M1SSOCLA, Mont. April 6.-Dr.
Hideyo Noguchi OF the Rockefeller
Institute, speaking before a con-
florence OF doctors for the discus-
sion OF Rocky mountain spotted fever,
announced last night the discov-
cry OF a protective vaccine against
spotted fever by using a harm
less mixture OF immune serum and
the virus OF spotted fever.
In the work on which DR..
NoSuchi presented his report, he
said he had departed from the
line OF thought ordinarily taken
by immunologists in the produc-
tlon or toxtn-antltoxin mixtures
inc departure consists in the
principle OF over-neutraIizinE the
virus rather than under-neutral-
lzing II. According to spotted
reVer experts and investiEationaI
workers. from all parts OF the west
in attendance at the conference.
the discovery OF DR.. NoEuchi is of
great significance TO scientists in
general
The discovery, however, does
not necessarily mean that the
spotted fever problem has been
solved. but that il Is a great step
Ill the ultimate overcoming or the
malady.
