A Petitioner for Anti-Vivisection Leg- islation Gives His Reasons for Re- fusing to Withdraw His Signature. The interest that kas gathered about the subject of vivisection in view of poss: legislation by Congress prohibiting the practice in the District of Columbia shows no signs of lagging. A number of mem- bers of the medical and scientific fraterni- ties of Washington who are opposed to the bill have united in an appeal, individ- ually, by circular, to those who signed the petition to Congress in favor of the passage of an anti-vivisection bill. This circular asks the petitioners to divest themselves of prejudice and look at the question from the standpoint of the phi cian and man of ce, and if convinced that the proposed legislation is unneces sary to withdraw their names from th petition. The physicians urge that those who demand anti-vivisection laws are not informed as to the actual experimentation upon living animals, and that if they knew what constieration was shown for the e: emption of these subjects of experiment from suffering there would be less support for what the scientists regard as an un- called-for law. The doctors ask that in- vestigation precede legislation. ‘The circular says, among other things: “A remarkable circumstance in connec- tion with this subject is that the experts in all departments of scientific research are arrayed against this legislation, while other side are jurists, clergymen, of the army, gentlemen and ladies ent in social circles and charital rk, ete. “We firmly believe that this is due to th fact that those opposing the lexislation are better informed as to the methods em- ployed in experimenting upon the lower animals, the necessity for such expe ments and the valu of the results ob- and not to any indifference to pain inflicted in carrying out such experiments “We assert from positive know! anaesthetics are habitually employ the biological and pathological laly in this District when operation animals ainful expe are performe tion to that po: which prohil 0 far nt in inducing ‘ation. us to oppose ssumption t It is the in scientiiic research work ar less human se Not So engaged hut who pro! ly or indirectly from the results that iegisiation 1s required to cause them to adm etics for the prevention of pain should | cted to es by act of Congress, when are devoting their lives to (he ment of human knowledge and tor having in view the relief of suffering ard the prevention of diseases, while those who inflic greater pain upon the lower anlinals sport or for gain are not sul ilar legal restrictions.” The circular is signed by Dr. 8.

After de on on th of both the vcates and the op} of the bill, which discassion was partici pated In by you, the District Commission- brs rec ommended the passage of a bill reg- ulgting vi District. Upon # Second hearing the Senate committee fa- vorably reported a bill mere stringent than that recommended by the Commi: and that bill is now upon the S endar. “Under these circumstarces I assume that fluence those who are not informed the situation, and who may by one-sided statements. “As, however, it is very desirable that the general public should understand this question, and hat end can perhaps best be attained by newspaper discussion, I gladly respond to your letter, and pro- ceed to state why I cannot withdraw my n:me from the petition. What is Vivixection?® “Let us first understand what this peti- tion seeks to accomplish. Its object ts to put vivisection under the control of the law. But what is vivisection? Like many other words, its literal meaning does not adequately or precisely express what the can only your letter is intended to in- to be impressed term, as commonly used, signifies. A child is iiterally vivisected when its arm is scratched With a vaccine point. But if that alive in boiling water, or dropped from a height of twenty feet upon a pavement strewn with iron bars, so that its spinal column would b2 broken by the fall, it wovld in neither case be vivi- sected. “The signers of this petition mean by vivisection the torture of a conscious ani mal, whether this torture be inflicted by cutting, or crushing, or boiling, or baking. “Why should not the law forbid the tor- ture gf conscious animais? “You assign several reasons in answer to this quest’ “1.

At a recent commencement of a medical college in this city one of its pro who is also a subordinate of the present surgeon general, is reported to have ex- horied his students to experin lavishly in the hope of making some discovery which would bring fame to them. He told them to go elsewhere, if this bill should pass, in order that they might experiment uncontrolied by any “If vivisection were not p ed here in objectionable forms there would hardly be such opposition to this bill. “You assert from positive knowledge anaesthetics are habitually emplo. the biolcgical and pathological lai in this District, when painful experi operations are porte animals.
