T. MacEacn trn. M, D-, director of hospitals for the American college of sur geons. It meets every requirement of that institution. For some time has the local hos pital been on the list, although certain requirements demanded by the college had" not been compiled with. These deficiencies hare been p.,.Hiu) inl now It will be award ed a certificate from the surgical college. In his speech. Dr. MaeEahern told of the progress of hospitals as a whole oyer the entire jcoun- ' try. He brought out the! fact though that certain principles, common to all institutions should be followed and that now the hos nltala were confronted with the problem of standardization. To date 1400 hospitals from over the entire country have been accepted with some 300 placed upon probation, meaning that they were not up to the requirements of the college. It is only through closer cooperation, consultations. better records and laboratory ser vice that the stay of the patient and death rate have been material ly reduced. In his lecture he declared that no new doctor should be admitted to the hospital immediately, but to allow him to show his ability during the first' six mouths, and then if all goes well, make him a somber of the staff.

Fighting Heavy SHANGHAI. May" 9. ( API. The Japanese 28th brigade under I General Sotoyama bore the brunt I of fighting between the Japanese and nationalists forces today.; Gen eral Sotoyama's brigade came Into contact with a force with south erners at Kotien, about 15 miles east of Tsinan and disarmed many of them after stubborn resistance. Later In the day when 'Sotoy ama's forces were returning to Tsinan they encountered a power ful force under General Chen Tiao Yuan. Fighting was last reported still in progress with the result unknown. The Japanese were continuing today their attempts to disarm the nationalist as rapidly as they came in contact with them In the entire Tsinan area. The Mikado's forces had occupied the bridge across the Yellow river at Tsinan and other strategic points. ' Other Battle Light With the exception of the two encounters with Sotoyama's forces, most of the fighting was of a minor nature. Hawang Fu. nationalist fdreign minister, - today published j In Shanghai his version of the events leading to the hostilities at Tsl nan. He says that relations be tween the southerner . and the Japanese were most, friendly last Thursday morning and that- the Japanese were removing the bar ricades and shops were reopening. , He waa greatly surprised Thurs day night he said, returning from General Chiang Kai-Shek's headauarters to find there was shooting going on on all sides.

WSIfiESFI IE LEGISIH Editor Statesman: There are ten candidates for the republican nomination for the leg- ! islatnre from Marion county. Each one has his claims and good points. I want to urge the nomination of A. N. Moores. "Allie" Moores as he is known to his close friends, and generally in Maripn county. Is a man of high character and good ability. He is a fighter for what he believes to be right. And he has no delusions. He is apt to be right. He believes in sound business principles and economy in public affairs. He would serve his constituents well. I believe this is the time when "Allie" Moores should be chosen by the republicans to be placed on the ticket for the No vember election. A FRIEND.

ConunefrUl Street OF PAH PUIS Airplane patrol for detection of fire ln Umbered lands of the northwest will be contracted to commercial ; flying . concerns this year, for the first time In the njne years since the Inauguration of thia type of patrol, F. A. Elliott, atate forester, was informed yes terday In a telegram received from the district headquarters of the United States forest service in Portland. Tentative plans contemplate two planes in the Puget Sound dis trict, one at Portland and one at Wenatchee, Wash. The operations will not begin until July 1 for the reason that the federal appropria tlon does not become available until that time. Information received by State Forester Elliott indicated that the patrol would be usea in connec tion with the protection of nation al forest and adjacent lands. This will permit their use by the state and other cooperative agencies that patrol lands adjacent to the national forests. In areas that are not adjacent to the national for ests, state and private agencies cannot use the pianos at govern ment expense. In such cases prl vate agencies will be required to pay for the planes at the same rate as Is charged the federal gov ernment. Bids will be advertised for 30 days and it was predicted that a large number of airplane concerns would submit proposals. Tbe con tracts probably will be awarded early In June. Those desiring to contract the work will be required to bid or the cost per hour for the first 150 hours, the guaranteed minimum, for the next 50 hours above the guaranteed minimum, for the sec ond 50 hours above the guaranteed minimum, and for all time in ex cess of 250 hours.

On the other hand, the Hoover forces while admitting defeat, stressed the vote their candidate polled, and made the prediction that once the Hoosier delegates are released many of them will be found In the Hoover fold.
