ABRAMS TREATMENT.
INVESTIGATION - OF CLAIMS. _j (By . Telegraph.—Press Association.) WELLINGTON, Wednesday. The Minister of Health was asked by Mr. J. A. Lee whether his Department had done anything to investigate the claims for the Abrams treatment, so as to ensure the community deriving any possible benefits from the treatment if the claims made for it were sound, and so prevent the pufalic being imposed upon if the claims made were extravagant and unwarranted. Sir M. Pomare replied that numerous independent authorities in various countries, including New Zealand, had during the past few years endeavoured to investigate the'" "Abrams" system. Reports of a . large number of " these investigators had been received by the Health Department, and the consensus of opinion is that the claims made are extravagant and unwarranted on the evidence available. Medical officers of the Health Department support this opinion.
