continue his treatment Of tuberculosis
patients with his turtle serum under
the observation of government experts
None of the patients subjected for
tests by the government surgeons some
time ago has been examined by DR.
Friedman since they received their
first injection Of the serum. Neither
have they received any further injec-
tions, as Dr. Friedman remains the
sole possessor OF the bacill from which
the toxin is obtained.
IL is within the power of the gov
eminent to prevent the treatment by
DR.. Friedman of any additional pa
TENTS except those offered by the gov
eminent surgeons under a Federal
statute regulating the sale of virus
or toxins or their Importation for any
use from foreign countries or the in
terstate transportation of the same
unless manufactured by duly licensed

DR.. friedman will examine the gov

morrow morning in company with Drs
Lavender and Simpson. OF the United

that he will then receive the injunc-
ton that he must refrain from treat
ing any new patients until he has
demonstrated the merits of his serum
