A—4 NEW POWER GROUP MEASURE SIGNED Hoover to Send Senate Five Names for Early Con- firmation. * A new plan is about to be made for the administration of the countrys water power resources. President Hoo- ver yesterday signed the Parker bill to reorganize the commission, under which the Federal Power Commission, consist- ing of the Secretaries of War, Interior and Agriculture, will be discarded. Five members will serve on the independent Federal Power Commission and the President is expected to name these persons in time for the Senate to act upon the confirmations prior to ad- Journment. If three members have assumed their posts the new commission is to begin functioning July 1. President Hoover has submitted to Congress a request for $111,920 to cover increased expenses for the coming fiscal year. The reorganization was proposed by President Hoover in his recommenda- tions to Congress. He was supported by Secretaries Wilbur, Hyde and Hur- ley. They maintained that the business of the group had grown to such pro- portions that they were unable to give it proper attention along with their other duties. The Federal Power Commission was | set up by Congress in 1920 and was charged with general administrative control over all power sites on navi- gable waters. Public lands and Federal reservations, as well as supervision over interstate power business. Under the act, the Government can take over the projects at-the end of 50 vears of operation. The commis- sion also was charged with determi- ning the value of the lahds and works. | Failure of the present organization to keep up this work was one of the im- portant reasons for the Chief Execu- tive's recommendation for reorganiza- tion. Under the new act, the President is authorized to assign officers of the Army Engineeripg Corps and officials of the Agriculture and Interior Depart- ments to duty under the new bi-par- tisan commission.

DOCTORHITS STATE MEDCALPRACTICE Local Physician, New Asso-: ciation President, Talks | on Paternalism. Special Dispatch to The Ster. DETROIT, June 25—A vigorous warning against the inroads of State paternalism in medicine was sounded by Dr. William Gerry Morgan of Washing- ton, incoming president, in his in- | augural address before the American | Medical Association here last night. ‘There is a:world-wide trend sooner or later bound to strike the United States, he said, for compulsory sickness insur- ance administered by the Government with the physician reduced to the status of a State employe responsible for a stated number of persons. ‘This system, he declared, has received the approval of the “super-paternalistic League of Nations” and since' the be- other by Austria, Hungary, Norway, Serbia, Great Britain, Rumania, Rus- sia, Bulgaria, Czechoslovakia, Portugal, Poland, Japan, Greece, Chile, Lithuania Originally, he said, it was a crafty device of Prince Bismarck, Who was alarmed at the accumulation of funds in the hands of the voluntary insur- ance organizations of the German labor | unions, which, he felt, might finance | activities against the state. So he pro- ceeded to turn these funds 1o the state itself and bind the workers more strong- | state represented. Physician Does Paper Work. ‘Wherever it has been adopted, he pointed out, the physician who has ac- cepted service in the State insurance organization has lost his individuality, spends much of his time in “paper rather than studying sickness, sees from 90 to 100 patients a day, is bound by strict regulations promulgated by the insurance. companies, and be~ comes a mere cog in the wheel. His opposition to_paternalistic medi- cine, Dr. Morgan sald, is not concerned with the economic weifare of the medi- cal profession, but with public health. It results, he insisted. in less efficient | service, in manipulation by unscrupu- lous lawyers, and in benefits for | “wastrels and maligners,” while honest | workers pay the bills and get little benefit. | Admitting that the cost of medical care was increasing, Dr. Morgan said that the medical profession as a whole | bears little of the responsibility for this. | Doctors® bills amount to only about & | quarter of the annual bill for sickness. | ““The public must see,” he sald, “that | the doctor is not the Shylock some would have us believe he is. If the | 25 per cent of the annual sickness bill which comes into the coffers of the ! doctors were entered in a column op- | posite what is annually spent by doctors | § in free service in clinics, hospitals and homes, a balance sheet certainly would | not leave the profession as a whole in debt to the public. Removes Careful Study. “We are not willing,” he continued, “to see the entire population, with the | exception of the rich, taken away from the Individual physician, whether he be family doctor or specialist, and turned over to the salarled doctor, who, | by virtue of the circumstances under which he must render his service, will not be able to devote to the individual patient the careful study that may be required. ve in mind the interest of the sick and not the bank account of the doctor. | “The list is long, and steadily grow- ing_longer, of medical, quasi-medical which have for their object oversight directed toward the physical, mental, moral or emotional life of parents or their chil- dren. After looking over the list one is constrained to ask what has come over our people that makes such over- sight necessary or possible.” b 5 s !

