DOCTORS- PROTEST
AdAINST PROPOSED
CONTRACT WITH CITY
City's Plan To Cliargo Employes
Stipulated Sum For Services
Declared To He Unfair
A protest against , the proposed
contract ' between the city and Drs.
E. D. Lamb, 11. D. L. Stewart and
T. C.., Campbell whereby they were
to furnish medical and hospital at
tendance to city employees for a
stipulated sum monthly, . was filed
with the council last night. The
three forgoing V doctors ', sign
ed the .protest. In addition to whosti
namos were those ot L. D. Gass.
Warren Hunt. Bernard J. Rea, Fred
R. Goddard, J. O. Patterson, A. A.
Soule, L. L. Truax, E. D.Johnson,
Geo. I. Wright and G.. A. Massey.
When questioned today two ot
the doctors named in the proposed
contract said the contract was drawn
by th0 city without their knowledge
and consent, and one said he knew
nothing of the matter until he read
ot it In the published report ot the
-councll meeting of . ft week ago.
The protest held that elty em
ployes are entitled to select their
own physicians, that the American
National Hospital association ot
Portland and other like organiza
tions should be barred from making
contracts with the city, and that It
would be unfair to olty employes to
take their money In advance and
deprive them ot the right or choice
ot their physician, 'an Inherent right
of any free artisan." It was sug
gested that It the city dosires medi
cal services and care for employes,
that they come under the stato com
pensation act, thus making tho ser
vlco open to all physicians alike.
It Is understood that because of
(he protest tho proposed -contract
will be dropped. .

Needs of State Set Forthi
By State Warden At

Sportsmen are carrying the; bur
den of fish and- game protection.
said Capt. A. E. Burghduff, .Stat
game warden, who with Commission -ers
Ben Dorris. Harold Clifford and'
R, W. Price, and M..X.. Ryckmam,'
state superintendent: of - butcheries;
was the guest of the Klamath Coun
ty Sportsmen association at a -banquet
at tho White Pelican hotel last,
night. ;.';..--. .
Unlike the last meeting here -with
Burghduff, the one tst night was o?
a social nature, the local sportsmen'
not laying their problems before the
state officials except . In a general"
way. Dr. E. D. Johnson presided and
short talks were made by T.'--A."
Stevenson, J. Frank Adams, the'
three commialsonert and Nate Ot"'
terbeln. ' : .v."'.'
Discussed Conservation
Burghdufft talk was on game
conservation amd methods used In
fish' propagation. Diamond lake, be'
said, was) undoubtedly, the greatest
rainbow .trout lak In the , United
States, while Rogue - river holds a
similar honor for streams. ) But lm-
provement of roads arid the' rapid
development of ; automobile trentf,
portatlon,. h.. declared, has. made -the
conservation problem a grave '
one. ' ' ' ? y y'. V ' '. . .:'.
-' Burghduff 'decried Ithe use of
pump-gun for bird shooting and the
high-powered .Title with - telescope
sight for big game, shooting. ,, He
predicted that In tlme these weapons '
would be prohibited. Canada, be
said," now Jlmits shotguns to two
shells. Oregon has a 70 day, deer
season while most adjoining states
It Is 30 dayt. The deer season In
Washington has been' Indefinitely
closed, east ot the Cascades due to
the depletion, of game.
'. Not Making Promises .iy
Price told the sportsmen that the
commission 'was not there to make
promises, but were trying to learn
the needs of the 'state to see what
plans will be made, and when- def
inite plans are made ihey will not
be for one year but for several years
He said that because of bis -experience
as a hotel man he viewed the
gama problem from the standpoint
of its effect on tourists, predicting
that with the construction of iood
roads Into the county the tourist
trafflo would Increase tremendous
ly. Klamath county, he declared,
is the last stand ot wild life in Ore
gon from which must be bujlt up
the game retourcet ot the rest of the
ttate. " ,: f j
Clifford, who It In the cattle butt
from the subject ot game to, remark
from the. tubleot og game to remsjrk

pared In quality to the oattle h'i taw i
along the road they must beyery
wonderful Indeed. : rW'itH ther con
stantly increasing tourist basinets,
said Clifford, It bat become a race
to hold the. game increase up . to
the necessary level. ' He promised
every aid to Klamath county within
hit power to help build up game' re
sources..,. ...... y r y , . J,-t ;
Would Not Iiol Capital .
Dorris, the- next ; speaker. . said
Klamath county teeme to feel, that
Its lakes and ttreamt are being fob
bed to benefit the rest . ot
the ttate. It would be . poor
business, he pointed cut, for the
commission to rob, Its capital to pay
dividends, and It was more to the
Interest of the game department to
build up game resources, without:
which the commission would be of
no further use. Dorris told of the
value ot egg-taking stations, laying
that became of the peculiar foM
