II any of these theories of interplanetary germ
exchange be definitely established they may
answer many questions that puzzle medical men
about the great epidemics OF history.
Today, with planes fitting from continent to
continent in few hours IL Is easy enough to
understand how some diseases might spread rap
pidy. But in primitive times when few men uav-
eed in lifetime the distance that some commut-
ers travel daily, Affections seemed TO appear
almost simultaneously in widely separated parts
Of the known world
Germ bearing meteorites would explain this
phenomenon Sir Richard Gregory, noted British
scientist estimates that not fewer than 400 100000
of these meteors, some only the size of fleck of
dust, strike the earths atmosphere daily.
When the smaller pieces come into our atmoS-
phere, at speeds of many miles per second, the
friction generates much heat that they flare
up and become puff OF gas. IT is this brilliant
incandescence that makes humanity call them
shooting stars
ANY germs that these fragments might contain
would, of course, be destroyed even though some
organisms can demonStrably withstand almost
much heat cold But the larger meteorite
particles either continue on through 10 the earth
or, in most cases explode.
IN EXPLODING, they act much like bombs, scat
] tering small bits OF themselves over an area
of several miles. These minute fragments then
float slowly to the ground. And, tiny as they
are each flake could harbor enough bacteria to
kill thousands of persons
But when the nature of the cosmc cloud
changes or when stray fragments from comet
arrive from the void different kind of bacteria
would be deposited in our midst. Scientists believe
this might explain how we happen 10 have so
many different forms of anmalcua-why some
kinds of germs for example, have TO have oxygen

with IT, New forms Of plant life too, might arrive

A pulling phase OF the interplanetary germ
theory is the fact that germs are known that
can survive bombardment by primary and sec
ondary cosmic rays at least until these rays
have been tanned by the earths atmosphere.
That is where quick freezing comes in For
science has found that If freezing can be induced
fast enough, the fluid in the germ cells enters
vitreous state, in which it is still liquid with
the properties of a solid.
Other experiments have shown that organisms
in which life has been suspended by such
process can endure amazing amount of abuse
Piercing radiations which found beyond

in its normal form, might well prove harmless

At the University of Bonn, in Germany, be-
fore the war; animals in latent state were sub
jected for days TO radatons from X-ray tubes
which would have killed them in three minutes
under normal circumstances
In another test no less flier than Charles A.
Lindbergh took several forms of bacteria high
into the stratosphere he could fly, and exposed
them TO whatever radiations might be present.
When he returned to earth, microscopic exam
nation determined that the bacteria were just
active ever.
Even the best of modern research has been
unable to account for the sudden appearance and
amazing spread of the influenza virus. If such
a malignant organism existed our earth the
early part of this century, psychologists are
able TO understand why IL did not make its pres
ence known in the form Of earlier epidemics.
1t is a recognized medical fact that the human
system can build up an immunity against most
germs. The germs of the common cold which

Yet they can be lethal to forms of life which
are new to them, as experiments frequently have
shown and as II. G.. Wells brought out in his ia.
nous war of the Worlds in which invaders
from Mars were able to resist all weapons, but
succumbed to the little germs that merely give
us a running nose.
There are no indications that the bubonic
plague or Black Death, existed on our globe
previous to the fourth century before Christ.
Then, suddenly and nexplicably it appeared spo-
radically in widely separated areas.
DURING the last visit of Halley's comet in
- 1910, its tail swept the earth, and there was
speculation as TO what the result might be.
Nobody advanced the theory that the tail might
contain bacteria as well dust germs, nor is
there any scientific proof that ii did.
Yet in the years Immediately following there
was a wave of Spanish influenza that swept the
United States well as Europe.
This, like the present milder wave of the same
disease, attributed to- conditions arising from
Still, it is possible that scientist of the
future, pursuing the line of research suggested by
Profs Bachman and Landmark, will prove the
existence of bond between comet and epidemic.
1t will be up TO other future scientists, if they
can, TO devise some kind of defense that will
protect from the commandments of these deadly
missiles from other worlds.
Meantime. humanity can extract some bitter
comfort from the certainty that IL we are being
pelted with germs from other planets so, too, are
broadcasting germs which our planetary
neighbors no doubt find just unpleasant to
them as are theirs to us.

particles which come to our earth from the inter.
liar regions and perhaps from beyond the Dor
hs OF our Milky Way system. I'm route they
could pick up any infntesimal hitch-hiker that
happened TO be floating around.
The 15mie thick buffer of air that surrounds
our globe protects us from the harmful effects of
many rays and may also slow them down suf-
ficfently TO bump off their hitch.hikers, II any.
But Professor Bachman points out that germs
winch reach the fringe OF our stratosphere might
just as well be in our noses and threats, because
the air will carry them.there eventually.
Other scientists have demonstrated that some
organisms could survive the hazards of such
ride through frozen stellar space.
At the University of Leyden in Holland, where
the Nobel Prize scientist, Professor Kamerlingh
Onnes. maintains his famous cold laboratory, vari.
forms OF organisms have been immersed in
TASKS of liquid air for close 10 two years at $50
degrees below zero And when they emerged they
were just alive ever. This cold approXimates
the temperature of stellar space ranging from
$40 to 459 degrees below zero
Professor b. J. Luyet OF the st. Louis Univer-
sity School Of Medicine, believes that the secret
of preservation of an organism in extreme cold
is quick freeZing-the same sort of process which
is already being used TO protect fruits and vege-
tables from decay and bring them 10 your table
virtually fresh when they were harvested.
Experiments have shown that organisms in which
life has been suspended by quCk-freeZng can
survive incredibly low temperatures.
This resistance 10 cold is VITAL whether the
germ rides on wave, DR.. Bachman believes,
or comes here in a meteorite, Prof landmark
theories. We think of meteorites as being UNI
bearaby hot, and they are when they first
strike the earth. But the heat generated by
friction is all the outside. After all, the trip
through our atmosphere is only matter of
seconds. A few minutes after meteorite lands,
the internal cold overcomes the heat and the
exterior is likely to be covered with frost
- MOTHER exponent of the meteorite travel
theory is Professor Charles b. Lipman of the
University of California. He has collected meteor
tie fragments thoroughly sterized them the
outside, then ground them up and put them in
special culture dishes to favor the growth Of any
bacteria that might be present.
And bacteria grow in those dishes. Professor
Lipman thus is positive that life from another

tragedy long before our little ball Of matter known
