Warning By British Professor
London, July 17.
A warning against too much reliance on the effectiveness of drugs in the treatment of tuberculosis in the Colonies-was given at the Com- monwealth Health and Tuberculosis Conference in London.
It was given by one of Britain's foremost authorities on tubercu- losis, and one who has travelled widely in the Colonies, Professor F. R. G. Heaf, of the Welsh National School of Medicine.
He spoke at this morning's session of the conference which was entirely de- voted to an exchange of information on tuberculosis in British Colonial territories. Professor Heat was summing There was evidence, he con- appointed in the Colonial Office up a number of papers which tinued, that natives could with-indicated the Importance the had been read by Colonial health stand the disease as well as any-authorities attached to the offleers and

The Malayan Tin Bureau today denied charges by the Johnson Preparedness Sub-
Committee that Malayan tin producers tried to MORE AUSTERITY "gouge" the United States.
The Bureau Director, Mr Lynn Meekins, said in a statement: "Every reference to Malayan tin producers in this report is either unfounded or distortion of fact.”
Mr Meekins referred to the Sub-Committee's report yesterday denouncing foreign tin producers an ""prico gougers" and "economic buccaneers."
