LONDON,. 26th August:
1 Mr: ,Harold; Walter !Lcwe, of Parses, N.S.wi, previously; 'employed as a fireman' on the New South. Wales Railways, has passed through London from Geneva, and has sailed for'; his home in Australia. He has been under treatment; by. Mr. Spahlingerj and Ms apparent recovery from,tuberculosis after. partial vaccine treatment: has aroused considerable interest.! Before he sailed by the Sophocles he made a statement to the "British Australian and New Zealarider." He. was treated without success at several sanatoria in.Australia, including the Waterfall and Blue Mountains institutions. ; ''..'
• "Last year," he said, "I sailed by a French boat from Australia,' caught a cold in the Mediterranean on the way, and arrived at Geneva in a state of collapse. I.was,- in Geneva a month .before Spahliriger decided to treat me. I then weighed 67 kilos, but from the first injection I began to improve, until! gained weight. Six months later I weighed 75 kilos 700 grammes, gaining in that interval in aypirdupois nearly twenty pounds. In my opinion the'Spahlinger treatment is a positive cure; arid I have nothing but thd highest praise for both his scientific ability, and his. generosity. Spahttnger is' not only a great scientist, bent on healing suffering humanity's ills,..but a remarkable humanitarian as well.' He not only; gave me 7 free treatment out of the little 'store of vaccine he had at his, command, owing to his limited output, but he has paid a large part of my board arid found me in; pocket money. ;..';
"When Sir Littleton Grooms,;, the Federal Attorney-General of Australia, and Mr. Charlton, the Leader of the Federal Labour Party, came to Geneva last year to attend, the League of Nations Convention, my .case came under their notice, and I 1 secured a grant of £.10 a month for five months. This .represents, how-' ever, only a small part of ■ my .keep at Geneva; the' rest was,.paid by Spdhl'inger. , i,
ANY TES+ SOLICITED
"When I reach Sydney I shall bo prepared to go under aiiy medical test that private, State, or 'Common-' wealth dpctors care to suggest to demonstrate the cure. .Many doctors who have examined me in the past few months declare me 'to be free from tubercular germs." Among them were the five medical members of the House of Commons, headed by Dr. Watts, M.P., who recently reported on their visit to Spahlinger's> establishment. I was also examined by Dr. Blackmoro, of New Zealand; by Dr. Wonderleigh (?) and Dr. Wyllie, of South Australia," the latter. how of Whipp's Cross Hospital,/ London; by!three doctors from Ireland; by a native doctor from India; and by r niany other medical men visiting Gcnevai to. test, the effectiveness of the treat'nent. '. ■
.'•Formerly I .used to catch cold quite easily. To-day any very slight cold I get vanishes very quickly. Ten w:eks ago I was laid; up with influenza, and Dr. Trcschel, of Geneva, who came to see me along with Spahlinger, pronounced it epidemic 'flu.' I had a temperature of 104.4 on the Thursday, but with further injections completely recovered by Monday. Today I caii wain without the slightest trouble. If put to it, I could cover five miles an hour with an effort."
