A news item appeared in The Gazette yesterday in which a doctor takes exception to Christian Science as a healing agent. In his remarks to the Social Security Committee in Ottawa, the doctor is quoted as having said, "We should protect the taxpayers against paying out money for the kind of treatment some of us believe has no value and, I might say, against fraud."

A religion which has proved itself over a period of three quarters of a century capable of healing every disease known to the medical faculty, and which has made God-fearing people out of infidels, has restored wrecked homes, made thousands of individuals happy and successful, cannot by any means be a fraud, however much some people may misunderstand it and attempt to discredit it.
