WOULD NOT USE THERAPY IF KING HAD TUBERCULOSIS.
LONDON, December 17. The latest report from the Palace states that there has been no change in his Majesty’s condition since the evening bulletin was issued. The “ Daily Chronicle’s ” medical correspondent says:—“lt is noteworthy that tonic ultra-violet rays are harmful in cases of consumption. There has been a suggestion that underlying the empyema from which his Majesty is suffering, there might be a focus of tuberculosis. This is definitely negatived by the use of the rays. If there had been a suspicion of tubercle the rays would have not been used.” The London Light Clinic was founded two years ago, through the aid of gifts exceeding £200,000, by an anonymous philanthropist.—Australian Press Association.
