VORONOFF'S TREATMENT STRONG PROTEST MEETING Australian Tress Association—United Service. LONDON, 7th June. A meeting organised by the AntiVivisection Society crowded the Caxton Hall, and overflowed to next door. The speakers vigorously protested against Dr. Voronolf's experiments. Dean Inge, among others, wrote describing the experiments as monstrous, mid deprecating England's welcome to their originator. Miss Lindaf llagcby, who presided, said that Sir William Joynson-llicks, who welcomed Dr. Voronoft', was speaking on the Prayer Book. IC Britain became a race of demi-monkeys, the result of the Prayer Book controversy would not matter. Mr. George Arliss, the nut or, declared: "If Dr. Voronoff's ideas were carried out, this would be a world of devils, skulking about devouring people to prolong their own lives. Let us keep clean the bodies God gave us, ami not clip into messes brewed in Yoronoff's filthy kitchens." Tho Duchess of Hamilton said that tho Anglican Church had failed on this torible question, pleading that it could not bo involved in medical matters. Resolutions carried included a. protest against the revolting practice of grafting live monkey sex glands into men, women, and children, as being offensive against morality, hygiene, and decency.
