Newly Found Powder
May Bring Influenza
Immunization
Discovery Nay Result
In Preventing Epidemic
Such as in 1918
By the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
BALTIMORE, Jan. la little dry
powder that may be the first step
toward immunizing human beings
against influenza was described yes
terday to the American Society Of
Bacteriologists.
The potent stuff-one-tenth of a
milligram kills a rabbit-opens a
path toward warding of such 4 war
time epidemic of influenza as killed
untold thousands in 1918.
From one type Of influenza bac-
terra, DR.. Rene J. Dubos Of the hos
pital Of the Rockefeller Institute for
Medical Research, New York, de-
veloped dry, stable, soluble powder
Of the toxic substances which those
bacteria produce This powder Is
free Of bacteria itself.
Rabbits Immunized.
Minute injections Of dissolved
toxin immunized rabbits, made them
completely resistant to the live in
auenza bacteria.
The toxin, as yet produced only
in small quantity. has not been tried
on human beings, DR.. Dubos said,
nor even on swine, which are suscep-
tible to influenza epidemics like men.
But it is a significant step toward
an anti-toxin for human beings.
One theory, DR.. Dubos said, Is
that the 1918 epidemic was caused
by both a filterable virus and bac-
terra, with the virus possibly respon-
sible for swift spread Of the d.
SeaSe.
A previous investigator has found
that either the virus or bacilli alone
produced only mild influenza in
swine. but that together they teamed
to cause q lethal epidemic.
Scientists Make Report.
First proof of disease organism
that affects both animal and plant
worlds was reported by DR.. Armin
c. Braun and r. P. Elrod Of Prince
ton, N. j., research workers Of the
animal and plant pathology depart
ment. Rockefeller Institute.
This organism, pseudomonas aeru-
ginosa, found in the soil. can be
transferred from plants to human
beings and animals and from ami
mails to plants.
In human beings it creates an in
fecticn. It can kill small animals.
In plants it produces rotting.

CREDIT UNION

*There being no banking facili-
ties provided for Greenbelt, a
group of pioneer families put their
heads together and decided to or
ganize credit union. The organi-
rational meeting was held on De-
cember %, 1887, and officers were
elected for one month only. At the
first annual meeting, held on jan
uary 10, 1888, all Of these officers
were reelected. At the close of the
first year, there was a share
balance of $1,000 and a loan bal
ance of $4,000, with total assets
amounting to $6,175.a There is now
a share balance of $32,950 and a
loan balance of $25,500. Total
assets amount to approximately
$4,000.
The annual meeting of the
Greenbelt Credit Union which
will be held in the school auditor
ium Monday, January 10, 1912,
at 500 P. M, will mark the end
of four years work. By all stand
ards, success has crowned the
efforts of those pioneer families
who sought to give Greenbelt
adequate banking facilities.
The meeting will be open to all
residents of Greenbelt and any
resident may take part in any dis
cussion during the evening. Only
members in good standing, how
ever, will be allowed to vote. A
member, to be in good standing,
must have only fully paid $500
share. This is an excellent oppor-
tunity for new residents to become
acquainted with the purposes and
personnel of their Credit Union.
| might add, too. that the Credit
Union has been the stork's right
hand man in Greenbelt. The Credit
Committee, which has its regular
meeting night, is often available
in emergencies, and many a Green
belt baby has been born with a
loan application clenched in his
front teeth-almost!

Office Hours
To the Editor:

To the Editor:
In reference to a letter appear
ing in last weeks Cooperator, OBJ
jecting to the change in office
hour schedule at the Health Asso-
citation, may we again remind the
people of Greenbelt of the reason
for the new arrangement. AS
stated in a previous issue of the
Cooperator, the new ruling is not
peculiar to this community and
has been made only in the interest
of our defense program. In accord
ance with the request of the De-
tense Board of the metropolitan
district, the Prince Georges
County and the District of Colum-
bia Medical Societies unanimously
ruled that no physician in the
Washington area should hold office
hours after 6 P. M. The effects of
this ruling, among others, are
that it leaves the doctors available
for the maintenance of the Emer-
gency Medical Program, instruct
ing evening classes in First Aid,
ETC., and it eliminates the con-
fusion which results from holding
office hours simultaneously with
an air raid alarm.
1t may be pointed out that since
the onset of the war, the total
number Of office hours at the as
sociation has been increased,
rather than decreased. In spite of
the restrictions imposed by the
present emergency, we are sure
that you will be able to make
satisfactory appointment by call
ing the Health Association Offices.
Appointments may be made for the
Saturday afternoon hours by
patients who can not see the
doctor at any other time. A COM
plete schedule will be distributed
in the near future.
