SUPREME COURT.
ACTION AGAINST DOCTOR. (by TELEGRAPH —PRESS ASSOCIATION.) AUCKLAND, Aug. 14. In the claim against Dr. Dundas McKenzie, Dr. Bruce Mackenzie stated in evidence that he visited defendant in response to a general invitation to investigate Abram’s machine. Defendant promised to make some tests of blood submitted by witness, but after much delay defendant refused to carry-out-his promise, giving as a reason that witness was not an honest' investigator. Witness said the principle of the machine was that every’ disease had its special rate of radio-activity, and the claim was that the application of this rate would cure the disease. Other claims were made, such as that it could tell religion, sex, age, and paternity. He classed some of the claims as ridiculous nonsense. He arrived at the conclusion that so far as the method was said to rest upon a recognised scientific basis it was an .absolute fraud and hopeless.
