DIPHTHERIA INCIDENCE
PROTECTING CHILDREN
Statements made by leading medical men should cause parents to carefully consider the question before submitting their children to the risk of such injections. Dr. Ulric Williams, N.D., M.8., Ch.B., Wanganui, says: "In the name of justice, truth and good health, I earnestly beg you not to allow your children to be inoculated against diphtheria. This practice is actively dangerous, and worse than useless. The only way to prevent disease ef whatever kind is to obey the laws of good health." In 1936 Dr. Harris, Minister for Health in Victoria, Australia, in The Voice, Tasmania, wrote: "You can state, anywhere, at any time, that I did say publicly that on no account would I risk my own children's lives by having them immunised." If you want facts write P.O. Box 647, Auckland branch of the British Union for Abolition of Vivisection. (Ad.)
