the State attorney
general charging that in certain
instances unqualified persons are
being examined.
But this kind of thing can cut
both ways.
That is, medical examining
boards can be too easy-goifig-
as is alleged in Maryland-or
they can get too tough.
Critics License Revoked
An unusual incident of the
latter is reported from Nevada
where the board of medical ex-
aminers recently revoked the
license of a local physician for
making extreme statements
about some of his fellow prac-
titionerS.
The Nevada case involved a
doctor who singled out three COL
leagues for harsh criticism. One,
he said, was the town drunk and
had no business practicing medi-
cine. The second, a woman doc
tor, he referred to as a midwife
who "butchered" her patients,
The third. he declared, was just

Medical Licensing Issue
Is Raised in Maryland

dumb and incapable Of han
ding medical work"
For these com m ents the
doctor in question was given the
heave-ho by the State medical
board which felt that such con-
duct was unbecoming a physi-
clan and that it might cause
patients of the three castigated
doctors to lose confidence in
their treatment.
The ousted physician. how
ever, took his case to court and
won reinstatement.
Police Power Sets Limit
The legal problems in such
instances is usually whether the
licensing action complained of
is in accord with the police
power of the State to protect
the public health and safety.
In the Nevada case the court
said the accused doctors acts
had not been detrimental to the
public and the board therefore
had no authority to disenfran-
chise him. THE common sense
and sound judgment of the
public in reacting to unre-
strained and unwarranted criti-
cism of other doctors is a far
better protection than barring
him from practice"
Of course, the Maryland and
Nevada cases are not generally
similar, but they illustrate some
of the limitations within which
licensing bodies must operate.
The next article in this series will
oppeor Friday.

Social Security News

Monthly payments of more than
$4,000 to 1850 widowed mothers
and minor children account for
IA per cent of the total monthly
old-age and survivors insurance
benefits of $4,000 in Delaware
as of December 1855, according to
Myron Milbouer, Social Security
Administration district manager in
Wilmington.
In making this announcement
today, Milbouer said that many
persons think of the old-age and
survivors insurance program as
providing protection only for older
men and women. He made it clear
that it is also a program benefiting
youngsters. At the end of 1855,
nationwide, about 1,275,000 chill
dren under age 18 were receiving
monthly benefit payments under
the social security law. OF these.
100000 were being paid monthly
DEFENDANTS benefits because of the
retirement of an aged parent; the
others were receiving survivors
benefits as children of deceased
parent. Milbouer pointed out that
about four times as many orphaned
children are receiving benefits un-
der the old-age and survivors in
surance program as are being
helped under the Federal State
program for aid to dependent chill
dren. Nation wide, almost 100000
mothers of children under age IS
were receiving monthly survivors
insurance benefits under social Sc
curity at the end of 1856.
AS a further illustration of the
protection Federal survivors in
surance now provides for the young
people of the country, mothers and
children in 8 out of 10 American
families can receive monthly sur
vivors insurance benefits, if death
should take the family bread
winner. More than half of all
young children in the Continental
United States whose fathers have
died were receiving social security
benefits at the end of 1855.
Milford chronicle., 1956-06-15

In all, 1880 people in Delaware
were getting $4,000 each month
in old-age and survivors insurance
benefits at the end of 1855. This
was an increase of 16 per cent
over the number of beneficiaries at
the end of 1854.
Aged people accounted for the
greatest number in Delaware's in
creased Beneficiary total, he said.
At the end of last year, 10000 re-
tired workers were getting more
than S655,00O monthly; $500 wives
and dependent husbands were re-
ceiving $4,000 monthly; 1900 aged
widows, widowers and parents were
also receiving $4,000 monthly as
survivors of deceased insured wor-
kers.
with the bringing in of many
groups of employed and self
employed persons previously ex-
cluded, the old-age and survivors
insurance program achieved almost
universal coverage at the begin
ming of 1885," Milbouer said. He
pointed out that an estimated 6S
million persons had taxable earn
ings under the program in calen-
dar year 1856. Some 20 million
workers were insured as the year
came to an end. OF this number
80 million are permanently insured
and can qualify for oldage benefits
at age 65, REGARDLESS of future en-
ployment; likewise, in the event
of death, their survivors can quail
fly for monthly benefits, lumpsum
death payments, or both.
| When a worker retires or dies
he or his survivors are urged tC
visit, phone or write the socia
security Office for assistance il
making claim for benefits. "Ir
fact, Milbouer said, "the social Sc
curity office should be contacted
ID when a worker reaches age 65
regardless of retirement, (2l wheT
he reaches age 72. regardless o.
earnings, 60 when an insured
member in a family dies, and a
when worker becomes totally dis
abled for anv gainfnl employment

