It was a revelation of as well i

The fifty word message of Mi

inovations the Telepost has intro

f QRILLS THE VIVISECTIONISTS.
b Advocates of Regulating Animal Ex- v
periments Ask Operators Some Per- e
tinent Questions. ?
y Protesting against attempts to mis- (
i represent the attitude of the Society g
a For the Prevention of Abuse In Animal c
- Experimentation, Mr. F. P. Bellamy, t
b counsel for the society, denies that t
t It ever proposed the prohibition of g
H vivisection. The society standsT"he p
a
e says, upon precisely the platform n
where Herbert Spencer, the greatest a
of English scientists, stood when In B
t 1895 he, with nearly 200 of the most a
e prominent physicians in England and (
- in this country, signed a statement in f
e which he said:
"We believe, therefore, that the a
3 common interests of humanity and J
3 science demand that vivisection, like
' the study of human anatomy In the [j
6 dissecting room, should be brought unl"
der the direct supervision and control c
* of the state. The' practice, whether in
* public or in private, should be restrict- f?
'* ed by law to certain definite objects
" and surrounded by every possible safe- a
* guard against license or abuse." t
Mr. Bellamy Insists that these ques- '
i- tions call for a frank answer from l
those -who oppose any such safe- 1
a guards:
Queries For the Doctors.
B How can legitimate scientific work
^ by competent men be injured by a law J
s which will limit all vivisection to com- i
g petent persons? ?
How can legitimate scientific work ,
e be injured by a jaw which will compel
the use of anaesthetics in all cases
t where the success of the experiment
does not make the use of anaesthetics
impracticable?
If our proposed legislation does not
fully protect legitimate scientific work, |
why do not our opponents who criti,
cise it accept our often repeated invitatlon
and suggest some amendment (
which will fully protect, scientific re5
search?
" Why the secrecy with which vlvlsec- \
tlon Is surrounded? Has the dlsem- *
e boweling of living animals, in order to j
i- experiment with their vital organs, or
t- the amputation of limbs from one ani- J
r. mal and attaching them to another
s become so painless that the public 1
. has no Interest to know what effort is '
made to save unnecessary suffering? *
j. J&t is the brutality of the whole j
g thing so hideous or so unnecessary
h that the operators do not dare to let in *
t the light of Investigation upon it?
s We again challenge them to open 1
s the doors of their star chamber labora- *
[j tories and let the truth be known. In i
no other way can they quiet the pub- j
a 11c apprehension or avert the legisla- j

1 PIONEER AMERICAN LINEN
? MILLS BRANCHING OUT. '
f .
Hugo Plant Now Planned Made Neces -
tmry by One Year*? Development of
new inouiir/.
Impressive evidence of the progress
e of the pioneer American Linen mills
6 established at North Brookfleld, Mass.,
about a year ago is found in the plans
j just completed for extending the plant
Beginning with limited capacity in a
3 mill that had to be adapted by degrees
a to the requirements of the Oxford Linen j
- mills, the business has grown to such
1 an extent that plans have been drawn
for half a dozen new buildings, all
t larger than the present main mill.
The plans call for an addition double
the size of the present main mill,
a new stock, storage and shipping
lt building, weave shed, "oxollnt" factory,
bleach house, and fiber preparing
n house. The two latter buildings will
be In the center of a quadrangle forme
ed by the other buildings mentioned.
j All the buildings will be of re-en[j
forced concrete. The new weave shed
g is to be a two story building, provided
f with overhead lighting by means of a ,
f saw tooth roof containing 375 skyt
lights. The power plant will be los
cated well away from the mill building

will be electrically operated. A stock

e The Oxford mill was the first es3
tabllshment In the United States to
e undertake the manufacture of linen
products fpom fiber prepared by the
s Mudge process. This accomplishes In
e a few hours the work that abroad requires
many weeks. Judging from
the extensions to be carried out by the

success of the undertaking.
