Blgre low, President, presiding, appointed the usual committees to carry out the details of the state meeting. Many sectional meetings were held during the day, consideration being given to the scientific subjects through discus aions started with the reading of pre. pared papers. Dr. Blgelow delivered his farewell address as President of the associa tion last night, in which he pointed out that the association had a well defined purpose of acquainting the public with Its health needs.

He said that a recent effort on the part of the state medical profession which In formed the public of the Initiated chiropractic bill was convincing proof that the medical profession has power to mould events. 'Capacity for self-discipline Is a fundamental requisite of any profes sion," said vr. Blgelow. "in propor tion as It loses its ability to main tain In its membership those standards aird ideals which are the expression of the best thoughts of Its best members, it loses the good will and esteem of the public and forfeits the right to demand respect and consideration." Dr. Blgelow asserted that the his- tory of medicine bears ample testl- OFF Jncorpcraftd be SmiiW? Kasson Ca 10 and 12 Xttet Jrurth Si.

"Our societies should be alert to detect the ulcer of a sordid com mercialism while yet It Is small and localized, and if it does not yield to the mild soothing- poultice and ad monttlon, the knife of repudiation must be applied," he continued. "May the surgeons who perform the repudl ation be sure of the cleanliness of their own hands, and may the critics who call attention to our stumbling brother take thought.

Discoveries Add Te Knowledge, 'Absorbed In Its program of re search work, of which we hear so much these days, and teniae with a passion to storm the citadel of ignor ance for the possible discovery of some new truth that may be of benefit to mankind, Is not too little thought given to the fact that while the results of such research may conceivably In some Instances be capable of mass application without the Intermediation of the doctor, for the most part these discoveries will but add to the knowledge of the doctor, and the public will reap the benefit of this research throuch the doctors it employs, or not at all?" Since the medical school exists for a dual purpose, to equip Its students with knowledge of the science and practice of medicine so that they may be safe and sane counsellors of the ick, and to initiate and foster medical research: it also Is necessary tnai training be given In both the human and the economic side of the practice of medicine the potentlalties of the oung graduates will be realized and that their knowledge and ability will not be atrophied from disuse, Dr.

Blgelow asserted. 'The proper study of mankind man. and man is not merely cuncu- tion of organs and he said. A young man may be superlatively trained In medicine and the whole thing go to naught because he has no knowledge of the social, economic, psychological and sentimental side of the practice of medicine. The medical school must expect its graduates to acquire patients and not only to maintain, but to strengthen their hold on the thinking public." New Course Suggested.

A course of instruction in medical economics was suggested by Dr. Blgelow as a means of eliminating many of the unpleasant contacts the young graduate must undergo. He also suggested a rearrangement of the medical school curriculum so that more emphasis on such subjects could be developed. "Some day we may hope that the medical school will be concerned over the larger percentages of the public who are running after strange and false gods, and will direct some of Its research energy Into a study of the psychology of approach by which the practitioners of these healing vagaries make their successful appeal," said Dr. Blgelow.

"If anyone chooses to construe this suggestion as a plea on part for the teaching of blatant advertising, unwarranted claima and cheap salesmanship, let him. No further words of mine will con vince him that what I mean Is that the young graduates In medicine must have some kind of drawbridge he can let down from himself Into the life about him for the free exit and dis play of the training he has received in the medical school. If he lacks as natural endowment this medleim hlch is essential for the activation of his knowledge wny snouiu nut his alma mater make a formal effort to develop It In him? Otherwise the time and effort spent on his education Is as surely wasted as If he died the day of graduation." History of Body Traced. Dr. Charles V.

Stone, Cleveland, in his Inaugural "address as President of the association traced tne niniory u. the Medical Association In Uhlo, ana said that It always had sought to Increase the standards and ideals of the profession and to protect the public from those who pley upon It. He said that the great educational need of the profession today was an adequate opportunity to keep closely in touch with the rapid strides being made In clinical medicine. "In thef protection of public health the profession has made conscientious nrienvnrs." said Dr. Stone.

"In the past two generations particularly active efforts have been made by our state medical organizations to provide more adequate health protection for school children: better care and educational advantages for crippled children: Improved aitd safe milk supply for Infants and adults: higher requirements for the purity of food sold the public; better care for the mentally sick, and better control of Infectious conditions through assistance In the establishment and support of a state department of health and Its subdivisions. "It is the composite opinion of this association that general contract medical services are immediate, and as such, are unfair to the beneficiaries who receive more or less perfunctory niellcal service instead of a real scientific service. Such Contract tervlces destroy one of the fundamentals of modern medicine by eliminates the intimate relations between physician and patient. It Is clearly recognized, however, that in Industry necessary medical and sugical service should be rendered to those who incur Injuries and diseases dependent upon the hazards of their employment.

Halpin Addresses Cincinnati has every possibility of becoming a great airplane raanufac turlng center because of its strategic geographical location, Thomas Halpin, builder of the all-metal mon oplane Flamingo, said yesterday In discussing the future of Cincinnati as an important cog in the aviation Industry, before the Norwood Manu facturers' Association. While Mr. Halpin was discussing the progress of Cincinnati as an aviation center, the stockholders of the Metal Aircraft Corporation of Cincinnati filed incorporation papers In Columbus.

