SERUM
NOT RECOMMENDED
Public Health Officials Are
Not Ready to Give Their
20. K" to Treatment.

Emphatic denial was made by officials
OF the Treasury Department and of the
Public Health Service today that the
service had at any time even intimated
that any Of the claims of DR.. Friedrich
Friedman, with respect to his tubercu-
losis cure had been substantiated.
So far as the service is concerned. II
was positively announced that none OF
DR.. Friedmann's claims had been sub
stantiated or passed upon by the Public
Health Service The Friedman vaccine
ts still under test and examination. and
no report will be made for at least sew
eral weeks, and probably several
months.
A number of guinea pigs have been
innoculated at the hygienic laboratory
by DIR. Anderson, but the tests in this
respect have not been completed. Ap-
parently, at this time. the guinea pigs
have suffered no severe i'll effects from
TIE remedy, but should II have SUFFICIENT
yirulence TO kill them, IL will probably
be weeks before these effects are de-
yeIoped. Consequently the service can
say nothing, with respect TO them.
Absolute denial is made that any OF
the friedman claims have been sub
tantiated.

same as tia fathered by the Republi-

measure between the low rates OF the
Underwood bill and the high rates OF
the old Payne law. which PRESIDENT
Taft said were "indefensible."
The basic principle Of the Republican
substitute. prepared by Mr.. Payne and
former Congressman Ebenezer Hill Of
Connecticut, is that wool and cloth
should be taxed on the actual wool
content" The rates on yarns ranged
according to value. the duties suggested

The minority, however, voted for
