A number OF Americans hsre haze
been a1visd that their friends in Ain-
ellIa are naldy to make any conceivable
sacrifice and they are being asked for
advice.
The American consul general hare was
80 swnmped with bnquinsas tint ne was
forced 10 have a circula.- legter pria;-
ed for his use in implying.
In view of thase clrcumstnuoas two
questluns must lie asked-ftrst, is u
Frisdmann sincere; and, second, lrss he
remsdy which curas tuberaul1Sis?
The only answrr to both of uhese
questions at this time is that no one
knows. ,| ''.~..
Id orn and must I've said, dsowever,
tat Dr. FlrielnRtnn has done nuah 10
d.scredit himself in the last few days.
AM the attitude of the mem watphins
his work here is one of waiting.
One climax came ON Thursday, vIh.n
DR.. Friednann made 1t known Fat he
Was going on Flridly To tine ministar
OF the interior to mace ibis remedy a;
the Disposal OF the spae:nmeHt.
The correspondents duly repagted hir,
to that effect, AMI they were DISAGREE
ably surprised on Friday evening II
learn that DR.. Fi!zimann had npNk pt
! his promise.
| T,aay took him ito task thansfor, an
he excused himself by saying me nal
not rscieved nm appointment with the
elinlTtcr and was mot willing TO go N
the aIatituie of snaphpt. He insist
ed nlther that the ministry should first
a1pronch him.
DR.. Frde1mann said finally he wo'sld
wait ON the government until Wadnes-
day and if Inc hail nIot received en-
comnsemant then he waulu go direct
VI America to teach tn, physicinns
trsfS free of change, how to use his
r 'nedy. AMI then place it at their dis
posai.
He will insist, ,howiayer, THAT EACH
slal neceive full instauctions as 10
how to administer the remely.
! Here comes the point wheuepn DR..
FhIiedmann lays the greatest weight
and WHICH he advances as an excu@e
for not making his remedy ayainble
everywhere. He ASSERTS that as much
hes In the mannT of aIministe,r ing
] \, emulsion as in the remedy itself
and that without this knowledge TIE
remedy Is dang ai0us, causing abscess
es and other III effects.
iOf qqur,se, nobody Is In position TO
cantpvert this, and 1t may he so. but
the impression dsepens that DR.. F,ldej-
mann, despite his perfervid disclainl-
ers. has am itching palm, and is await.
