AVOID GROUP PRACTICE, CITY DOCTORS TOLD Fishbein Condemns Forms of Competitive Bidding in Medicine. The medical profession must revalue its own work and avoid group practice in these times of depression. Dr. Morris Fishbein. pditor of tiie journal of the American Medical Association and special writer for The Times, told 500 members of the Indianapolis Medical Society at the Athenaeum, Tuesday night. "The man of yesterday was not concerned with the complexities of today of which medicine has become a part," he declared. "The modern home is no longer a place to be sick,” he continued. "With 7.000 grade A hospitals listed in the country for 1932 and 7.000 doctors and 32.500 nurses graduated in the same year, the patient obviously should take advantage of institutions. Revaluate New Factors “When the committee on medical care was formed in 1927 there was no depression and more money was available than people knew what to do with,” Dr. Fishbein declared. “The situation is far different today. If there had been a depression in 1927 there would not have been a million dollars available to form the committee. Today, when such a study is far more important, SIO,OOO could not be raised to form a committee. "The only answer at the present timp to the problem of medical care must be made by the physicians, themselves. They must revaluate the new factors that have come into medical care. Condemns Competitive Bidding Dr. Fishbein condemned competitive bidding in the practice of medicine. declaring it resulted in skimping in the care of the patient. Medical care offered on a price basis alone is a menace to the public, he asserted. "Despite the age of specialization, the general practitioner is the backbone of the medical profession," said Dr. Fishbein. "He has the confidence and belief of his patient, a thing entirely out of the life of the 'group’ physician.” APPOMATTOX DAY TO BE CELEBRATED HERE Patriotic Societies to Hold Observance in Honor of G.

STATE SAVINGS TO PAY LITTLE, ASSERTS JUDGE Closed Bank May Yield Nothing to Depositors, Declares Cox. Depositors of the defunct Stato Savings and Trust bank can expect little, if any. return of their funds, it was declared today by Circuit Judee Earl R. Cox in the course of a hearing attended by Homer C. Elliott, receiver for the bank, and representatives of creditors. "It is my belief." Cox said, ' that depositors should be informed of the true condition of the State Savinas and Trust Company. They probably will receive only a small portion of their deposits and may receive nothing. "This certainly, while unpleasant, is better than uncertainty regarding the situation." Cox praised the work of Elliott as receiver and explained to Richard Evans, a creditors’ representative, economies in handling the work, pointing out that receiverships the State Savings and Trust, the City Trust and Washington bank are being handled in a single office. He charged that between $25,000 and $30,000 had been wasted by Brandt C. Downey, former Washington bank receiver, through use of bank property as offices when there was no need. The court gave Elliott permission to turn back to the mortgage holder, the Virginia Life Insurance Company, the Drexel Arms apartment building at 730 North Illinois street. The building was mortgaged for $50,000 by the State Property Company, a subsidiary of the State Savings and Trust Company.
