HOLIAND 15 WIL ASBLACK LANDS Baltimore Man Is Given Plau- dits for Trip to Orient and Back. By Cable to The Star and the h Ameri caa N per Al AMSTERDAM, Holland, July 23.— Has the whole world gone mad? Did the flying of the Atlantic by a lone gallant lad less than two months ago upset the equilibrium of every coun- try on the globe? Every one Knows what Col. Charles A.

Ten thousand people gathered at the fiying fleld and if there were any in Amsterdam who did not see Mr. Black and the pilots as they rode in an open car to and through the town, the pilots wearing huge wreaths of laurel, t is hard to understand where the: could have been hid. In spite of thi wever, throngs stood about the en trance to the Amstol Hotel for two | hours after the party had alighted | and waited to get one more glimpse when they rode off at 8 o'clock to Hotel L’'Europe where a banquet was given in their honor tonight by the committee for the promotion of com- mercial aviation and the Royal Dutch Air Lines. At this banquet Gen. Snyders, commander in chief of the army and navy, presided. The American Minister, Richard M. Tobin, the Minister for Colonies and other dignitaries were present. Dur- ing the dinner a telegram from the Prince Consort was read congratulat- ing Mr. Biack, the pilots and mechanic upon the successful completion of the flight and the proof it offered that such travel is practical. Every Step Chronicled. The public here has been prepared lor several days for the return of the vers, for not only had every step of their way to the East been chronicled in the newspapers, bu® also every move on the way back. In the front window of the city office of the Dutch Air Lines was a map on which each day's progress was indicated and knots of people gathered daily before this. Today it was known that the party had flown yesterday from Con- tantinople to Nufemburg, having :nade a brief halt at Budapest for 2il and petrol, and that the last leg of the long journey would be made today. For the reception here the air com- pany had perfected excellent prepara- tions. On the fiying field there had been built a wooden platform, and grom each side of this and extending fully half a mile there ran a wooden railing reinforced with barbed wire. Guests and those who took part in the reception program occupied the latform, while the crowds that came v motor, by excursion boat and on oot were restrained behind the wooden railings. When the airdrone workers as- bisted in trundling the machine up to place in front of the reception plat- Folm and the faces of the pilots could be clearly seen and Mr. Black just visible through the window of the cabin the cheers broke forth again. The party was led to the platform with “Mr. Black reluctant and em- rassed. The Burgomaster of Amsterdam resented them with silver medals. ‘hey were told of their remarkable chievement in going out to Batavia jand returning in five and a half weeks. The aviators were made ichevaliers of the Order of Orange and Nassau. ‘Covyright. 1027, in all countries by North Anierican’ Newsvaper Alliance.

