MEDICAL ACADEMY
BACKS GROUP PLAN
First to Give Support to Hos
Sy 'United Presg
CLEVELAND Sept g—The eco-
nomics committee of the Academy
of Medicine today proposed hospital
insurance fcr the general public at
$9 yearly in what was believed to
be the first support by the medical
profession itself of a universal hos-
pitalization plan
Dr Milton B Cohen chairman
of the committee said that the plan
had been approved in principle by
the academy's board of directors
He said that the committee would
work out details and then put it to
a vote of the academy's member-
ship If approved he said it probably
would go into effect shortly after
Jan 1
As proposed the medical insur-
ance would cost the citizen 75 cents
a month or $9 a year It would pay
$ 6 daily toward his doctor bills for
every day up to 21 days spent in a
hospital during the year or a
maximum payment of $126
AID FOR CHILD
BLIND RESTORED
(Continued From Page One)
OPWC members were turning their
attention meantime to cultivating
legislative good will
A warning that representatives
and senators may be highly critical
of the old age pension board was
sounded by C H Hyde commission
member from Alva
Mr Hyde demanded that the
commission prepare a full report on
all expenditures of funds and have
it ready for submission to the Leg-
islature in January
The commission several months
ago promised the national board
that every effort would be made to
have the Legislature raise the
amount that may be spent for ad-
ministration from 5 to 10 per cent
Seek More Funds
"Unless the Legislature has con
fidence in our director and in the
commission" said Mr Hyde "there
is going to be considPrable diffi-
culty In getting twice as much
Money for administration"
The 2 per cent sales tax has been
raising about $900000 a month giv-
ing the pension board about $45000
a month to administer the law This
fund Is matched by federal money
Increasing the ambunt to some $00-
000 a month
One of the criticisms made by
the federal board when Oklahoma
was suspended from 'Uncle Sams
pension payroll March 2 was that
the administrative fund was too
small
The commission promised to make
every effort to get the next Legis-
ature to double the administrative
fund

Britain Repeats
Views for Hitler
By United Press
NUREMBERG Sept 1)—Sir
Nevi le Henderson British ambassa-
dor told Germany today that the
British government views the Czech
crisis with anxiety and that any
rash step might involve many na-
tions it was reported in well-informed
sources
Henderson conferred with Foreign
Minister Joachim Von Ribbentrop
of Germany shortly after noon on
Instructions of the London gov-
ernment to make clear to the Nazi
leaders the viewpoint of Great
Britain
Firm on Stand
There have been suggestions that
some Nazi extremists take the at-
titude that Britain would not fight
for Czechoslovakia in event of a
war in Central Europe and it was
understood that Henderson's task
was to make clear to Adolf Hitler's
chief advisers the firm position of
London
At the same time Henderson
sought to avoid any irritation that
might add to the dangers of the
current Czech crisis and result in
any drastic declaration on Monday
when Hitler delivers his climatic
address at the Nuremberg Nazi

