DISCOVERY of new method
~ of preventing and curing
typhoid fever. one of the grave
diseases which especially
threaten humanity at this time,
has been revealed.
Medical scientists Of India,
engaged in war work, have
found a new way Of attacking
typhoid. il was announced by
DR.. S. S. Bhatnagar. in Nature,
London scientific publication.
A mysterious substance or
group Of substances has been
found which develops within the
human body chemical particles
that destroy the germ and the
poison Of typhoid fever.
The new substance has been
named vi-precipitinogen. When
il enters the living human body,
this substance speeds up the
production by the body OF its
police force onsisting OF
vi-antibodies, which are parti-
cles capable of anchoring and
destroying typhoid germs.
EOR prevention Of typhoid,
Il then, all one has 10 do is 10
inoculate a person with vi-pre-
cipitinogen. The body does the
rest 1t fills itself with vi-anti-
bodies.
During actual disease, the
same treatment helps. The in
jected substance helps the pa
tents body TO develop active

POLITICAL PARADE
BY GEORGE ROTHWELL BROWN

tee that he had no authority
other than the constitutional
authority he had outlined.
With regard to Lovett, the
elderly University of Chicago
professor, who is a cheerfully
admitted joiner of innumerable
Communist front organizations,
the comptroller general certainly
will cut off his pay if he hasn't
been nominated and confirmed
by Nov. IS.
IF HE should continue 10 func-
L tion as a government en-
ploye after that date, without
having been nominated and con-
firmed, he will run into a fed
eral law which makes it a felony
for anybody to serve the gov
ernment without pay.
Since he can neither draw pay
after Nov. Is, nor work for the
government after that date, how
will he be able 10 establish
claim for pay before the court
of claims? How does he propose
to carry an appeal to the Su-
preme Court?
Meanwhile, Congress will not
weaken. 1t will not appropriate
a thin dime for Lovett.

existing germs. So, the germs
are overpowered.
Studies have shown that as
the vi-precipitinogen increases
in the typhoid patients body,
the recovery is speeded up.
Until now, a very different
view as regards the defense of
the body against typhoid was
prevalent. The old view has
been that the blood serum of a
person recovering from typhoid
contains anti-bodies.
IT HAS been assumed that
Il these anti-bodieS, of the con-
valescent serum, themselves
fight the typhoid germs in a
new patient.
But. research showed that
the blood serum of persons re-
covered from an attack of this
fever contains very few of the
anti-bodieS. And. yet there was
no doubt that such serum cured
typhoid patients.
What was il, then, which
h aled the sick? Research
showed that il was the newly
found substance. vi-precipitino-
gen, that was effective; since it
enabled the patient to build up
his own resistance.
1t seems that the newly found
substance is produced when the
typhoid germs begin to perish.
II might be a substance which
is set free from the germ itself,
when il dies. However, so far
these details remain unexplored.
