SAYS HE CAN CURE LEPR0SY
BY FREEZING PROCESS
Philadelphia Surgeon Asserts He Can
Conquer Skin Plague.

DR.. Ralph Bernstein, dermatologist
of the Hahnemann hospital and medi-
cal college. Philadelphia. who is a
worldwide authority on skin diseases
and cancer specialist, declares that
he can cure leprosy by freezing with
solidified carbon dioxide. This is the
method he has successfully used In
treating epitheioma, or skin cancer.
The solution placed ON the skin causes
the cells to expand. and nature then
breaks them down and carries them
away.
"Leprosy can only be contracted
through the medium of an open
wound" said DR. Bernstein. Even
this is doubtful, for Ii has been tried
scientifically to produce the disease IT
self by direct incubation of the germs
in the healthy human living tissue. and
it has been absolutely unsuccessful.
81 have come to learn that we need
not fear an epidemic of leprosy. Ii is
to be borne in mind that those who
have contracted the disease have been
poorly fed and usually live under poor
hygienic conditions and that IL rarely
attacks those whose surroundings are
hygienic.
"My method is to apply modified, so
lidified carbon dioxide to the infected
portion. which causes an intense freez
ing of the part, producing what the
physician would call thrombosis of the
various vessels. which means. In other
words. the cutting off OF the supply or
nourishment of the infected part and

''The freezing substance Is applied
some 100 degrees below zero. Ii Is
practically painless, and ] have great
hopes that it will In the near future
be universally used as a cure for lep
rosy.

FINES PAY EXPENSES
OF NATIONS JUSTICE.
Attorney Generals Annual Report Says
Department Was Self Sustaining.

Attorney General Wickersham In his
annual report states that In the last
fiscal year his department has been
self sustaining The attorney general
states that during the year little
more than $4,OO00O0 In the nature OF
fines was collected by his department
and that this more than paid the ex-
penses.
Last year the department Of justice
collected $3,500,000 In fines. 1t was not
quite enough to balance the expenses

The fines collected In both years were
from half hundred different sources.

and public land cases and trust prose.

The report contains statement
showing just what has been accom-
plished In the line Of trust and 9th.
er prosecutions the department has
brought during the year.
On the three dissolution actions pend.
ing, the powder trust. the plumbers
trust and the harvester trust, the at
torney general says no definite decisions
have been reached. He said he could
not say at this time, because he did
not know. whether all three Of the cor
porations named would dissolve with
out litigation. He said the negotiations
porations looking to dissolution with
out any more court fighting were on
still.
From other sources in the depart
ment 1t was learned that the powder
trust and plumbers trust cases prob
ably would be concluded In a few
weeks and that the government and
the trust officials had about reached an
agreement.
There Is considerable doubt, how
ever, about the government and har-
vester trust ever coming to terms. The
government will not recede from its
declaration last summer when the OFF,
cials OF the harvester trust first made
oyertures for voluntary dissolution.
1t was said at the department that the
indications are that the harvester peo-
pie will not agree to the governments
scheme of dissolution, but will fight
the case In the courts. The government
has its bill In equity drawn up and
ready to file.