was reported to have arrived here

It was understood that Hender-

SCHOOL HEARING
IS NEARING JURY
(Continued From Page One)
violeted whether the violation
was willful
The defense last night renewed
Its pela for a directed verdict of
acquittal but Judge Babcock this
morning ruled that the case would
have to go to the jury
The defense stressed the point
that the defendants "while they
technically hRd violated the law
did not do so consciously but had
acted n good faith and hence could
not be convicted and ousted"
'Reasonable Doubt'
Said Judge Babcock in his in-
structions to the jury:
"The court instructs you it
was the duty of the said board to
make and file a bond sufficient to
cover the amount of money he (the
treasurer) was carrying on hand
! during said period (May 1937 to
March 1938) and that a failure on
' their part to do so would be a trio-
lation of their duties as provided by
law
' If you find from all the evidence
beyond a reasonable doubt that the
three defendants now on trial did
neglect to perform their duty and
that such neglect vvas willful and
in bad faith or wm knowingly and
consciously done then you should
find the defendants guilty
"However if you entertain a
reasonable doubt it will be your
duty to return a verdict of not
guilty"
Then Judge Babcock defined will-
ful neglect of duty as meaning:
"That the act or failure to act
was for a bad or evil purpose or
that the officer consciously acts
or fails to act contrary to a known
duty He must be guilty of some
conscious wrong or inexcusable
carelessness or recklessness in fail-
ure to discharge his official duty
"Mere negligence or thoughtless
acts with no bad or evil purpose in
which there is no inexcusable care-
lessness or recklessness will not
justify a removal on the ground of
willful neglect of duty However
It the acts or neglect of an officer
indicate an inexcusable and reck-
less disregard of his duties he must
be held answerable for a willful
neglect"
Several times in the course of his
Instructions Judge Babcock made
the statement:
"Before you can return a verdict
of guilty you must find and believe
beyond a reasonable doubt that the
act or omission on the part of the
defendants was willfully done or
that it was consciously and purpose-
ly done with a reckless disregard of
their duties
Cite Monthly Reports
"It is not necessary that they
acted dishonestly or corruptly but
In order to sustain a conviction it
must be established that they acteck
consciously"
The state attorneys—Lewis R
Morris and Handell S Cobb—have
contended that evil intent was not
a factor in the willful maladminis-
tration charge: only "careless and
reckless neglect of duty"
The state attorneys contended
that Scruggs had submitted monthly
reports showing he had more than
$200000 on hand and that the
board had "habitually neglected its
duty by failing to increase the
bond"
It took 'Judge Babcock nearly an
hour to read 25 pages of Jury in-
structions This morning Judge Babcock en-
tered the courtroom briskly took
his place on the bench and an-
nounced his decision 4
"Now in telation to the case we
are trying" he said "I have made
up my mind in that matter I am
HOLD EVERYTHING
going to submit the ease to the
jury
"I got away from the per-
suasive arguments Of the attorneys
and determined that the evidence
In the ease requires Its submission
to the jury
"There are matters in it that
the court is not authorized to de-
termine Motion for directed ver-
dict over-ruled"
Defense counsel had asked that
Judge Babcock include in his In-
structions to the Jury two points:
THAT MR LILLÄRD though a
lawyer was no more responsible
for interpreting the controversial
statute than other board mem-
bers THAT AN ACT in good faith
in misconstruction of the law
constitutes a defense
Had Judge Babcock sustained the
motion the state attorneys would
not have attempted to try Otto
Rose Moses Schilling and Hosea H
Price on the same charges they had
said
Appealed Ouster Verdict
These three were removed from
the board last Saturday after being
found guilty of willful maladminis-
tration in a "termite deal" case
but the Scruggs "bond case" against
them was prepared because they
gave notice of intention to appeal
the termite decision
Twice late yesterday Judge Bab-
cock reiterated what he had said
earlier in the day—that be defi-
nitely would submit the case to the
jury He said the issue was whether
the defendants had violated the law
willfully by failing to set adequate
bond for Scruggs
But Congressman Smith one of
the defense attorneys tenaciously
hung to his chief plea:
"There has been a technical vio-
lation of the law but it was an
honest mistake by laymen who re-
lied on advice of lawyers and of-
ficials they regarded as experts
The defendants would have had to
be conscious of a wrong-doing in
setting an inadequate bond to be
convicted"
The result was that Judge Bab-
cock decided to withhold overnight

his final judgment on the motion
for a directed verdict of acquittal
Through former board members
Ancel Earp Earl Foster and Fred
Jones the defense sought tb show
that the $200000 school treasurer's
bond has been the rule for years
The defendants themselves testi-
fied they were minority members of
the board—although Mr Fez ler and
Mr Earn on cross-examination
classed Mr Knight as a majority
member
Defense Attorney Barry said that
Judge Babcock's interpretation of
the statute regarding the bond for
the school district treasurer will
affect most of the states many
school districts
Vote Confidence In Cluck
"The smart thing to do" Mr
Barry said "will be for School
Boards to appoint the county treas-
urer their treasurer because he
doesn't require any extra bond
under the law That's what Okla-
homa City is doing"
The defense attorneys Mr Smith
Mr Barry and Malcolm McKenzie
reiterated their contention that no
attempt to "pack" the board will be
made by the defendants If they are
cleared and the other board mem-
bers Dr L E Glass and C C
Cluck
Last night the city Trades and

Mr Cluck a union man and also
