The report of the government sur

the effects of the Friedman tuber-
culois vaccine gives far from favor
able impression of the virtue of the
so-called cure. The investigators say
in part: "Without presenting in de-
tail the condition of patients under
observation we are in a position to
state that the facts thus far OBJ
served do not justify that confidence
in the remedy which has been in
spired by widespread publicity"
Notwithstanding the report of the

American right to control the sale of
a vaccine that possesses no virtue.