The corporation is capitalized at more than, half a mil lion dollars. Mr. Halpin said that Cincinnati has prestige In the aviation Industry be cause of its airport and landing fields here, and also because the first air craft factory, the International Air craft Corporation, recently located here after manufacturing planes on the Pacific coast. "Geographically, Cincinnati is better situated than any other city be cause of its location near the center of population," said Mr. Halpin.

"It is within a few minutes' flight of McCook Field, the Government re search station near Dayton, Ohio, and this alone gives Cincinnati great strategic importance in case of war, not to mention the economic side. "I see no reason why Cincinnati should not become the country's cen ter of airplane manufacture.

Athletic Events To Be Sponsored For Teams Representing Force Employed on Terminal Project. Gathered from the four corners of the country, approximately 100 engineers engaged in drafting plans and designing Cincinnati's -new union last night organized the "Cutco" Club to become better acquainted.

The organization was effected following a dinner at Hotel Alms which was attended by heads of the various divisions and members of the engineering staff. The name is an abreviatlon for the Cincinnati Union Terminal Company. Because of the character of the work, only men trained in railroad engineering are employed and to obtain the required number, experts have been drafted from various cities of the United States, most of whom met each other for the first time in Cincinnati, A special committee of the club Is to be named which is to promote athletic events for the summer and winter. The membership includes a number of crack baseball and football players, and it Is proposed to match the teams with outside organizations. J.

A. Myron, who was instrumental in promoting the organization, was elected Its President last night, while Earl Roberts will serve as Treasurer and R. E.Evans, Secretary! The other officers were empowered to name the athletic committee. C. A who did the pioneer engineering work for the terminal, he having been employed by the railroads in 1904, told the gathering of the preliminary work that had been done prior to the organization of the present staff in October of last year.

While his work largely was of a tentative character It was made the basis for plans now being developed. Colonel Henry M. Waite, chief engineer In charge of the project stressed the loyalty that would be required of each member of the staff. He stated the organization "included the best engineering brains that could be gathered," and that the co-operation of the entire staff Is relied upon to speed up the work so that the officers of the terminal company could keep faith with the people by completing the gigantic project within record time. H.

A. Worcester, Vice President of the Big Four Railroad and President of the Cincinnati Union Terminal Company, was unable to attend the gathering, having been called away to New York. Mr. Worcester, however, gave his approval to the organization and expressed the thought that It would tend to stimulate the staff to put forth their best effort COUNTY PATROL FILLED.

St Bernard, as a Deputy Sheriff yesterday to fill out the quota of 12 men who will patrol the rural districts of Hamilton County.

They will work from o. m. to 6 a. m. patroling the country roads In automobiles, and m-ill wear caps, black belts and badges as a uniform.

The Community Chest Is the Many Important scientific subjects of Interest to the physicians In Cincinnati attending the eighty-second annual convention of the Ohio State Medical Association were discussed yesterday at th many sectional meet- ngs held on the first day of the con vention at the Hotel Gibson. Among the subjects discussed at the scientific assembly were the following: Experience which Dr. James I Fisher, Youngstown, had with pella gra, a seraltropical disease, known at times as "Lombardy leprosy," was outlined. All of these cases, Dr. Fisher said, were treated In northern climates.

Need and value of proper lavage, or bathing, of the bronchial tube In certain illnesses was described by Dr. Howard L. Btltt, Cincinnati. Certain teats of importance In the diagnosis and treatment of major nephrltldes, or kidney disease, were described by Dr. Lee Foshay, Cincinnati.

Extensive destruction of the pancreas may occur In pancreatitis, an inflammation of abdominal salivary gland, without distinctive symptoms, Dr. V. C. Rowland. Cleveland, pointed out in an outline of this disease.

Complications presented by fractures of the heel bone or os calcls were presented by Dr. H. R. Conn, Akron. The Importance of urography in the diagnosis of abdominal symptoms was emphasized by Dr.

C. W. Moots, Toledo. Pathological causes of sacs on the gullet were outlined by Dr. Andre Crottl, Columbus.

H. S. Reichle. Cleveland. Curative and preventive methods employed in cases of rickets, a disease surgical service to employees and their families regardless of the tyi'e of disability Involved and the time or circumstances under which incurred.

Such contract medical service Is believed to be detrimental In the long run to the best Interests of those for whom it is provided, and as such cannot be considered as consistent with the principles of this organization. "Socialization of medicine may be a development of the future. Many signs portend such eventuality. However, the medical profession, maintaining that the unit of medical practice is the individual patient, believes such trend would do great harm by placing medical practice upon an impersonal basis, with less Incentive for beat efforts with removal of the present keen competition, and that Irreparable damage would be done to the progress of medicine through reduction of Investigative efforts. If these Inferences be correct, then the harm to future generations would far outweigh the benefits likely to'accure.

"The past 60 years have been callod the Golden Age of Medicine because of the many important medical discoveries made therein. These have led some to maintain that In this period five of decades medicine has made mora, real progress In promoting the longevity of maklnd than In the previous 5,000 years. Whether this be exaggeration or not, the fact remains that the new discoveries In medicine have created a widespread lntrest among the public concerning means of disease control and prevention. Naturally the public looks to the medical profession to satisfy their curiosity about these matters." ABANDONED BOY Entertained By Hotel, Proves To Be Cincinnati Youngster With Imagination. A "wild" story told by Richard Nie haus, 8 years old, to the management of the Hotel Gibson, about being abandoned by his aunt and parents, of New York City, was shattered when the boy's mother, Mrs.
