Report on friedman
Vaccine
DOES NOT JUSTIFY
CONFIDENCE INSPIRED

Announced at Meeting in Washington
Today-Has Lessened Confidence in
Regular Treatments.

WASHINGTON, May 9-The public
health service observation so far into
the condition of the patients inoculatcd
by DR.. F. +. friedman with his tu-
bercuIosis vaccine do not "iustify that
confidence in the remedy which has
been inspired by widespread publicity,
in the opinion OF the surgeons who have
conducted the government 5 investiga-
tion.
This first authentic and official con
clusion was announced today before the
National Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis by DR.. John
F. Anderson, director of the govern
ment hygienic laboratory and DR.. A.
NJ, Stimson, public health surgeon, de
tailed to observe the Friedman pa
ticnts.
DIR. Friedman : reluctance to fur
nish certain details was not satisfactory
to the Investigators from scientific
standpoint, the report says.
The opinion is further expressed that
harm has been done by undue public
itv, in so far as it has lesseued the con-
| fidence of tuberculosis patients in well
recognized methods of treatment and
has interrupted their use.

Besides the host of Sir Knights
who are IN attendance at the con
clavr there are over 10000 visitors
IN the city, and unusual and careful
plans have been prepared for their
care and comfort, Special plans
have been arranged by the telephone
company IN anticipation of the great
increase IN the number of telephone
calls during the couclavc. For
months past that company has been
busy installing emergency telephones,

ton with its vast influx of visitor-
and consequent increase of telephone
calls is only n repetition of other con

have to handle in the future. Our
plant investment has always been,
and must always be- sufficient to take
care of not only the usual daily bust
ness, but the maximum number of
calls that come to our switchboards.
This is true not only of Denver and
other large centcrS but of each one
of our exchanges throughout the ter

handled as a unit. The provisions in
Denver during the present conclave
are such that each one of the daily
100000 calls will be handled as
promptly and as carefully as at any
other time"
The careful study and preparation
TO provide for the telephone needs of
conventions and similar gatherings
shows quite conclusively that the
business of the telephone company,
as well as that of other service cor