SCHOLASTIC STANDARD TO RID CITY OF QUACKS, IS AIM OF PHYSICIANS (Continued from First Page.) give cours comparable to those given by medical schools. As a re- sult, the leading osteonaths and the graduates of these recognized colleges (in Washington they are members of the Assoclation of Osteopathic Physicians of the District of Colum- bia, Inc.) have allied themselves with the medical doctors in seeking reme- dial legislation concerning the prac- tice of medicine and healing in the District of Columbia. On the other hand, the medical pro- fession still doubts the theory of chiropractic. The doctors of chiro- practic are inclined to lay this to professional jealousy. The doctors of medicine contend, on the other hand, that thelr study of the human sys- tem prevents them from adopting the theory of chiropractic. This is neither here nor there, for it does not enter into the problem faced in Washington. Both the M. D.'s and the chiropractors may be right, and they both may be wrong. Headway Is Made. ‘The chiropractors, despite the op- position from the medical profession, have made considerable headway. Most of all, they have sought to win legal recognition of their schools of healing as separate and distinct from the theory of medicine. The difficulty complicating the whole situation, however, has been the “diploma mill” production of drugless physicians. High stand- ards of the medical profession have served only to protect the pub- lic from quacks using the title of M. D. Any other degree is easily obtained. The holder thereof is en- titled to practice ‘without question in some of the States and in the Dis- trict of Columbla. As a matter of fact, a degree or diploma is not neces- sary in the District. One may con- fer upon himself the title of doctor of chiropractic or doctor of ostcop- athy and immediately set about prac- ticing on the human body. He vio- lates no law in so doing. So, while the condition in the Dis- trict is worse than it was before the passage of the medical practice act in 1898, when a lot of quacks were run out of town, there are dif- ferences of opinion, and very marked differences thev are, about how to remedy it. The quacks, of course. want no restrictive legislation. The doctors of chiropractic who are grad- uates of their best schools want a separate board of chiropractic to pass upon their qualifications to practice. d of Examiners Favored. Doctors of osteopathy who are graduates of recognized schools are siding with the doctors of medicine in_asking for a board of examiners chich will set an equal standard for, all applicants for liconse to practice healing. Bona fide doctors of oste- opathy are as anxlous as anybody. if not more sn. to get rid of the quacks who call themselves doctors of osteonathy. The Medical Soclety of the District and members of the Osteopathic As- iation decided on a_measure last r which they urged Congress to pass. In the first place, the bill car- tled 2 new definition of what is meant by the practice of medicine. This | definition _states: “That * * ¢ ‘the practice of medi- cine’ shall mean to oven an office for such purpose, or to announce to the public or to any individual in any way a desire or willingness or readin2ss to treat any sick or afflicted person or persons, or to investigate or diagnose, or offer to Investigate or diagnose, any allment or disease of the mind or body, or any bodily Injury. or to sug- gest. recommend, prescribe or direct for the use of any person or persons any agency. whether material or not material, for the cure, relief, pallia- | tion or prevention of any allment or disease of the mind or body, or for the cure or relief of any bodily defect or injury, after having received, or with the intent of receiving therefor, either directly or indirectly, any bonus, gift or compensation.” The definition also restricts the use of the terms “doctor,” “professor.” “healer,” etc., to those engaged in the practice of medicine as above defined. Would Create Board. ‘The proposed measure would create a board of medical education and Ii- censure for the District of Columbia, to consist of six ‘‘practitioners of medicine” (practice of medicine being defined in the bill) and three others not engaged in the practice of medl- cine, and this board would pass on the eligibility of applicants for license to practice’ medicine. It would require of the candidates a four-year. high school course, at least two years of college work in blology, chemistry and | | professional college ‘of standing. The six “practitioners of medicine™ on the board would be drawn from the differ- ent schools of healing, and, theoret!- cally at least, would conist of repre. sentatives of the allopaths, homeo- physics, and four years' work In a | paths, eclectics, osteopaths, chiroprac- tors, etc. In support of this measure the doc- tors point out that it simply confines the practice of medicne in any form to those who have sufficiently acquired by study the knowledge believed nec- essary to diagnose and attempt to cure human iliness. It is frankly admitted that its pass.ge would throw out by far the majority of drugless healers now practicing in the District. But it would not prevent the practice of drugless healing. so long as the healer showed himself qualiied. In other words, it 1s contended that if the medi- cal doctor must prepare himself to meet certain standards in treating the human body, the drugless doctor should be required to meet similar standards. ‘The doctors of medicine point to the recent passage in the State of New York of a similar law, w ) creates one board of examine ich passes on the qualification of all applicants for license, There one standard ap- plies to all. Osteopaths Yield Point. The Association of Osteopathic Phy- siclans k the viewpoint that in agreeing’ with the medical-doctors on this measufe they were giving uj one of the furdamental points that they have emphasized throughout the his- tory of their profession—namely, the existence of a separate board of ex- » “iners, or a board of nsteopathic physicians, who would judge the nrt- ness of osteopaths to practice. They gave up this principle, it is explained, on the groand that the situation in the District is bad, and they want to get rid of the quacks who parade under the osteopathic banner. They were able to agree with the medical doctors because of their own efforts to raise to a standard which is equal to that set by the medical profession the edu- cational qualifications of their mem- bers. Whether or not they will main- tain this agreement before the next Congress remains to be decided. They may ask for their own board. This bill was amended to exclude chironractors, however, and the chiro- practors were successful in having a bill passed by the House during.the last session of Congress which failed of iction in the Senate. " This bill would set up a separate board of chiropractic examiners in the District. Its advocates are particu- larly anxious for Federal recognition of their profession, which would he gained by this bill's sage. Several of the States have passed somewhat similar measures. The board would consist of three chiropractors who would require applicants for licensss to have completed a three.vear course in a school of chirop.actic or to have heen engsged actively in the practice of chir.practic in the _.istrict for two years preceding passage of th act. Thus many of those now practicing chiropractic, hut without the educa- tional qualifications considered .neces- sary by the proposei board, would be licensed. Defined in Bill.