Army Worm Control
Measures Listed
CHICKEN FESTIVAL

Army worms have already been
found in Sussex County and in all
probability will be troublesome
again this year in such crops as
barley, wheat, rye, oats, pasture,
hay and corn.
County Agent William Henderson
urges farmers to carefully inspect
their fields each day to observe
whether this pest is present.
The worms, about / to 11a inch
es long, are of greenish brown col
or with stripes down their back.
They do most of their feeding at
night. and move from place to place
IN large numbers. Because of their
feeding mostly at night, the dam
age is often done before they are
noticed.
Several control measures may
be used They are:
1. Spray the crop to be protected
with a 25%o DDT emulsion using
21a quarts of the material in suffi-
cient water to cover an acre. The
amount of water will vary accord
.ng to the type of sprayer used. A
20-30 it. strip sprayed around the
field to be protected is often quite
effective in preventing the worms
from entering the field.
2. busting the field with a $50
pDT or a $50 Marlate dust using
35 to so lbs. per acre. Airplane
dusting has been effectively used
in the past.
8. Flowing a furrow around the
infested area will help reduce the
spread of worms, throwing the fur
row toward the worms, which
leaves the straight smooth side of
the furrOw as a barrier to their
progress.
4. Use of poison bait. A bait made
of 100 lbs. or bran or sawdust
mixed with pounds of Paris
Green with enough sweetened wa
ter added to make it crumbly, is
quite effective in killing many
worms. Spread the bait at the rate
of 80 to so lbs. per acre over the
infested area, preferably in the
late afternoon or evening.

worm control, call or write the Ex-
tension Service, Georgetown, Del

How To Pack
Fine China
AP Newsfeofurss

EP NewsfeofUrss
If you're worrying about packing
fine china and valuable glass when
you move, better make up yorr
mind that time and patience pay
off in the project. Well-qualified to
give advice on the subject is
Charles 5. Smith, a Philadelphia
expert on antique Wedgewood.
Smith, who has been packing his
own fine china pieces for a trip
to the New York Coliseum and the
International Antiques Exhibition
and Sale offers these tips:
1. Keep cartons small and pack
light. No matter how well china
and glass are padded with news
paper, weight increases pressure
on bottom pieces and chances OF
breakage are greater.
2. Be sure to pad the bottom OF
the carton with crushed newspa-
per. Eight double pages are min
Milford chronicle., 1956-06-15

imum for a two-foot square box.
Open the newspaper fully, then
crush.
3. Be extra careful to pack sides
of pieces so that they do not touch
or rub. Corrugated paper is the
bet for packing between objects. If
newspaper is used. be generous
with it.
A. Do not pack a carton until
it bulges. This causes rocking and
unevenness which may result in
damage.
5. The carton should be sturdy
and well-sealed at corners.
6. Finally, back plates on edge
with several folds of paper wrap
ped IN opposite directions under
each piece That way each plate
bears its own weight and is pro-
tectei on all edges.
Years ago Smith had $50 break
/ age loss because of careless pack
ing. 1t was an expensive lesson
then, but now he thinks it was
worth every penny he hasn't had
damaged piece since.

The certification is the only pos

a record of sucn information. And
most farmers fail to keep the tags.
