have you?" for many years past. The entire rijrainarulc has al
ways appeared foolish to us, hut until now we have never heard
a clearly-defined public protest.
Perhaps the dear people are at last awaking to the folly of
it all. We hope so. r'nr, in spite of a very general impression
to the contrary, the newspapers have not been entirely respon
sible. , .ewspa ers do influence public opinion but they seldom
create it.
And if anyone dilits this they have only to follow this tree
silting business for a little while and be convinced.
papers in Florida and elsewhere have decitled to give it no
more publicity, but because public opinion is against it.
And without the support of public opinion these crazy stunts
collapse of their own weight. Try as they will, the American
league of tree sitters can't, and won't, carry on much longer.
1'licy may get newspaper support here and there, but their
dream of fame and fortune is over. The people will have none
of it. And when the people will hiivivnone of it the newspapers
sooner or later usually SOONHU fall in line.
Tree sitting essentially is 'no more ridiculous than a dancing
marathon or a cross-country bunion derby, or trying to set a
new record lor eating doughnuts, lint tree sitting just happened
to come in too late and happened to involve children, 11 CO.M

WK AHH just n little sorry for the tree sitters. As before
stated, they arc not to bbinie. .After seeing what other
stunters got away with, they Were undoubtedly , justified in try-
iiig to get u bit of easy money and publicity for themselves:
' They 'are in. something the siime boat as the man who
bought a corset factory ten years ago, or entered the. Xew York
stock market for the first time last October. . Nothing intrinsi
cally wrong countless others had done likewise. They merely
happened to do it at the WliOXti TIMK. The worm had turned
and they didn't know it. So their misfortune comes under the
rather cheerless heading of "just too bud."

,,M0RE UNADULTERATED WHANG-DOODLE
rT,llU'ilt!nr old Poi'tlniid Journal is niuking it vnliaut effort to
' di'illiiatize the .Meier independent race as a sort 'of "Onward
Christian Snldiers"'criisade. "'
J il this aiiiiising'iitleinpt to eojivert political ambition into 11
revival of religious fervor,' the Journal even denies thai the
leaders of the Joseph campaign are "bolters," or are largely
composed of defeated, polit ieians who see a good chance to gain
uj.i'laee'lit the pie tiounler, which was denied tlieiu by the voters
of their own parties.
i
A CCUK11NU to the Standard Uictionary, n bolter is a ineni-
ber of one party who leaves that party to join until her po
litieal organi.ation.
Just how thu Journal can successfully maintain the liepub
liun'n ami Deiuoernts who have left their respective parties to
join the Meier organi.iitiou do not conic under this definition,
it is difficult to perceive.
Nor is it clear how the fact that many of them are defeated
politicians can be denied. Among the original signers of the
Meier petition for example, are the following: '
A. Slaughter of Portland, defeated in the Republican pri
mary for the siate legislature Harry U tlross of Portland, de
font'ed for the same hotly at the same lime; James Miiguire, Paul

are quoting bits
of it for my spec
ial mortification,
or at least- a lot
of anonym oils
c o r r e spondents
seem to think so.
Here 111 todays mall I find a
copy of Bulletin No. 201, issued
by Citizens' .Medical Reference,
Inc., which quotes at length from
the funny book, particularly the.
view Spivak
gives of the legnl
regulation of tho practice of medi
cine In Alabama.
Alabama, it seems, has 2,500,
000 population, and 2284 physic
ians of these, 1004 are mcmborH
of the State Medical association.
Alabama law provides that the
state board of censors elected by
the State Medical association shall
bo the board of examiners for per-
sons seeking a license to practice
medicine. Tho board has entire
charge of preparing the examina
tions and passing upon the quali
fications of candidates. Tho ex
amination tho would-bo healer
must take includes chemistry,
anatomy, physiology, etlolo'g'yV
symptomatology, diagnosis, obrtot
rics, gyncology, surgery, hygiene,
medical Jurisprudence. Hpivak ap
parently looks upon this section
of tho law as a "Joker,"., and
thinks It unfairly discriminates
.against "drugless healers." );' 1
It seems to me 1 this ' Joker"
makes it difficult for nice old
ladles and barbers out ot work to
get a license to engage in pro
fessional healing and that Is a
wicked thing for tlio "medical
trust" to do. '
One wonders which branch of
study thc "druKlcm" healer deems
unnecessary to quality a physician
to lake the responsibilities lite
nubile gives tho healer. The old
protost of uneducated applicants
for a license was that thc state
examination included material
mcillca and therapeutics (subjects
dealing, with., drugs and chemicals
and their uses and effects such
as anesthetics, inntlsoptics, stimu
lants and the like). The would
be "drugless" healers argued, with
amut lode, that they were1 not
going to use such remedies, there
fore they should not be required
to have reasonable knowledge of
the effects of drugs, chemicals,
poisons, etc. As a matter of fact
few of the present hordo of unli
censed "drugless" healers ndhcro
to that pleasant little fable: they
all res-ort to drugs, chemicals,
medicines, pharmaceuticals, nos
trums, more or less, rcudljy as
suming a knowledge they do not
possess. In order to hold certain of
their wiseucre palrons. I' or in
real '.life the writers, orators and
practicing charlatans! who uis most
.scornful and contemptuous lowaiu
"nills and potions" submit very
meekly and earnestly to any drugs
the doctor nloascB to presenile
when they find themselves seri
ously illl nuy. they demand medi
cine even when the doctor of
course u regular physician feels
diffident about giving it to a pa.
tlent so prejudiced against It.
These . bitter. Impassioned utter
ances against f'pills and potions"
are fur publication only. The un
wise like such stuff.
Spivak dwells on tho fact that
tho Stale Medical association Is
given absolute control of tlio regu
lation of tlio practice of medicine.
Are doctors less trustworthy than
lawyers? When will Mr. Spivak
issue, a book condemning the "law
trust" on tho glounrt thai the
state liar association ! Is given

admittance to tho bar?