Curry, 19 years old, of Tampa. Fla, was arrested by head- quarters detectives in the lobby of the Powhattan Hotel today and booked on a technical charge of investigation for questioning in connection with a series of hotel burglaries here during the past few weeks. Curry was taken into custody by De- tectives James A. Springman and Michael Dowd after he had been identi- fied by two young women as the man they saw ransacking their room when they awoke at 7:30 o'clock this morning. The detectives said Curry was sit- ting in the lobby of the hotel when the two women, Mabel O. Anderson of Duluth, Minn,, and Mary B. Lewis of Moose Lake, identified him as the prowler they had seen in their room. ‘Wait Until He Leaves. They told the officers they were awakened by the sound of some one creeping stealthily around their room and looked up to see a man ransack- ing the bureau. The jntruder appar- ently did not know he had been dis- covered, they sald, and went quietly about his work. Realizing that it might be dangerous to cry out, they waited until the man left the room and then telephoned the clerk’'s desk. The man was next seen by Grafton Alexander, a bellboy, who said he in- terrupted him in the act of trying to force the lock of an adjoining room. The man fled down the corridor and, police said, hid himself until the bell- boy had gone. Purses Are Rified. A pocketbook was recovered in the hallway and identified by Miss Ander- son as the one stolen from her room. Approximately $8 in cash and a wrist watch were missing. Miss Lewis’ purse had been rified and left behind. When police took Curry into custody he had about $10 in his pockets. The officers said they also found an auto- matic pistol in his automobile. Curry registered as a guest at the hotel last night and obtained a rcom | on_ the fourth floor. While he is being | held at the first precinct station house police are investigating & number of | robberies committed recently in other hotels.

I am a very ill man at the present time and I cannot prepare what I wanted to say, even if it were in order for me to_do so. “I suggest, therefore, that you omit the short address which I did give as it had nothing to do with the present inquiry.” _The 86-yeag-old scientist is suffering 8 severe attack of heart disease.

Camp- | bell, director of regulatory practices of the food and drug administration, read to the committee reports purporting to show that Dr. Rusby had performed acts similar to those he now criticises his successors for doing. Dr. Rusby is one of the principal wit- nesses against the administration in the charges brought by Howard Am- bruster, New York drug importer, alleg- ing laxity by Federal inspectors' in per- mitting importation of substandard ergot, a drug widely used by ob- stetricians. Claims Pressure From Above. His request to be heard being grant- ed by Chairman McNary, Dr. Rusby admitted having permitted the impor- tation of ergot, which he felt to be »:lht for medicinal purposes, but ex- ained that he was “forced to do so by_pressure from my superiors.” In reply to a question by Senator Copeland of New York, Dr. Rusby sald that Dr. Harvey Wiley was chief of the Bureau of Chemistry of the Depart- ment of Agriculture at that time, but, he hastened to add, that the “pressure” came not from Dr. Wiley, but “higher up.” Dr. Rusby was & pharmacogno- sist of the department 20 years ago. “There was a combination of import- ers fighting the new drug laws” Dr. Rusby said, “and they put pressure on the department. I had to submit to the will of my superiors.” Dr. Rusby has been revealed as one of the “advisers” to Senator Wheeler, Democrat, of Montana, in connection with an icle by the Senator in Plain Talk, a magazine, criticizing the Food and Drug Administration. Mrs. Harvey W. Wiley, wife of the author of the pure food and drug law, has explained to the committee that her husband’s criticism of the adminis- tration of the act had not been directed | at the liuzslk)n now under inquiry. In doing so, she made public a letter written to Chairman McNary by the 86-year-old scientist shortly after his appearance before the group. Claims Misapprehension. The letter read: “Dear Senator McNary: “I went to your committee room on Tuesday, June 3, under a misapprehen- sion.
