who failed to cure the acute and let them become chronic do chronic cases live on in spite of not because of physicians pungent and positive proof the flu began about october 1st ast its end was definitely in sight december 1918 since the last named date we have been compiling medical osteopathic and chiropractic statistics covering between those dates they are as follows DAVENPORT IOWA statistics MAUSER OF REGULAR physicians NUMBER OF CASES UNDER MEDICAL EDICAL 31 CARE MEDICAL DEATHS 50 DAVENPORT chiropractors NUMBER OF CASES UNDER chiropractic chiropractic DEATHS including students

boasted education of physicians if people in the U S had flu and chiropractors could have sic ians how ho much they know how much power they want ant to control people avith ith not adjusted these people and the chiropractic Chho death rate is 1 to then being satisfied with being useless in in the face ol of the flu they try to drive chiropractors only should have died not in in the same useless educational channels channel claiming that we Q cant do anything our reports are from chira n actors 17 times as many as the 50 physicians until we know kno everything they were eie taught that we cant be competent chiropractors of davenpoot Daven iowa who had a death list of cases which is almost 7 times until anve e have been taught the THEORY and PRACTICE of MEDICINE that as many as the chiropractors actors man is is best educated who is most useful war wai is is primarily intended TO TAKE life physicians are aie taught how our reports further show cases with a death rate of 41 cases as M to SAVE M life when they stand helplessly by and see SIX TIMES AS compared with the physicians death list of with cases we have to our MANY lie die at THEIR hands as died under war ai should they not then be recorded as credit 17 times as many practitioners 7 times as many cases with the M D s having 6 times as dangcil dangerous oils as war ai when chiropractors reduce that record away below times as many deaths in proportion tile the pale of the record of war wai then we become a useful member ot of society upon the same basis the chiropractors would be entitled to 17 times as WHETHER WE STUDY subject foi for subject subie ct hour for hour the same as medicine many cases or inasmuch as the davenport medical ratio is I 1 death in 18 01 not and WHETHER we e study no matter
