as always. entirely for my own amuse-
ment. But holding company, my
child, is q device which wicked big
business thought up at the end of the
last century as a means of accom-
plishing many things, one of them
being not to let the left hand know
what the right hand is doing; another
being to distribute the risks; another
being to make much out of little.
Nov take the Roosevelt family.
Take the President. The President is,
in his own words, which are not mine,
The head Of the Nation He is also a
gentleman farmer with an interest in
two things-agriculturea and large scale
forestry, both of which are directly
interested in the plans and programs
Of the Department Of Agriculture,
which is an operating company Of a
presidential holding company. AS an
agriculturist, forester and a Presi-
dent, his interests partly dovetail and
partly compete, which. If understand
the philosophy, is extremely vicious.
Jimmie and His Holding Company"
There's Jimmie. He is a little op-
Grating company all by himself and q
holding company inside holding COM
pany. The four-inch tail in this case
is a $4,000 year job as liaison Of
ficer between his parent and the cab
met, and could not prove it, but my
guess is that. what with this and that,
the four-inch tail gives the chief We
locity to his insurance business, in
which. whether he is an officer or not,
he has a direct or indirect control.
Then there are Elliot and Anna and
Franklin. who are brilliant illustrations
of the riSks-distribution idea. 1t looks
to me suspiciously like an interlocking
directorate between the New Deal and
the economic royalists, between I'm

disease is apt to be most prevalent
in cold weather.
When mice were 1noculated in
the nostrils with any Of the virus
preparations it was the custom to
shake the animals so that the dead
ly organism would have a chance to
spread over the nasal membranes.
When this was done with the fly
inoculations it was found that the
bacterial colonies previously placed
in the nose gave no protection.
When the mice were handled gently,
however, there was evidence of a
slight but definite protection.
While the results are quite def
mite, DR.. Armstrong warns against
reasoning from mice to men. The
animals have relatively much larger
noses than human beings, affording
a larger area of nasal membrane
over which the protection can be
exerted. On the other hand, rela-
lively enormous doses of the polio
myelitis and encephalitis virus sus-
pensions were flooded into the nos
trils-much larger doses than would
be encountered in nature.

Research Indicates Nose Colds
Ward Off Dreaded Diseases
Experiments With Mice Show Leucocytes
Called Into Effective Action

| concerned, there was no difference
between the two groups. For the
nose inoculations there was a re-
markable difference OF the treated
animals more than two thirds were
alive after two weeks. compared to
less than one-fourth of the
untreated.
The kinds of bacteria, DR.. Arm
strong found. made no difference.
At first he used the general mixture
ordinarily present in rat nostrils.
Then he grew colonies of four dis
tinct kinds out of the nasal con-
glomeration and also of the dreaded
diphtheria bacillus. There was no
noteworthy difference in results
when the experiments were re-
peated. He also repeated them with
flltrates of these bacteria in which
there were no living organisms.
These gave about the same degree
of protection.
Pursues Checking.
Another experiment was to make
rci>stl,re of the living bacteria and
the encepnalitis virus. This prep
aration. inoculated into the nose,
gave the animals the malady to
about the same degree as the
straight virus. The results could
not be due, he concludes, to any in
hibitOry action of the bacteria itself
on the infinitesimally minute virus
organisms. The mixture. in fact.
proved little more potent than the
straight virus preparation. He also
tried the experiment of spraying the
noses simultaneously with the bac-
terra mixture and the virus. No
protective value was found.
1t is known, however. that both
living and dead bacteria have a ten
dency to draw leucoytes to defend
the portals of the body, even if the
organisms themselves are not disease
causers. The blood cell army takes
no chances. When this was tested
with mice, the nostrils of which had
been washed absolutely clean. DR..
Armstrong found that very shortly
after the bacteria mixture was in
troduced there was an enormous
outpouring of these soldier blood
cells. Within two days he found
nearly 40 times as many in the nasal
Washings of the treated animals as
in those of the controls.
The theory of leucocyte action, Dr.
Armstrong reports. is strengthened
by inoculating with tetanus toxin
rats in the nostrils of which the
bacteria mixtures had been instilled.
1t is known that this has no leu
cocyte-attracting power He found
no protection whatever Actually the
toxin seemed to become more toxic.
Flu Virus Different.
Somewhat paradoxical results were
obtained with influenza virus. The
poliomyelitis virus makes its way
through the nose to the brain, but
the flu virus goes chiefly to the
lungs, which it can enter either by
way of the nose or the mouth. The

Found-a use for nose colds.

FOund-a use for nose colds.
The running noses which accom-
pany these and other common dis
eases of the upper respiratory tract
may protect man for several months
each year from some of the most
dreaded epidemic diseases due to
nlterable vi-,nses which invade the
brain and central nervous system
by way of the nasal membranes.
Experiments supporting this con-
clusion, although still open to de-
bate, have just been reported by DR..
Charles Armstrong of the National
Institute of Health. The defense
offered, however. is not for the dis
eases of the respiratory tract them
selves but for some of the mecha-
nisms of body defense which they
apparently call into action.
Winter Immunity" Noted.
The Public Health Service expert
ments started with the observation
that certain deadly epidemic diseases
caused by filterable viruses-espe-
cially infantile paralysis and sleep
Ing SickneSS-are rare in winter and
nearly always have their big out
breaks in warm months.
Rigidly controlled tests with mice,
however. showed that the tempera-
ture made no difference in the case
with which these animals contracted
encephalitis from nasal innocula-
tions or in the severity of the at
tacks which followed. 1t is known
that the nose is the chief road by
which both infantile paralysis and
sleeping sickness viruSeS reach the
central nervous system.
The only other notable difference
between winter and summer which
suggested itself is the increased gre
valance of reSpira tory tract dis
eases. such as colds, diphtheria and
scarlet fever, during the cold months.
These are usually accompanied py
running noses. The bacterial organ
isms causing the maladies call out
enormous armies of leucocytes, the
white cell soldiers of the blood
stream, to resist invasion.
Mice Given Colds"
Following up this clue Dr. Arm
strong washed the noses of some of
his mice and cultivated the bacteria
he obtained, mostly not disease pro-
ducers, until he had an enormous
supply of them He then dropped
some of his live bacteria prepara-
ton into the nostrils of experimental
mice several times during the course
OF a week, so that large colonies of
them would form on the nasal
membranes.
Two days after the last treatment
the mice were lnoculated with the
encephalitis virus. Some got inocu-
latlonS in the nasal membranes. and
some directly into the brain. SINH
lar lnoculationS were given control
mice which had not had the bac-
terra treatment.
