THE VALUE OF ANIMAL ExPERT
 MBNTATTON.

In recent issue of The Journal of the American Medical Association Prof Walter B. Cannon, head of the department of Physiology of Harvard Med1ca1 School. reviews the efforts that have been made in New York and Pennsylvania to restrict scientif1c investigation and urges that every- thing possible be done to enliRhtan the intelligent public as to the great practical results of animal experiment. atlon, the important problems that re-
 main to be solved, the ideals of the investigators kho are trying to solve these problems, and the essential 5,1I- man1ty of their methods.
 Dr. William H. Welch Of Johns Hopkins has summed up very pre- c1seIy the reasons for opposing the efforts of the antivivisectionists. t'Tyhe Fundamental objection,,' he declared.
 to the various legislative proposa Is to regulate animal experimentation by a system of licenses, of inspections, of specifications as to the purposes and conduct of the experiments is that the enactment of such statutes would take the control of a matter of the highest importance to human welfare and one requiring special Knowledge and training and skill, out of the hands of the experts, who possess these qualifications, and would place it in charge of those who have not the requisite technical knowledge and experience. Not those who know. but those who do not know, would be given a discretion which might prove disastrous to the future of scientific medicine This is a monstrously wrong principle to embody in 1egis- Iation. Science has waged a long war fare through the centuries for free dom of investigation. The last of its battles is being wagedi today for free dom of experimental research in mediE cine. While I do not doubt the issue of this battle, I conceive it to be the duty of the public and of the press to support the cause of freedom in this contest, which is likewise that of true humanity"

WOULDN'T TRADE
 GARDNER FOR BAKER
President M'AIeer of Red Sox Has Confidence in Third
 Baseman

Chicago. May 23.-Although the world champions have not been going well on this trip. President McAleer is apparently confident of winning the pennant again this year. The condf- ton of Gardner, the injured third baseman, troubles him much more than the position of the Red Sox in the race now, or the lead that the Athletics have gained on Boston. TO ascertain Gardner's chances the Red Sox magnate sent the inf1e1der to a specialist in Boston in whom Mo AIeer has great confidence. The St. Louis medicine man, who made the x-ray examination of Gardner's in jured foot, told him that the arch was broken. That is a serious hurt for a ball player and may put man out of business Consequently the Boston ture of his young star and of his in field
 1T wouldn't have traded Gardner for Frank Baker, said AcAIeer yester- day. T mean that, too, and am not detractfng from Bakers value as a ball player. won't believe the arch of Gardner's foot is broken until I hearsf it from a. man to whom have sent him, and hope it is not true. It means so much to him and to us.
 If Gardner. is able to rejoin us in a nant again. It does not look to me as if PhiIadelphia or Washington had the pitchers to stay up there, and our pitchers are sure to round into shape shortly. Then look out for us"
 President NNcAleer said he had no idea of trading Janvrin. for whom he expressed admiration.
