A survey showed today that 23 states, according to proclamations by governors, will observe Thanks giving Thursday, the 23rd, in aup port of President Roosevelt, and 20 will observe the traditional date of the last Thursday of the month. Five states Nebraska, Colorado, Texas, Idaho and New Mexico will observe both dates. But many cities in states which officially had designated the 23rd, planned to observe the traditional day for sentimental reasons. Other cities announced they would observe both dates and some families, un moved by tradition or proclama tions and mindful of economy, planned to have their turkey for dinner on Sunday, the 26th. The survey indicated that In states observing both dates, the traditional day was most popular. The lineup by states: Nov. 23 Illinois. Louisiana, Mississippi. Pennsylvania, Delaware, Ohio.

Ask your oniKKisL lor . A HOPELESS JOB By ,1. If. Willett Or th. Ca,IU1 Drut sior. Searching for facts to prove the gossip about great wealth accumulated by doctors of medi cine from the fees paid by pa tlenta, is a hopeless Job. Men have been known to secure ample funds to enable them to live in luxury the balance of their lives, by salvaging a rock wrecked ship hulk. Neither long experience nor substantial invest ment were necessary to gain that life of ease. Medical doctors salvage many humans wrecked and wracked by disease. We hear of such cases, experience them, and go compla cently about our affairs without a thought as to whether or not the doctor receives his rightful due of salvage money, as does the ship salvager. Are there those, who can, but have not, paid for the salvaging of their own broken health or that of some member of their family? There are. That's the principal reason why the average Income of medi cal doctors throughout the coun try parallels that of a trainman. Thi, I, the snih ot a jirtji of Editor In! Alvfrtlnnfnlg uppearln, in Th.
