in from the sale of tags and the scout
management had the qualification Of
seeing that the best element Of WASH

The sale of tags began at Z o'clock

until I o'clock last night. During that
time 11oo boys were in every. section

The scouts who sold tags under the su-

collections. The total amount taken in
by. this detail was s7s1.17. The highest
individual collection made was that OF

Wade Hampton de Fontaine,. of $50
West Seventy-fifth street, who are
interested in. syndicate which they
hope will obtain control OF the sale
in this country of DR.. F'riejmann's s
turtle vaccine for tuberculosis, told
yesterday how they came to form the
concern. Those who are seeking to
interest DR.. Friedman in their plans
realize, with the Berlin physician. it
it said, that all attempts to form a
syndicate even though the -avowed
object is to put the remedy wi thin
reach of the poor, must await the re-
suit of the Government tests which
are now being made.
While DR.. Friedman is said, 20 ap-
prove the general plans for the dis
tribution OF his preparation through h
this syndicate. he has not entered in
to any agreement with the promoters
of the concern. he says.
1t was Mr. Stokes who first told OF
the formation of the syndicate. His
statements were confirmed last nigh,
by Mr.. Stuart, who said that the syndi-
cate would give the vaccine to the
poor at little cost DR.. Friedman
could not DE interviewed today, but a
week ago he said that a plan for the
distribution of the vaccine was under
consideration. He denied then that
an attempt would be made to CONNER
cialize his discovery. Former DISTRICT
Attorney Asa Bird Gardiner, according
10 those interested, drew up the papers
for the concern.
II was Mr. Stuart who conceived the
idea of forming the company. He called
20 see Mr.. de Fontaine' some time aga
and asked him If he could obtain $780,
900 by nightfalr' to start the company.
He said that this done he believed ht
could obtain control Of the vaccine. Tie
money was obtained.
They met Mr.. Gardiner in the library
of the Lawyers Club and there an
agreement was drawn up. The plan
calls for the establishment of a SAM
tarium or school here where physicians
will be taught how TO administer the
,.accinc There poor patients will b.
treated. Points of distribution will be
established. Hospitals which treat the
Door will receive a rebate upon the
vaccine. and so cheap will the prep
aration be that il is planned to sell
enough for the treatment of three per-
sons for a dollar.
