A year ago. with flivver deliv

$|? Advance said:
Raving aolved the problem of
teeing into Pasquotank. Curri
tuck and Camden counties on the
day of Issue. The Advance is now
wondering how it can do the suine
thing in Gates and Perquimans.
In Perquimans the question
aeems to resolve Itself Into one of
getting rural mall carrier* to wall
for train one before starting out
on their respective routes. This
would give their patrons faster
service, and would bi\ It seems to
VS. for the best Interest of all con
cerned. Perquimans rural route
patrons are urged to give this
matter their serious consideration
A petition from them urging their
carriers to wait for train one
would, we are sure, meet a ready
raaponse.
In Gates County, we confeaa.
the problem appears as difficult as
did that in Currituck and Camden
before the days of good roada and
the flivver. Huggestluns along
this line from our subscribers in

the situation remains unchanged.

Sir Walter Hotel. Raleigh. July
31 The State may strike u snag
lu the prosecution of Its rase wt*k
lug to close the Highland hospital
in AkIicvUIv, operated by Dr. K
S. Carroll. us the rmult ?>f the
cancellation of his lkeuse to prac
the In the State following the pre
ferring of charge* of gross Im
morality against him before the
State liourd of Medical Kxa miners
recently. This snag consists in
whether or not the judge of the
Wake Superior Court, when the
case comes to trial, will permit the
introduction of the record of the
proce* dings before the Slate Hourd
of Medical Kxamluers, or whether
the court will Insist that the wit
nesses that testified then will have
to appear as witnesses.
If the court permits the intro
ductions of the record of the se
cret hearing before the medical
board, well and good for the State
and the Department of Public
Welfare, which has caused the
suit to be brought. But if the
court lusists that these sume wit
nesses must appear in person at
the trial that appeared before the
medical board In secret session,
it will be another matter. And It
is evident that Dr. Carroll's de
fense attorneys will do all In their
power to obtain such a ruling from
the court.
Although the office of the At
torney CJeneral here is silent on
the queHtion and declined to dis
cuss any phase of It. it is known
that the State will have a far more
difficult time in getting the ten or
twelve women who testified at the
secret hearing before the medical
board to come to Raleigh to testi
fy iu open court as to the alleged
immoral relations of Dr. Carroll
with his patients than before. The
heariug before the State Medical
Board was secret, the testimony
was given to a small group of pro-,
fessional men, accustomed to talk
ing with patients concerning mat
ters of an Intimate nature, and
the names of the witnesses were
carefully guarded, so that they
would not be made public. And
under these conditions, a number
of former patleuts were persuaded
to testify who otherwise probably
would not have done so.
