"The American Medical asso ciation has decided that the plan proposed by the Hoover commis sion for a united medical organi zation is impractical of applica tion and will prove more costly." Dillard said. "In return for this support of the viewpoint of vet erans' organizations."

So she talked him into carry ing out a suicide pact with her on a lonely country road. A woodcutter discovered the bodies of Tully, 39, a convicted rapist, and his wife Margaret, 43, yesterday, locked in final em brace in their sealed auto. Used Carbon Monoxide They apparently died four days ago from carbon monoxide gas piped into the car through a hose running from the exhaust pipe to a rear window stuffed at the edges with rags. A New York neighbor of the Tullys revealed how his wife planned a double suicide after her husband violated a parole for rape by trying to rape the wife of a fellow-employee at Bellmore, N. Y.,-April 3. "We can't go on living like this," Mrs. Tully was quoted as having told a New York neigh bor after police sent out a 13 state alarm for her husband. Police charged he broke into the Belmore home of Mrs. Mar garet Bates, 24, and attempted to rape her. Mrs. Tully said it meant a "long stretch" for her husband, on parole from a one t6 50-year sentence for raping a 16-year-old California girl. He also had a record of four previous arrests on rape charges between 1931 and 1935. "He's not fit for the world, but I love him so much I can't live without him,"' Mrs. Tully told her neighbor, Mrs. Jean Gamier. "If I find him I'm going to talk him into ending our lives. It is better for us to die.' She left her apartment last Sunday, found her husband and drove with him to Pennsylvania.