By the Associated Press. BOSTON, July 23.—The skies let |down a torrent today on heroes of the air and the assembled thousands who gathered to cheer their exploits {over the Atlantic and Paclfic. No city before had scen these conquerors to- gether and not since 1919 had Boston seen Its beloved Yankee Division, which marched today in their hoor. Fortunate for the first 24 hours of the celebration, which brought out unprecedented crowds, the welcome of the city and State came to an uncom- for e end soon after noon today. At that time Col.

Nothing in this act shall be so con- strued s to prevent cr in any way interfere with other systems of prac- tice of the treatment of disease as taught by any other school or sci- ence.” So, when the chiropractors were able to put their bill through the House, the Medical Soclety immedi- ately took the stand that, rather than see it pass, their own proposed law should be left to die in the legis- lative jam. Here there was some disagreement with the osteopaths. The osteopaths were anxious for the bill on which they had agreed with the medical doctors to get through, on the theory that it would remedy immediately the bad situation re- garding osteopathic fakers, and re- gardless of the fact that it exempted the chiropractors. The medical doctors are opposing the chiropractors’ bill. In the first place, it puts the Federal Govern- ment on record as recognizing a sci- ence which is not recognized by the medical profession. The doctors of medicine also contend that if separate boards are to be set up for each of the various healing cults found in the District the situation here will be worse confounded. ‘The chiropractors contend that theirs 1s a science upon which they are qualified to pass, and that they can practice what they choose. The doctors of medicine and the recognized osteopaths contend that the point of the whole matter is that a high standard should be set for any one who intends to treat the human body. And, meeting this stand- ard, one can practice what one pleases.

The book, dedicated “to human con sclence,” already has been sent to leading European journals and Col Garibaldi hopes that public opinion will force the French authoritics to allow him to return and wind up his affairs in Nice. “Then 1 expect to return to Cuba and engage in agriculture,” he said. “I shall be perfectly satisfied to leave politics behind in this delightful island.” “Because I refused to sign a false atement for the chief of the French police, declaring that I had been sent io Paris by Premier Mussolini to com: plicate Franco-Italian relations, I was made the victim of an unjust and name HAVANA, July 23.—Col.

Canyon. He wore a blue serge suit and sallor straw hat, while Mrs. Cool- idge was attractively attired in a flowered dress over which was a blue satin coat. She wore a becoming rose- colored picture hat Rode in Lumber Wagons. There were three lumber wagons waiting for the presidential party. In the first one, decorated with flags and drawn by a white horse and black horse, rode the President and Mrs. Coolidge and the McKelvies. In the second were the secret service men. The photographers and news- paper correspondents occupied the third wagon, which was generously floored with hay. Rather this was the formation at the start, op until the ‘riders” be- came assistants to the horses, and themselves had to get out, and help propel the lumber wagons. The President and Mrs. Coolidge took it all in good fun. Mrs. Coolidge had no end of fun looking on at the men struggling with the lumber wagons, She whooped as she looked down on the President puffing and grunting, but as the journey con- tinued and the pushing grew harder and the President’s face grew redder | she evidently became concerned and the remainder of the journey saw her more serfous. The top was finally reached much to the delight of the loud breathing and perspiring guests. No one of them, the President included, look- ed as neat and natty as when he stepped from the train at Mystic. Good Luncheon Waits. However, there was a good lunch- eon waiting at the McKelvie cottage, which is located in a setting of picturesque beauty amid the wild grandeur of one of the innermost recesses of the Black Hills. The gen- eral understanding is that this fish- ing trip was to provide the great American public with the pictures of President Coolidge engaged in his favorite sport. He had long denied this privilege. He refused to have himself photographed with rod and reel in the Adirondack Mountains last Summer and this Summer in the Black Hills. The demands of the news photographers became so in- sistent that he finally said if they were around this part of the country today, they might. get what they wanted in the way of fishing pic- tures, and have it over with once for all. The luncheon consisted of Black Hills trout and pigsfeet with home- made jelly, hot biscuits, followed by ,c;:nerous portion of homemade apple ple. Immediately afterward two expe- ditions were organized, one for fish, in which the President was the star actor, and the other for gold panuning, featuring Mrs. Coolidge. This some- what perturbed the photographers, they being undecided which group to devote their attention to. They followed the President first. He emerged from the cabin in a pair of rubber hip boots that he had pulled KRYPTOK Far and Near Invisible Bifocal Sold regularly With an established p office man.

