Dr.. friedman had boldly come to
the city from across the ocean after

the newcomer and offered to give him
every opportunity Of demonstrating
his serum in one Of the tuberculosis
hospitals before competent medical
men. The board prohibited him. how

This plan was not in accordance with
the wishes Of the physician. Thus,
