wanted.
Then a dificulty presented itself. Mr. Cosada's lawyers discovered a provision in the criminal law which says. "A person who inflicts upon"]
· himself an injury in order to ohmin alms or any chariable relief is guilty, of felony. In addition to expert sur- geons, it now appears that Mr. Cusada requires the services of some leading lawyers before he ear-grafting ex- periments are concluded,"
