A move by Senator Walker to indefinitely post- pone the bill of Rep. James V. Davis requiring the Territorial Department of Health to pay for medical exam- inaticns was defeated four to four. Walker then found support for an amendment to allow the person tak- the examination to choose his own doctor rather than have the De- partment designate one. Opposing the bill and the Health Department generally, Senator Cochran said: “I find that the air’s full of Department of Health em- ployees, flying all over the Terri- tory. T don't see why they can’ make examinations themselve: The bill was finally continued in second reading. Rep. ILeo Rogge's bill to require citizenship of all applicants to-prac- tice medicine was sent back to the Judiciary Committee for redraft- ing after Senators Sullivan, Cof- fey and Roden contended that as written and passed by the House the bill would repeal all the rest of the section dealing with exami- ing medical practioners. Declaring that the rest of the |law would “go by the board” if | the bill was adopted as drawn, Roden said the Judiciary Commit- tee would rewrite the bill proper- {1y “in 2 line and a hall.” Liguer Bills Two bills amending the local op- tion law were introduced today, one iin the Senate by Cochran and one lin the House by Rep.
