Pep Promulgated
At Legion Meeting
At the regular bi-monthly meeting
of the local post of the American Le- j less now than they were during the
Eight local doctors who protested
against the contract between the State
Industrial Accident Commission and
the Doctors Mount of this city for
medical service to two local paper
mills, did not appear at the hearing
which was held by the commission at
2 o'clock Thursday afternoon.
The doctors two weeks ago entered
a protest against the contract system
and asked that a hearing be held. The
commission set the date fo rthe hear
ing and the doctors, last Wednesday,
directed a letter to the commission
asking that the hearing be called off.
as they believed that evidence would
not be heard with an impartial mind
on the part of the commissioners.
SYSTEM SCORED
The complaint of the doctors, who
are Ross Eaton, M.C. Strickland, W.
E. Hempstead, W. H. Meisner. A. H.
Huycke, C. A. Stuart, O. A. Welsh and
G.' E. Stuart, is based upon' the tact
that about a year ago the' commission
changed from the elective fee system
to a contract system. Under the old
method, any employee injured in tho
mills could go to any doctor in the city
he choose, and receive the benefits of
the state industrial protection, and
the commission would pay the doc
tor's fee. Bcause, according to the
commission, the local doctors, with
the exception of the Mounts, failed to
cooperate along certain requested
lines, the method was changed and
the Mounts paid a flat salary for do
ing all of the medical work, attendant
upon injuries to the employees in the
mills.
In protesting against the holding of
the hearing, the doctors stated that
they did not feel that the commission
would reverse is own action, and thai
no employees of the mills could tes
tify without .fear of losing their posi
tions, due to the fact that the "em
ployers have caused a feeling to grow
up that if any of their employees appear-in
opposition to the present sys
tem they will lose their positions in
the mills."
MEN NOT COERCED
This latter allegation was denied by j
W. P. Hawley, representing the Haw- j
ley Pulp and Paper company and A.
Banlsus, of the Crown-Willamette pa
per company, who attended the hear
ing, at which the matter was informal
ly discussd. Will T. Kirk and Wil
liam A. Marshall, members of the com
mission were present to hear any pro
tests against the rresent system.
None, however, as the protesting doc
tors were not present, were made.
Mr. Kirk stated that he belived that
the contract system resulted iu tut
saving of money and that it had work
ed far more satisfactorily than the fee
system, due to the fact that he had
found the other doctors In the city un
willing to cooperate with the nurse
who had been installed in the Crown
Willamette Mill-
W. P. Hawley pointed out that the
number of accidents in the mills were
and above board, and they will con
tinue to be so. The Commission is con
cerned in two things, namely, in pro
viding the best possible service for
men who are injured wane under the
protection of the Workmens' Compe;i-f--ation
Law, and in holding down fhe
cost of such service to a reasonable
basis.

ing M. D.s the commission issued a
statement covering the points in ques
tion, in which they said:
"Several days ago a delegation of
Oregon City physicians, accompanied
by their attorney, Philip Hammond,
called upon the Industrial Accident
Commission, relative to the present ar
rangement for providing medical and
surgical care for the employes of the
two paper mills located here. They
protested against the arrangement and
asked for a hearing upon the matter.
This request was promptly granted,,
and the date for the hearing was set
for two o'clock Thursday.
NO COMPLAINT MADE
"Members of the Commission and
the employers were on nand at that
hour, ready to hear any complaints nr
suggestions anyone concerned in the
matter had to offer. But tne doctors
who asked for the' hearing did not
appear, and it has been suggested that
the doctors would like to presenttheir
protests to the Commission privately
and not at a public hearing.
"So far as. the Commission, is con
cerned, there is nothing under cover
about this entire matter. All actions
of the Commission have been open

GET0UTANDGET UNDER
Water in Carburetor.
One of the causes of an engine
missing explosion, which is some
times very mysterious, is water in the
carburetor. If you have tried all other
causes of skipping, try draining the
carburetor. If some of the drainage is
caught in the hand, the water will be
repelled by the gasorlne and be collect
ed in globules.
Carburetor Adjustments.
A great many car owners make thi-.
mistake of adjusting the carburetor
when the engine is cool. ;Now it is
always best to make adjustments to
the motor after it has been run . long
enough to get thoroughly warmed
through, and this applies, equally to
the valve tappets, etc It is quite prob
able that Ihe cold motor may operate
very well on certain adjustments that
will not agree at all with the hot
engine.
When Metor Misses
If a motor persists in missing whej
only a light load is being carried, bo
fore resorting to adjustment of the
carburetor tc making spark gap a
little wider, presuming, of course, that
the magneto is being used. On the
other hand, if the motor misses when
there is .a heavy load on board, it may
possibly be- obviated by closing the
spark gap slightly.
