HAVE NO FAITH IN FRIEDMAN "CURE Government Officials Make First Re port on Tuberculosis Vaccine To , Oonifnue Observaftlons. Washington, May 9.?The first au thenlo and political report of tho fed eral government's investigation of the Friedman tuberculosis vaccine made public here today declares the results of the public health service observa tions so far do "not justify that con fidence in the remedy which has "been Inspired by widespread publicity." The national association for the study and prevention of tuberculosis, be/ore which the report wos present ed, immediately and unanimously resolution declaring Its 'boflief that "no specific cure for tuberculosis has beon discovered that de?erves the confidence of the medical profession and the public," and declaring It to be the duty of the public to contlnuo ?"all the present well tried agencies." Express Disappointment. Although couched In the diplomatic terms of a governmental scientific document, the report on the Fried man "euro" expresses the disap pointment of the public health service at the conditions imposed by Frled mann; and says his declination to furnish complete Information con cerning his vaccine was not "satis factory from a scientific standpoint." The public health service, however, the report says, accepted his condi tions because of the great importance to thousands of sufferers and tho hope that a euro might be found. To Continue Observations. The report was made by Dr. Johns Anderson, director of the hygienic labratory, and Dr. A. M. Stimson, another public health service officer, who were designated by Surgeon Gen eral Blue to make labratory tests of the Frledmann vaccine and observe the 90-odd tuberculosis patients inoc ulated in New York. The Investigators point out that while Dr .Frledmann in his prelimi nary correspondence xjffered to lay fuil and Impartial information before tho government, ho declined to do so after coming here. Observations by the public health service will be con tinued, however, and the Investigators express the opinion that the patients already inoculated must look forward to a long period of treatment. ?
