GOVERNMENT EXPERIMENTS
WILL BE CONDUCTED ON
GUINEA PIGS AND MONKEYS

Officials of the United States Public
Health Service yesterday expressed the
keenest interest in the outcome of the
interview had in New York with DR.
Friedman, the German, who has de-
veloped a cure for tuberculosis. by DR..
John +. Anderson. director of the hy-
Eienic laboratory. AS the result of an
arrangement made with DIR. Friedman
by DR.. Foster, the New York representa-
tive of the Public Health Service. Dr.
Anderson left Washington yesterday with
the understanding that he was to be
given consultation with DIR. Friedman.
1t was stated that while DIR. Friedman
had made no definite promise that he
would present the Public Health Service
with cultures of his cure, it was conf
IDENTIFY expected that he would do so
after his conference with DR.. Foster
Wednesday. The Public Health author
tiles will take every possible advantage
Of the new cure, if once they are per-
mitted TO have it, and will distribute the
benefits as much as possible throughout
the country.
Senator Gore of Oklahoma is desirous
that the United States government have
absolute control of the discovery in this
country. Surg. Gen. Blue, OF the Public
Health Service. in speaking Of this prop
osition. said II undoubtedly would prove
beneficial for the American people, but
recommendations until he shall have
given the cultures a thorough examina-
tion and test. II they prove what is
claimed for them he will endeavor TO
make a suitable arrangement with DR..
Friedman for their use by the govern
ment, as has been done in connection
with other discoveries in medical sci
ence.
While no report has yet been received
from DR. Anderson, it is understood by
the public health authorities that DR..
Friedman refuses to distribute Dis cui-
lures through private practice. AS soon
rs Dr. Anderson can obtain either the
cultures or the secret of developing them,
he will hasten to Washington and begin
experiments in the hygienic laboratory.
Notwithstanding that hundreds of per-
sons already have applied to the Public
Health Service for treatment, the expert
ments will first be conducted on guinea
pigs, monkeys rats, and other animals.

duce the daily number of smokes to
three. The financier showed the keenest
