that in the opinion of this commission the
proposed legislation is unnecessary and

that 1T would be especially harmful i'm it's
restriction of experiments relating to the
cause, prevention and cure of the infec-

of immense benefit to the human race; and
that in general our knowledge of phys

forming the basis of scientific medicine
has been largely obtained by experiments
upon living animals, and could have been
obtained in no other way; that physical MS

cure of disease are The best judges of the
character of the experiments required and
of the necessity for using anaesthetics, and
that in our judgment they may be trusted
to conduct such experiments in a humane
manner, and to give anaesthetics when re-
