Dr. Adolph Lorenz to-day explained that he-not only came to America this time to extend the hand of friendship to American cripples, but to extend the same sturdy fist to all America and to, In a measure, thank America for what its people had done for his own country. He also sald he wished to dispel the idea that he had come to the United States posing as eu- Perior to American surgeons and lauded American orthopedic surgeons. “Why am I here?” asked the eman- Mrs. Stillman as At Divorce Hearing Yesterday Photographed Especially for The Evening World by a Staff Photographer, cipator of cripples. “I am here, of course, to extend the helping hand of friendship to helpless cripples, little and big. And in so doing I desire to extend the same friendly han :lasp to all of America for what she has done and is doing for my own country. 1 id not come here in the pose of a supertor to American surgeons, but to Interchange ideas with them and to advise them of my methods. 1 also wish to appeal to all cripples in this | country to seek advice from their own countrymen. “If any one has a crippled nie or knows of a crippled child it is h or her duty to consult with an American surgeon, The clinics of American orthopedic surgeons aun any in the entire world, and amazed at tho hundreds of ‘igupssde of cases who I hear are seeking my services who have never sought the advice or services of their own American surgeons. To-day I saw| ® patient who had been crippled for twenty years who could have been cured eighteen years ago. He lived all these years without seeking the advice of American surgeons. “My American colleagues are (he equal to any in the world and I have learned much from them. I rather feared when I came that I woifld bo interféiing with their work. Now I realize. I am promoting their inter-| ests, ‘The great mystery to me is why thousands of crippled cases have not ggne to American surgeons. Should-I perform ail the operations 1 am Asked to do in one hospital, T would be busy ‘or twelve months steady, I have many new ideas and can apnounce that many “incurable cases” can be cured: “If my visit will do but a \ little to promote a reconciliation between Ameriéan surgeons and my country- men I shall feel that it has not been in vain, When they expelled me from | American Orthopedic Association | 1 did not take it as a personal men ure at all, It was purely, I am sur war measure. I am not offended the least.” Dr. Lorenz said he felt much better and quite rested, though he still showed the effects of the three faint- ing attacks which overcame him yes- terdaY morning while examining patients at the Hospital for Joint Diseases, Madison Avenue and 123d Street.
