BY the Associated Press.

Two canny veterans of Mid
western political wars-Senators
Norris, Independent, Of Nebraska
and Capper. Republican, of Kansas
pointed to the corn and wheat
belts today as major battle-ground
for the coming national election.
Senator Norris, veteran inde-
pendent who is subordinating OPP
position to a third term to support
President Roosevelt, said he would
return to Nebraska ito make some
speeches if Congress ever adjourns ="
Senator Capper, one of the Re-
publicanS to weather the 1886 Demo-
cratic landslides, said he was
confident that Kansas will go Re-
publican" and planned speeches
there in behalf of Wendell Willkie
and other Republicans.
Senator Norris said that the ex-
tensive speaking swing by Mr..
Willkie in the Midwest should help
the Democrats.
MY prayer is that the Democratic
party collaborate with Mr.. Wilkes
doctors to keep his voice in good
shape" the Nebraskan said. Il
want him to keep on talking"
Fiscal Record Cited.
Senator Capper contended, how
ever. that the third term issue is
gaining more and more importance
I think more votes will be changed
by this than any other issue. Lots
of people don't like the idea of a
third term. They think it's dan
gerous."
The Republican Senator said that
president Roosevelt's s bad record on
failure to meet ordinary govern
mental expenditures also has cost
him confidence of lots of people.
With a defense bill of $4,000 .OOO.-
600 to pay, the people are wonder-
ing"
Democratic leaders already have
opened an intensive vote drive in
the corn and wheat States under
Senator Lucas. Democrat, of Illi-
.nois with headquarters at Chicago.
The Democratic Senator de-
scribed the area as pivotal as he
began the campaign for the 172
electoral votes represented by Illi-

this malady in war years.


this malady in war years.
Like measles, influenza is a virus
disease. One attack produces anti
bodies in the blood which protect
the victim, for time at least,
against subsequent attacks. Now,
DR.. Francis reported, he and his
co-workers have found that another
type OF antibodies which destroy the
virus exists in the nasal secretions
OF nearly everybody. They were
found in the discharges from the
noses Of persons with bad colds or
with hay fever. Their numbers ap-
parently did not deepnd on whether
a person has suffered from inf1u-
enza in the past.
In the past efforts to find a spe-
ciflc remedy for influenza, as well
as other virus diseases, have been
directed toward some means of in
creasing the antibo1ies in the blood
itself. In some such diseases this
can be accomplished with the blood
OF recovered victims and in others
such as smallpox and new measles
with vaccines.
NOW, DR.. Francis said. attention
is being turned to finding some
means of increasing these antibodies

BY THOMAS X. HENRY,
Star Staff Correspondent.

PHILADELPHIA, Sept. 18-The
first successful vaccine against
measles, chief cause of death In the
Civil War and one of the leading
causes in the American Army in
the first World War, was announced
here today.
Like several other vaccines made
possible in the past two years, in
Guiding one against typhuS fever
which killed close to 20000,0 900 per-
sons in Eastern Europe Immediately
after the last war, it is matched"
in hens eggs.
The new vaccine was announced
before the bicentennial conference
of the University of PENNSYLVANIA
by DR.. Joseph Stokes, professor of
pediatrics at the university's medi-
| cal school, and DR.. Geoffrey Rake
of the Squibbs Institute, New Bruns-
| wick
While incubation against mea-
sles has been practiced in the past,
the results have been debatable.
One of the most successful treat
ments has been with the blood
serum of persons who have recently
recovered from the disease, but this
has been used only in cases Of actual

Caused BY ViruSes.

This virus was obtained by the two
doctors from the blood or throat
washings of children in early stages
of the disease. This was injected
| into unmatched chickens where it
| thrived. 1t was passed through 80
different eggs before being tested
first on monkeys and later on chill
! dren.
The experimenters found that the
! germs had become much less viru-
lent in this process. When children
were vaccinated with a preparation
made from the eggs they developed,
in some cases. very mild measles at

noticeable effect. But thenceforth

The crucial tests were made late
last spring in three New Jersey in

a Philadelphia hospital.
These vaccinated children. to-
gether with an equal number of
others who were not vaccinated,

the controls got the disease. Very
few of those who had been vacci-
mated developed the slightest symp-

explained. the vaccine can be
manufactured in vast quantities,
such as might be essential for mill
tary use. Also by a special drying
technique. it can be preserved for
long periods.
