NATIONAL REPRESENTATIVES — Alaska Newspapers, 1411 Fourth Avenue Bldg., Seattle, Wash., TB IMMUNIZATION? It has been known for many centuries that some d the same person twice, Even before our modern scientific day of medicine, attempts were made to obtain immunity from smallpox by arm- wm vaccination whereby a healthy person would »w himself to be infected with smallpox as a means of protection during an epidemic. Then Pasteur with his experiments gave science the reason why immunity often follows infection. He fowl with a stale culture of chicken ases never a inoculated a cholera. The fowl recovered. When he tried to inoculate the fowl,with fresh, virulent material he failed and concluded rightly that because the first germs were stale they weren't strong enough to kill t were potent enough to immunize Vaccines usually consist of dead germs, but also sometimes the germs feebly alive—feebly because of the k involved if they are fully alive. One way scientists have of enfeebling germs is to breed them in a culture tube generation after generation. It was in this way that Dr. Albert Calmette of Paris ob- tained a tuberculosis vaccine which is known Bacillus Calmette-Guerin, or BCG. Some good results have been obtained in immunizing the body against tuberculosis through BCG, although through labora- tory carelessness of virulent strain of BCG was given to some children in Lubeck, Germany, 12 years ago, and 68 died Washmgln are ris as nagan of Virginia, band’s payroll at $1400 a year Because of the risks that come with using live germs, dead ones have often been used with success. Usually the germs are killed by heat and a chemical change occurs, sometimes not affecting the immuniz- ing properties of the germs—but more often it does, scientists claim. Experiments have been made in late years of suffocating tubercle bacilli to death in the hope of obtaining a vaccine which would be more effective than BCG but safer. Dr. Truman Squire Potter of the University of Chicago has now picked up a clue with results that seem to be of high importance. He immunizes animals against a particular type of tuberculosis (cow, bird or human) with a vaccine of the precise corresponding type. Before, experiments usually had been con- ducted with bacilli of the cow or bird type. He used the human type. In his latest experiment he used 66 healthy rabbits. Half were given the immunizing vaccine. Half were used as controls. Only four of the immunized rabbits succumbed to tuberculosis after having been inoculated with virulent germs. Twenty-five of the controls con- tracted tuberculosis and three died. So far, no beings, but Dr. tests have been made on human Potter believes that evidence so far of suffocated tubercle bacilli ought to be effective in human tuberculosis under some conditions, just as in animal tnberculosis. (Cincinnati Enquirer) In an address before the American Association of | Motor Vehicle Administrators in St. Louis a short | time ago, Pyke Jchnson, President of the Automotive | Ssafey Foundation, stated in a clear, the reasons why the next few months will be critical ones in the conservation of the United States rubber supply. The critical period, Mr. Johnson declared, | Ireally is just beginning. The rubber not be regarded with ‘“complacency or he asserts. Mn Johnson told of the large stock of crude rub- ber which was on hand when Pearl Harbor cut off sources of supply. He said, too, that there was a situation can- indifference, sale and retail outlets. “The problem, then, get into production of synthetic rubber fast enough so that before the tires wore out and the inventory | of crude was exhausted, we could carry on with | synthetic.” “In that kind of a schedule,” he continued, “the | eritical period obviously comes during the time when inventories begin to run low and the synthetic pro- duction is not yet enough to supply minimum needs.’ We are now at that point, the speaker told his audience. We must continue to hold enough in re to meet unforeseen obstacles for, as he expressed it, “a breakdown in essential highway movement because | of a tire famine is inconceivable.” Mr. Johnson insists that the public feeling for rubber conservation must be maintained at a high level, and not allowed to lag as a result of over-rosy statements relative to the success of the synthetic program. The program, he infers, is a success—but the time for crowing will not be here until the present, and possibly px nlon"ed pcuod of cr Gnrl Scout Bond , is on her Me"-'.
