GIFT OF FOUNDERS SON
W. E. Herring Opens Way TO
Fight Possible Recurrence
of Epidemic
GIFT OF FOUNDERS SON

Plans are being formulated today by
the faculty of Hahnemann Medical COL
lege for the use Of It's gift OF 100000
for research work in connection with
the fight against influenza.
Tho money has been provided by
Walter F. Herring. president of the
Globe Ticket Company and son OF DR..
Constantine Herring, founder OF Hahne-
mann
Announcement of the establishment
of the fund was made at meeting Of
the Homeopathic Medical Society by DR..
William F. Baker, a member of the
college faculty. The success OF the
homeopathic school OF medicine in the
treatment of influenza cases was cited
as a reason for the gift.
Mr.. Hering's attention was attracted
last October by the widespread mortal
ity among persons afflicted with influ-
enza. At that time the disease was {
its height Thousands were dying, and
physicians everywhere were unable to
devote any time TO research work be-
cause of the need for their services
among the afflicted.
There was then nothing known about
the disease except what consequences
ensued when persons were stricken. In
fuenza being highly toxic ailment.
discovery of an anti-toxin baffied medi-
cal men.
During this time, according to Doctor
Baker, not more than one-half OF l per
cent of the cases treated by members
of the Homeopathic School of Medicine
resulted fatally.
Pleased at the success of the school
of medicine OF which his father was the
pioneer, Mr.. Herring determined to es-
'tablish a fund for research work in in
f1uenza at the institution, founded by
his parent. Announcement of his gift
was made last night.
The conclusions reached at Hahne-
mann College from time to time during
tho next several weeks will be sent TO
the different schools of homeopathy
throughout the country. The main idea
in doing considerable research work now
is to stave off a recurrence of the epi-
demic this spring. Every precaution
will be taken to prevent this, and all
results determined by physicians who
are engaged in the research work at the
college will be carefully tabulated and
distributed
In speaking of the Herring fund, Doctor
Baker said that while it Is not as large
as the Rockefeller Foundation contri-
button. which was made for a similar
purpose, at the same time results in the
particular field in which the money will
be expended will amply Justify the
benevolence Of the giver.
