The researches, DR.. Leonard ex-
planned. were started by using re-
sorcinol, a substance very similar to
carbolic acid in molecular structure
and also poisonous, as a base. 1t was
found that when certain chainlike
groups of atoms known as fatty acids
were linked up to a resorcinol mole
cule the germicidal power of the sub
stance was increased, while at the
same time its poisonous effect on
animals was lessened, and these ef-
fects were found to increase steadily
a. longer chains of atoms were used.
Dr. Leonard said that in the face of
many difficulties the work has gone
on, seeking to add chains of ever
increasing length to the resorcinol
molecules. The goal was finally
reached when a chain containing six
groups was successfully linked up.
At this point DR.. Leonard found that
the poisonous qualities of the anti
septic reached a minimum, while its
germicidal powers reached their
maximum.

BALTIMORE, Md, February IL
Inc discovery Of a new antiseptic
used recently in Johns Hopkins Hos
pital here to clear pu long standing
infections of the kidneys and urinary
tract, was elaborated upon at the
Johns Hopkins School of Hygiene and
Public Health yesterday. following a
preliminary announcement of the dis
covery by a medical journal. The
new antiseptic, named hexylre-
sorcinol, is said to be so times as
strong as carbolic acid in its power
to kill disease germs, and yet SO
harmless to man that it can be
swallowed without injury.
DR.. Veader Leonard, chairman OF
the clinical committee on internal
antisepsis of the National Reserch
Council, who developed the germicide
in the Hopkins laboratories, said that
he and his associates had spent 10
years in research to perfect it,
First Tried ON Rabbits.
He first fed the antiseptic to
rabbits, Dr. Leonard said. When the
animals showed no Ill effects, he
swallowed some of it himself and
was not harmed. Assured of It's
harmlessness, he and six men who
were working with him began tax
ing daily doses of increasing size
to study its effects in the body.
1t was then that the antiseptic was
applied for the first time by Dr.
Leonard to the actual treatment or
disease. In some cases, infections or
the kidneys which had been OF long
standing were cleared up in As hours,
according to the records. The cures

guilty of murder and are serving
terms in the penitentiary now.
Walter Allen was found guilty of
treason and sentenced to the peni-

under bond pending an appeal. The
trials here ran until November, 1922.
