To Be or Not To Be

Ultra Violet Rays (COMMANDER Kenworthy, the British member of parliament tor Hull, is asking for the truth about ultra-violet rays. He states that he, personally, and many parliamentary colleagues have derived great benefit from the treatment. Yet, efforts are being made to undermine its value. In its latest report, the Medical Research Council has thought fit to de preciate the worth of the treatment. In spite of that, however, Commander Kenworthy points out that when Hull, in common with many other municipalities installed sunlight equipment in its public baths, it was an immediate success from the health point of view. It proved of remarkable value as a ‘tonic, particularly during the months when the citizens were deprived of natural sunlight, as well as being curative in the treatment of rickets, tuberculosis and other diseases. The Ministry of Health is being asked to conduct a full enquiry, but surely the proof of the pudding is in the eating.
