stroyed more than TWENTY
FIVE MILLION HUM AN
LIVES.
Fewer than eight millions
were actually killed in the
wars battles, so that the deadly
germ just isolated" and
brought under scientific control
killed three for every one killed
by bullets, poison gas and all
the other deadly human killing
machines.
Mans efforts at wholesale
killing, with all his skill and
science back, Of them, are moth
ing compared with the effective,
deadly work of one microscopic
organism. of which thousands
might lie in the palm Of your
hand unseen.

the earth nearly six hours
yesterday.
The first and most severe
was recorded at Ills o'clock

THE Rockefeller Institute,
founded upon John D. Rookie
3eller's intelligent philanthropy
and maintained at his expense,
regardless Of cost, makes a
most important announcement:
The germ that causes the Span
tsh Influenza has been recog-
nized and Isolated" and that
most deadly of all plaques
knoaUn to modern history will
undoubtedly be brought under
control, as smallpox, diphtheriG,
typhoid and other plaques haze
been controlled.
VOU know something about
the deadly nature of the
Spanish influenza, a hideous
disease that seemed to come out
of the war like a deadly miasma
rising from the bloody battle
fields.
Excepting the "black death"
that in one attack killed nearly
half of all the people in Europe
long ago, the Spanish influenza
Is the most deadly Of all known
plaques.
The Washington times. [volume] (Washington [D.C.]) 1902-1939, 1923-02-04

sHOM TINS day the power and
attention Of science will be
concentrated upon the deadly
germ and upon the possibility
of combating it through the
"antitoxin" processes that are
the glory of modern medical
science.
The ablest men in Europe
and America, constantly study
ing, and freely imparting to
each other the results of their
studies, will attack the vicious
germ, so deadly to. the human
race, and conquer it, beyond
q doubt. With science, to
know and identify the enemy
Is the first great step.
MOST dramatic and fitting
Az was the announcement Of
the great discovery, worth more
to the human race than all the
gold fields and diamond fields Of
the earth. Science sent out
the message in the latest, most
scientific way, by radio,
through the ether, and the
news was simultaneously taken
through the air by scientific
men and institutions in cities
oil over this continent and in
Europe.
A deadly, living, disease
carrying unit Of creation, SO
small that the microscope
lacked mower to reveal it, is
isolated" and identified at
last, and the waves of ether,
that mysterious substance"
known only theoretically to sci
ence. carry the great news over
the earth-two miracles in one.
A ND bear this in mind, for 1t
"A interests you: The discovery
is the result of accumulated
money-the unlimited power of
wealth-used intelligently and
benevolently. (There is much

is far from intelligent, far from
