Influenza Cure Sought in
Germ Cultures Discovered
Artificial Reproduction, Plan of
Health Service in United States
Medical Laboratory

Washington, Jan. 28IThe pub
lie health service today formulat-
ed plans to reproduce influenza
germs artifcially in an effort to
find a cure for the disease.
Surgeon General Cumming re-
quested the approximately 200 Of
ficers and employees of the service
here to notify the hygienic labora-
tory in case members of their fam
lilies showed symptoms of the di-
sease. Then, if the sufferers vol
unteer, the plan is to obtain germ
cultures from them.
Under the supervision of DIR. G.
w. Mccoy, director of the labora-
tory, DIR. Sara E.. Branham, bac-
teriologist, will take the cultures
from the nose and throat of the in
fiuenza sufferer, and reproduce
them in specially prepared media.
Organisms in the cultures will be
carefully tended as they are repro
duced. If the experiment is sue
cessful, public health officials said
today, it is probable that the or

inoculate animals with the disease.
The use of human subjects for
incubation with specially repro
duced organisms, however, was not
seen as probable development for
the near future. Officials said it
was a possibility, but that num-
Der of safeguards must be estab-
lished, and control conditions in
sured before this effort could be
made.
Influenza germs have been re-
produced, it was said, at the Rookie
Teller institute in New York since
the epidemic of 1918. They have
not been studied extensively, how
ever, and the actual cause of the
disease-the germ or germs which
produce it-has not been isolated.
The organisms reproduced from
cultures taken from sufferers, it is
thought, are filter-passing ane-
robes, or ultra-microscopic bits of
life.

Gasoline Tax Collection
Plan Fully Explained
Shows Why Boost in Rate Would
Bring Small Increase in 1929
Income

The statement bye. M. Babcock.
commissioner of highways, that a
four cent gas tax will yield the
trunk highway fund approximately
the same amount in 1929 as the
two cent tax yielded in 1928, has
been misunderstood by some peo-
pie not familiar with the method of
collecting the tax. An explanation
may make it clear.
The tax is computed on ship
ments coming in during each
month. Statements are mailed by
the state oil inspector on or be-
fore the 18th of the following
month. The oil companies then
have until the 18th of the next
month to make their settlements
with the state. If bill increasing
the gas tax is made effective May
1, the first statements based on the
new rate would go out shortly be-
fore June Is, and the oil compan-
les would have until July 16 to
pay the tax.
The amendment adopted last No
vember is already in effect and the
trunk highway fund at present is
receiving 1 1-3 cent per gallon. If
a four cent gas tax is adopted it
will receive 2 2-3 cents per gallon.
If it takes effect May 1 the trunk
highway fund would be getting 6
months at the 1 1-13 cent rate aand
six months at the 2 2-3 rate.
If the increase were adopted
early in the session and put in eff
feet March 1 or April 1, the trunk
fund might receive little more in
1929 than it received when it got
all the income from 2 cent tax,
but if it goes into effect later than
May 1, the receipts are likely to be
less than in 1928.
A Scent tax would yield the
state less in 1929 than 2 cent tax
yielded in 1928. In 1880 the state
would get no more from a cent
tax than it formerly got from 2
cent tax, and a a cent tax would
bring the trunk highway fund only
2-3 cents more per gallon than the
2 cent tax brought in 1928.
The state aid fund for second
airy roads will gain by an increased
rate, and the earlier it is put in

Moderation

There is wide difference he
tween the confidence which becomes
a man and the weakness which dis
graces a fool. He who never trusts,
is a niggard in his soul, who starves,
himself, and by whom no other is
enriched; but he who gives to every
one his confidence, and every one
his praise, squanders the fruit
which should serve for the encour-
agement Of integrity and the reward
Of excellence.-Sophia Patterson.
