Conservative physicians suggest that not until the babies hate reached maturity and have offspring will it be possible to present conclusive data. In brief, those who favor & moratorium point to ama- phylactic phenomena and say: “We are familiar with the immediate effects of vaceines and serums. but not always with the after-effects 10. 20. 30 vears la‘er.

Agricu engineers are asking simi- lar questions regarding the introduction of artificial fertilizers into the soil chiefly because there are so many by- products of industry utilized. Some go so far as to forecast a barren world be- cause we are “killing the principle of life that s in the sofl.” Scientists who suggest a moratorium anticipate that they will be called retro- grade. They deny the allegation in- dignantly. They want to progress. Bu they confess that at times thev are hesi- ant. They have a feeling their steps are so rapid that they would not have any time to draw back if they happened quicksands or a chasm. ’ ontinue on their road, but they would like to reconnoiter first.
