HERE’S MORE ABOUT INFLUENZA STARTS ON PAGE ONE proved ineffective, however, as the Physician failed to evolve an anti- toxin. ‘There ie a possibility that the re discovery is not as far ad- vance as those carried on here four associates, Dr, Flexner reported that the germ had to be magnified a thousand tims before it was visible, |but the bacillus discovered here was |magnified 250,000 times before it could be studied. Dr, M. L. Herzig believes that an jantitoxin might result from the dis- the announcement that It has really uncovered the cause of the disease.

J, Whitacre, Tacoma. ‘You will remember that the germ was reported found two or three times during the war, but in each tnstance {t was not." Dr. Charles F. Engels, Tacoma city health officer, hopes that the announcement will prove true. “It will be of tremendous impor. tance in alding scientists in mak- ing a vaccine to combat this dis- ease,” he said. “No false hopes should be raised that n cure has been found for influenza, for it may take a long time, even if the germ has been Isolated, as reported.” Dr. W. D. Penny declared that he was anxiously awaiting further word thru the scientific journals of Dr. Flexner’s discovery. Other local physicians expressed hope that the reported announce- ment may prove true. All declared that Dr. Flexner is the highest pos- sible authority in medical science.
