HIGH PRAISE FOR NEW ZEALAND AMERICAN’S IMPRESSIONS Dominion Special Service. Auckland, March 10. “While medical research work in New Zealand Is rather limited, I find that the work of the profession is of the very highest standard," said Dr. F. E. Wiedemann, of Indiana, who Is returning home by the Aorangi after a visit to the Dominion and Australia. Dr. Wiedemann, who has travelled in many countries making observations of medical advancement and the conduct of hospitals, spent a week in the North Inland before going to Australia. “I met some of the leading medical men, and I found them to be just as well versed in surgical and medical matters as those I met In Europe,” said Dr. Wiedemann. “In New Zealand there' is little more conservatism in surgical work than in America, but this I think is an admirable quality.” In both New Zealand and Australia the hospitals seemed to be splendidly equipped, and surgical work was being done under the highest scientific conditions, said Dr. Wiedemann, who was impressed by the work done at Rotorua Sanatorium, which he said deserved all the publicitiy possible, not only in the Dominion, but In other countries. The waters at Rotorua had very strong curative properties.
