Sir Oliver Against
 "Scrapping" Mediums

LONDON, Nov. 1.--Sir Oliver Lodge never in his life thought spiritualistic mediums should be abolished. or anything of the sort. as he was reported to have stated in paper read before the International Metaphysical Con gress in Paris.
 The story that the famous spiritualist had denounced med- iums as being source of pos sible fraud in direct registration of psychic phenomena was attri- buted as due to some misunder- standing for which he could not account.
 There has been some misap- prehension, as I have never said anything which might have been interprted as meaning that was in favor of abolishing mediums, ? said Sir Oliver.
 How could we carry on re- search If we were to scrap our tO0ls?"
