DOCTOR'S PANTS WRECKED//

FIRMS SEND K. C. FROM AUSTRALIA

NINE DAYS' ARGUMENT BEFORE

PRIVY COUNCIL

Litigation over underpants which an Australian doctor contended had caused him to suffer from dermatitis -a form of skin disease—has cost something approaching £20,000.

Mr. Wilbur Ham, K.C., a' famous Australian bar- rister, travelled to England to argue the case before the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council--the high- est judicial tribunal in the. British Empire-which found in the doctor's favour.

The costs of these final proceedings; which lasted nine days, are alone éxpected to amount to about £10,000. Dr. Richard Thorold Grant, of Adelaide, South Australia, claimed damages from the Australian Knitting Mills, Ltd., manufacturers of under- wear, and John Martin and Co., the retailers, who sold him the pants.

The Supreme Court of South Australia awarded Dr. Grant £2,450 damages and costs, but the two firms appealed to the High Court of Australia, which found in their favour.

For the hearing before the Judicial Committee of the Privy Council, the Australian firms had briefed Mr. Wilbur Ham and three English counsel, with Mr. Wilfrid Greene, K.C. (now Lord Justice Greene), as leader. Dr. Grant's case was argued by two barristers.

The committee had bafore them 370 pages of printed matter re- labing to the evidence and judg-] meinta of the courts below.

Proceedings before the Supreme Court of South Australia lasted 21 days, there being three barristers on one side and two on the other. The issues were regarded as of such Importames that numerous experts doctors and chemists-- were called to give evidence.

The samo five counsel were on- gaged to argue the, case before the High Court of Australia.

Therd were 44 points of appeal, and the hearing Insted six days.

Berlin, Nov. 5.

An Aryan need. fear no risk of "racial defilement" if he accepts a transfusion of blood from a Jow.

Professor Loeffler, of the Radi- cal Department of the Nazi Party, declares there is no foundation for the belief that such a trans- fusion would affect the Aryan's] "purity of race."

He remarks that persons guilty of sprending such an idea as that. Jewish blood is not permissible for transfusions may cause damage to the health of the people since it might result in unnecessary res- trictions at a moment when quick | nction was essential.-Exchange.
