DOCTORS SPA1 OVER

TOWN OF IAYLORVILLE

Dr. Hewitt Trying to Have Dr. Roberts Removed—Latter Won't Move.

Dr. John H. Hewitt, member of the State board of health appeared'before the board of county commisioners and ftsked if the board would co-operate in a movement to "clean up" Taylorville, which, he said, was filled with cases of Contagious diseases, which were like!-, to spread to Terre Haute. He had with him. Captain Keesling, of the lociil army recruiting station.

Captain Keesling said that he had n personal knowledge of the conditions in Taylorville, but that if they were as reported by Dr. Hewitt, when men Were to be conscripted from there, something ought to be done. Commissioners Altekruse and Phillips, who Were present, said that they would Consider the matter until Wednesday, to find out what authority they hau and what they could do in the matter. "I received no notice of a meeting of the county commissioners to consider the Taylorville situation." said Dr. W. H. Roberts, county health commission•r, Tuesday morning. "As I am the J,roper custodian ot such a situation as was reported, I should think that 1 •would have been notified of any meeting. "Recently, I made some of Dr. Hewitt's patients observe quarantine and the doctor has been after my scalp ever since, "Dr. Hewitt, a few weeks ago, tried to induce Dr. Barnard to dismiss me If the politicians want this place so fcadly, I would rather quit thai^ be tampered by them in doing my work. "It Taylorville is reking with infectious and contagious disease, physicians, whose duty it is to report such cases to me, have not done so, and 1 €on't know it. 1 don't believe there is a single case of smallpox in Taylorville. As far as trachoma is concerned, there may be a few cases of this, but trachoma is not hard to check. Any intelligent doctor knows this. There have leen no cases of this reported recently. It Dr. Hewitt finds a case of this disease. It is his duty to report it to tne, and he has not done so. I am the proper custodian of such matters and Whenever a case is reported to me, I take the proper steps to nrrest the progress of the disease. If there are any infectious and contagious diseases in Taylorville, the doctors do not report them." i '•Taylorville is due for a cleanup," •aid Dr. Hewitt. "I have taken the Unsitter up with the state board of ftealth, yet I am uncertain as to what Heps will be taken. 1 say it is true that there are a number of cases of trachoma there and also about nine cases ©f smallpox. I know trachoma when 1 fee it. You can say I'm going to clean Up Taylorville." "I was not informed that there was ffo he a meeting of the commissioners llondav afternoon, and I did not attend a meeting if such meeting was held," •aid Commissioner Henry Cullen. "I don't see what the commissioners can do about the health conditions of Taylorville.**

County Attorney Royse said that the Uiw did not give the commissioner any power to quarantine or condemn Taylorville. So far ns he knew the eomJliissmners could do nothing. He said thnt the matter was wholly within llio hands of the health authorities. He said he did not know why Hewitt took il up with the commissioners.

It is said that Dr. Hewitt has filed formal charsres with the s'at^ board against Dr. Pnb''-«« v-i/i v.,.. ., t.,,. for hearing of the charges on July 27.

The state board of health aas the power to reqiove a county health commissioner. The county commissioners make the appointment.
