PNEUMONIA IS
DUE TO A Germ
Rockefeller Institute Doctors
Prove the Theory.
EXPERIMENTS ON DOGS.
Forty eight Were Used, and Forty two
Developed Disease just Like Pneu-
monia In Human Beinss-caneer Not
Due to a Parasite.

The Rockefeller institute announces
that it has succeeded at last in pro.
| ducing pneumonia experimentaliy
thereby proving, so the experts of the
institute say. thar pneumonia Is caused
by a germ, the pneumococcus. While
that has long been theory. there has
not been direct proof of it until now.
The institute experiments, made by
DR. IL. V. Lamar and Dr. S. j. Meltzer
or the Rockefeller laboratories. are de-
seribed in the Journal of Experimental
Medicine
All the experiments were made upon
dogs. The method consisted i'm inject
ing pure cultures of the organisms
taken from human patients into the
lungs of the dogs Forty eight animals
were used. In forty-two of the ami
mails pneumonia was produced by the
pneumococcus affections. Ten of the
dogs died. thirty-four We're killed with
In from one TO twelve days and four
several weeks after the injection.
Resembled Pneumonia.
"The fatal cases." say the experi.
menters, 'resembled closely lobar
pneumonia in man. In the non-fatal
cases the pathological and bacteriologi-
cal findings We're again in accord with
the findings in man. Clinically, how
ever, the cases of non-fatal expert
mental pneumonia run a milder and
shorter course than in man.
The dogs lungs were clogged lust
like pneumonia stricken human lungs.
The symptoms and autopsy findings
We're identical with those of human
pneumonia.

unborn chicks with cancer. The work
was done in the Rockefeller laborato-
ries. The doctors cut out a piece of
the eggshell, used hypodermic nee
die containing the cancerous fluid and
then sealed up the hole i'm the shell.
The eggs We're those of pure bloodeG
barred Plymouth Rocks.
Cancer incubation.
The doctors report that they succeed
ed in the direct incubation of cancer
of a fowl into the unmatched chick in
the shell and also into unborn pigeons
and ducklings, but they could not
transplant fowl cancer to an adult pi-
geon or duck, and cancer transplanted
from one variety of adult chicken to
another did not flourish.
DR.. Isaac Levin, Columbia univer-
sity investigator under the provisions
of the George Crocker Special Re-
search fund, reports that he is con
vinced, after experiments ON white
rats, which are remarkably resistant
to cancer, that the disease at the be-
ginning Is local, not constitutional or
general, and hence is not due to a
parasite.
Growth of cancer, concludes the
Crocker fund experimenter, is due to
a loss of equilibrium between the re-
pressiye power Of the soft glandular
cells and the Towering" power of the
cancer cells.
AS to the origin of the cancer cell
itself he announces no conclusion.
