He said the measure was , worthy of serious consideration. Claims Physicians.:;. Want Monopoly ..- ;. . : 'Senator Staples attacked the -. bill on the grounds that It was another regulatory measure. The physicians of this state want closed corporation, said Staples, "and they are doing; eT- erythinf possible to thwart the ambitions of young men and wom en who desire to enter the inedi - cal field.

Two lobbyists are now In Salem In the interest of the "basic science' bill.; and I hare been adrlsed that . f 20,000 has been raised to pnt It over. It merely Is a case of physicians at tempting to. regulate persons out side of their profession. These physicians should clean their own skirts Oefore attempting to clean those of others. i "In case this bill is! approred the physicians of Oregon will hare a closed corporation which Is not desired by the public.
