Overview

From the Introduction. THE following are the statements of various remonstrants to proposed legislation to further restrict experimentation upon animals for medical and biological purposes in the Commonwealth of Massachusetts. They were called out at the legislative hearings upon this subject in the spring of 1901. The agitation in favor of such further restriction has been carried on for several years, and the views of the remonstrants are nowhere to be found in print. Many of the friends of research have expressed a wish to have some document to which reference may be made for the facts in the case, and it has therefore been decided to publish this book. It contains, not a shorthand report of what was said at the hearings, but the main points of what was so said, with additions from some who were not heard for lack of time, or because of absence from the country. The writer has, in each instance, corrected his manuscript immediately before publication. It is hoped that the statements that follow will be of value in placing the matter of experimentation upon animals, for purposes of teaching and investigation, in a clearer light before those interested in the subject.
