On this 1st day of April, 1920, before me, the subscriber, personally
came C. D., known to me, who, being duly sworn, declared that the

of the disposition of all animals experimented upon in the
laboratories of the Carnegie Institute, during the quarter-year ending
March 31, 1920, to the best of his knowledge and belief.

It is exceedingly probably that no young physician or medical student
could testify to cruelties witnessed in any physiological laboratory,

venture to speak freely of what he has seen. Some men have thus

NOW THEY REMAIN IN MY MEMORY AS A NIGHTMARE."