Address on over his trousers. He clung to his sailor straw hat and did not remove his high stiff collar nor don a fisher- man's jacket. Then began the march to the bank of the little stream, where the President unconcernedly began his casting. He used a five-ounce rod and a spinner with a red feather. Worms? No. It was to be a picture for the Nation. Again and again the President threw his line, exhibiting a skill that would have delighted the most ardent purist follower of Ike Walton. But the water was very much roiled, and no strike resulted. Worms would have done the trick. Still the President would not succumb to the worms. He was loyal to his spinner, and the pic- ture men having had their fill of the rustic scene with the fishless Presi- dent as its centerpiece. Meantime Mrs. Coolidge, further along Slate Creek, with Mrs. Me- Kelvie for her guide and instructor, s busily panning for gold. She was er joined by the President, who was then urged to try his luck. As in the case of the fishing the gold panning was dutifully filmed by the photographers, who got far more than they expected. Mr. Coolidge always likes to give good measure, and by throwing in the gold panning he has made lifelong friends with the photographers, who returned to Mystie loudly singing his praises. Dislikes to Pose. Those who know the President will say that his pushing the lumber wagon was a much easier task than his subsequent facing the cameras while fishing and gold panning. He was never accustomed himself to this form of publicity, and it alway leaves him disturbed, almost irritated. How- ever, he recognizes the demand that exists for this sort of thing., and usually capitulates but only after much urging. The return trip down the mountain side was far easier than the ascent. The President with some of the secret service men and newspaper men and photographers walked back to the train. He took a short cut over a steep mountain. He had his hat and collar off, and carried his coat on his arm. Mrs. Coolidge re- turned to the station in a wagon over the road upon which so much difficulty was experienced din the morning. They both had a great day, accord- ing to their own admission. The Jjourney back through Rapid Conyon was without incident, thus ending a perfect day, all but the empty creel. 76, GOES 10 MILES DAILY.

THIRTY YACHTS OFF ON 331-MILE RAGE Weather Dims Hopes of Breaking 28-Hour Chicago- to-Mackinac Record. By the Associated Press. CHICAGO, July 23.—~Thirty yachts, equally divided in the cruising and racing classes, lifted thelr white salls to the breeze late today and stood out in the twentieth annual race from Chicago to Mackinac Island, a dis- tance of 331 miles. A moderate southwest wind and fair skies saw the record fleld of boats off to a good start. A forecast of unsettled weather for tomorrow, with rising temperature, gave the sailors little hope of breaking the 28- hour record for the cruise established 15 _years ago. The big Dorello, first to finish last year but loser under time allowance by a scant 10 seconds to Intrepid. was back agaln this year. “R" class boats of as small as those of flve tons were accepted in the race today for the first time, and a cup. similar to the Woodruff trophy in competition for 20 years, was offered by Commodore George Woodruff. ‘While the salling fleet was vanish- ing in the distance, 16 power yachts were tuning up for their start over the same course at midnight. The power boats will lay over at Portage Point, about half way to Mackinac, for a day before resuming the run.
