FRIEDMAN TEST
AGAIN DELAYED
Mildly Censures His AM
eriCan Critics.
Suggests That They Wait And
See Before They Make
Comment.

New York, March 3.-Dr. Friedrich
Franz Friedman, discoverer of Sc
rum which he says will cure tuber-
culosis, changed all his plans tonight.
and announced that the treatment
of sufferers from the white plague
will not begin Monday, as given
out.
The real estate people, it is under
stood, objected to subletting the
Fifth Avenue office in which DR..
friedman purposed administering
his cure, because other tenants in
the buildings we're up in arms against
having the place besieged by an army
of consumptives seeking relief.
DR.. Arthur C. H. friedman, the
doctors brother, stated that all per-
sons desiring to test the cure must
present a letter from their family
physician, giving the status of the
patients condition. The letters will
be tabulated, and the patients noti-
fled when the time comes for con-
sultation.
The majority of physicians of the
city are still Withholding their APP
.proval of the cure, and out Of this
objection arises the difficulty Of suf-
ferers securing letters to the Berlin
doctor. DIR. Friedman said it would
probably be two weeks before they
could begin testing the serum here.
DR.. Friedman said today, that
his only purpose in coming to this
country was to insure the correct
application of his remedy. He said
details of the preparation of his Sc
rum would be given to physicians to
benefit the greatest possible number
of sufferers.
The principle of treatment of tu-
berculosis," said DR.. Friedman,
with living bacilli-that is bacilli
absolutely Indianapolis pisitive-
ly new and must for that reason be
thoroughly studied and learned, as
is the case with everything else that
is absolutely new.
"a physician, no matter how great
in experience or how capable, IL
qualified to investigate and criticize
new PRINCIPLES only after he has learn
ed how to apply them and observe
the results.
"The chief thing l insist upon Is
that it is not only necessary for a
physician to possess correct remedy
for tuberculosis but he also must
learn to individualize with regard
to usage.
$50 far as the Friedman remedy
Is concerned he must study especially
in regard to the repetition of the
treatment. Especially important ia
the interval between the first and
second injections.
81 have learned this only by many
years of study and observation, and
1t is on this point that experience is
required because Of differences in in
dividuals and in the phases of the
cases.
1T is clear that success would be
jeopardized by failure to observe pre-
cautions in this regard-that Ia,
method Of application and interval.
at is my entire aim as soon as
possible to obtain rooms where can
treat a large number of patients of
all classes. tuberculosis is especially
disease of the poor and lowly, and
to them the treatment will be of
great benefit.
at Is not true that | have any
secrets. will allow every physician
to see my method OF treatment in
SO far as the size of the room Will
permit, because | want all sufferers
to have the benefit of 1t.
"As soon as physicians have learn
ed the method thoroughly they shall
receive 1t and later they also shall
learn the method of preparation.
