thing that is offered. NOW, gentle
men of the Board of Health, if you
want to make a political question out
of this. do so. You are the ones VINO
are forcing this into politics. If you
would say the little word yes it would
settle the whole matter.
u feel for my brother now the same
as | did when broken hearted sd"
him taken away twenty years ago
Here is a man who says ne can cure
him in six months. 1 have seen him
cure cases in less than six months.
Motley went on to state the history
of his brothers case, claiming Ihal
he had been inoculated with leprosy
baccfl.i during vaccination. along with
six others. all of whom developed the
disease And what are you doing
with the children today? You are vac
cinating them"
With what?'' asked Pinkham.
II don't know" answered the Home
Rule leader, .'but 1 have read that the
cows in Egypt, where the vaccine Is
made are affected with tuberculosis
And your own. statistics show that
more and more Hawaiians are dying
with tuberculosis every month.
Here is the last straw. II you Jet
this man go from the Territory the
Hawaiians will never forgive you.
They will call you murderers. Inc
Republican party can get all the credlt
out of this if they want It. 1t IS not
for politics that I am here, but be
stubborn and you will put it into pcl-
tics. You say that Wallach is 1gnor-
ant, but he can speak seven languages.
For all you know he may be IooIlhS
us all about his education. But let US
grant his request and get his medlclhe
for the poor Hawaiians. He mas
potent drug. | have been an eye wit
ness to his cures. l appeal for those
poor unforturates in Molokai- Inc
people can wait, but they cannot wait
forever"
ASKS FOR PROOF.
President Pinkham then asked Not
lev why he did not produce some or
the proof of which he had knowledge
before the board. If Motley had to be
shown proof, why should the board
not be shown some?
The onus of any refusal on the part
of the board rests upon ]. Ior Wal
ZACH and those who refuse to present
us with any evidence upon which we
can act" added the president.
THE DELEGATE HITS OUT.
Delegate Kalanianaole made strong
speech in which he denounced Wallach
las a fake from top to bottom, denounc-
ed those back of the two petitions as
scheming politicians and warned the
board that these very same politicians
will bring up the leprosy question IN
the next campaign as they had tried
! to bring it up in the last one. He
| declared that Wallach's very smirk
was an insult to the board and advised
| the members to throw him out. But,
he stated that Wallach should be given
a chance If he really had such a cure
as he claimed it would be a God-send
| to Hawaiians.
! The Delegate was as strong in his
denuncia tons of Wallach and the poll
| ticians as he was strong in his express
| sions of opinion that Wallach should
! be given a chance to try his remedies.
! DIR. BALDWIN IS POSITIVE.
/ 81 wish to go on record that I am
absolutely opposed to the granting of
| this petition in any FORM said DR..
Baldwin, who gave his reasons from a
|
| irredeemable harm Wallach could do
/ if he did, as was quite possible, effect
a seeming cure. Such cures were COM
mon in leprosy, as every medical man
knew, and before they could be shown
as false cures some years might elapse
and in that time Wallach could bleed
the people by pronouncing to the ignor-
ant that all their ailments resulted
/ from leprosy.
At the conclusion of DR.. Baldwin 9
/ address a motion to adjourn, subject
to the call of the chair, was made by
Dr. Wayson. Wallach was on his feet
Immediately.
Il would like to say few words be-
| fore"
''win you please sit down?" said
Pinkham.
II want to say few words before
that motion is put insisted Wallach.
You wait until the motion is put in
order" said the secretary, and Wallaeh
sat down to wait.
The motion was seconded and carried
and the members began to leave their
seats, when Wallach expostulated.
That's a nice way to do. You call
a man a fraud and then not give him
a chance to speak. This doctor here
/ said 1 would call everything leprosy.
! When did I ever say that there was
any leprosy here? This is very unfair
| of you
No one answered Wallach and ap-
parently no one paid any attention to
him. the room being cleared of all but
| about a dozen before he had finished.
