EARLY APPROVAL
OF PUBLIC WORK
WASHINGTON, Aug. 19. (AP)
Mora than one-third of the $3,300,
000,000 public, worlu fund already has
been allotted and many additional
projects are to be approved soon In
the administration's efforts to pro
vide employment for tbe Jobless.
Allocations thus far aggregate 11,-
190,721,980, Secretary Ickes, the pub
lic works administrator, announced
today. He added that If the pres-1
ent rate ts maintained the entire i
fund would be exhausted In less !
than six months.
Moat of the projects approved have
been for government work but many
of those to be announced at an early
date are non-federal ones.
Federal projects were selected first,
Ickes said, because the machinery al
ready existed to get them underway
with a minimum of delay and "with
out opening . unprotected avenues
where funds might be misused."
"The function of the public works
administration la to get men back
work and thus restore purohas-
lng power as quickly as possible,"
he added, "thla Is being don wltb
the greatest expedition.
"The public work administration

"The men who go to work directly

IT IS HIGH TIME TO BEG
The laws regulating the practice of
medicine In various states or pro
vinces seem at first sight absurdly
heterogeneous.
but when you
consider the pet
ty annoyances
and Indignities
these trick laws
impose upon the
reputable doctor,
who seeks to
move from one
place to another,
and how little
they bother the
quacks who ride
circuit, you per
ceive that the chief purpose of these
laws Is graft and patronage. They
make a large number of soft Jobs
for the politicians to bestow upon
their friends. And the "fees"
acted from physicians .who seek
license to practice are Just so mucn
velvet.
In the first place, one may rea
sonably ask, where do all these can
didates for license to practice get
their degrees, If not from Institutions
sponsored or authorized by the state
to grant such degrees? And If the
state authorizes a college or unlver
stty to grant the degree of Doctor of
Medicine, Is It not a reflection
the honor of the college or university
granting the degree when the state
Insists on re-examining the graduate
to see whether he Is fit to have the
degree of Doctor of Medicine? Of
course this Isn't tbe reason for the
examination to which the physician is
subjected when he applies for his li
cense. GRAFT is the reason. He
must put down a hundred berries for
the boys to play with. It is a great
scheme for the politicians. The state
ought to be ashamed to countenance
it.
Another odd thing In reference to
the regulation of the practice ox
medicine Is that the public has abso
lutely no assurance, and Indeed the
state or province has no check what
ever on the capacity or the qualifi
cations of any doctor who chooses to
hold himself out aa a specialist or
a surgeon. Once the doctor has laid
down the hundred rlmoleons and
"passed" his examination, what the
hell do the boys on the board of
medical examiners or the educational
officers of the state care what line
of work he pleases to do? It's en
tirely up to the doctor himself to de
cide that,-and quite legally the mo
ment he receives his license he may
begin the practice of any specialty
he elects.1
If the state Is to continue this I
'farcical "licensing" of physicians, It
CHICAGO POLICE

their campaign to check the current

Captured with a small arsenal, Ar
thur R. Reese, 38, of Anoka, Minn.,
was questioned concerning the 45100,

concerning his association with

seems high time that the law should
fix some reasonable minimum stand
ard of qualification for the physician
and surgeon who would engage In
practice as a specialist. It la un
likely that our national medical or
ganization will ever take any vigor
ous steps to curb the specialism smt,
which has grown to outlandish pro
portions In recent years. Surely any
doctor who purposes to bold himself
out as a specialist should be required
to have at least 10 years of experi
ence in general practice before he Is
granted the privilege of posing as
specialist.

QUESTIONS AND ANSWERS.
Whitewash Is Disinfectant.
How can I make a whitewash wall
sanitary? The room waa used by
tubercular person for three months.
L. 8. P.
Answer The simplest way is to
whitewash the wall afresh. White
wash Is a good disinfectant. A white
painted wall may be washed with soap
and water. A papered wall may be
repapered. In any case, a wall not
obviously soiled, requires no disin
fection, for It ennot harbor or carry
Infection. Ordinary housecleaning of
such a room is ample protection for
subsequent occupants, no matter
what disease the previous occupant
had. Don't be silly about It. Plain
soap and water Is the best disinfect
ant for any floor, wall or other sur
face that may have been soiled by
any Infectious material. It Is not
necessary to raise a horrendous stink
Just to show the neighbors what
sanitary stickler you are. Tou merely
show your credulity and Ignorance
when you uncork a lot of strong
smells.
Insulin Injections.
Mother is diabetic but cant stand
the hypodermic Injections of Insulin.
Is there any possible way to take in
sulin by mouth? Q. R.
Answer No. A physician of skill
and experience can administer the in
jection practically painlessly and
teach the patient to do so herself.

l!
Pioneer Town Celebration
Brings Out Vehicles and
Dresses of Long vAgo
Yreka Joins in Celebration
Climaxing the afternoon's events
on the extensive program of the
Jacksonville Gold Rush Jubilee, the
parade in that little old town yes
terday brought vividly to thf minds
of the 1033 crowd how transport
tlon facilities have changed during
the past fifty years for covered
wagons, an ox, and a hackney
coach, were all included in the pro
cession down the gold mining cen
ter's main street.
The parade was lead by the Rogue
River Cowboys of Eagle Point, who
were all dressed In their western at
tire for the occasion. The Elks
band from Medford lodge, the mem
bers appearing In mining togs, fur
nished the music for the marching,
and close behind, with slow swing
ing stops came Nero, the only living
ox to have crossed the plains.
One wagon had a display of gold
mining, followed by another In
which rode a little boy and girl,
dressed as Indians.
A three-seated coach, In which
road several people dressed In the
styles of 1853, was Included in the
parade, as were several covered wag
ons.
Fred Tloe of Medford, the last
stage driver for tae Oregon-Califor
nia stages, accompanied by Mrs
Tlce, road along in an old-fashioned
coach, with costumes in keeping with
the occasion. In the back seat of
their horse-drawn vehicle rode Miss
Venlta Daley and Alonzo Daley,
fourth generation descendants of the
builders of the first grist mill in the
Rogue River valley.
A number of JacksonvlUlans,
well as a few Yrekans, who were In
the southern Oregon town to adver
tise their own gold rush celebration
next month, Joined the parade, and
their quaint costumes of bygone days
were attracting much comment.
Mrs. Lem Wilson, who last year
won the prize In the parade for her
faded blue taffeta dress "which was
made especially for me as my regu
lar Sunday dress in 1881," had her
picture taken by J. Verne Shangle,
as did Mrs. Mame Nelson and Wil
liam Flsk, and Mrs. Vivian Beach.
Frances Clark, 12, wore a deep pur
ple velvet Jacket which had belonged
to her great-grandmother, Mrs. Fan
nie Wilson, a Jacksonville pioneer.
She also had her photo taken.
John R. Knight, wearing a bril
liant orange silk shirt, and with a
revolver strapped to his side, paraded
me length of the street, with mega
phone in hand.
The day's activities marked the
second annual celebration of the dis
covery of gold by James Cluggage in
1852, in the town which soon be
came the metropolis of the area. Yes
terday that glamour returned with
the thousands of people from all
points in southern Oregon and north
ern California participating in the
numerous events planned by the
Jacksonville Chamber of Commerce.
A baseball game, which the Jack
sonville Miners dropped to Gold Hill
with a 2 to 1 score after an excit
ing battle, was followed by numer
ous contests, and the afternoon pro
gram opened with the rodeo, and a
series of contests.
