promised in new methods today
of making the drug from plenti-
full raw materials.
The producers get it from Goa,
tar. yeast, yams, soy beans ano
cholesterol, a fat-like material ir
animal bodies.
Three new methods, all brilliant
chemical achievements, were an
nounced in the Journal of the
American Chemical Society py
scientists of Harvard uniyersity
and of Merck & Co., Railway, N. j
Cortisone is made naturally BY
adrenal glands. AS a medicine, il
relieves rheumatoid arthritis ano
helps against rheumatic fever
some allergies and eye diseases and
many other ailments.
The medical supply so far has
depended upon making it from
cattle bile. That source of sup
ply is limited and cortisone has
been one of the worlds most
sought-after drugs.
The new methods can tap in
exhaustible sources of supply. II

ly feasible. They may in time
result in lower prices of cortisone
Two new processes can get cor
tisone from chemicals called
steroids obtained from yeast, yams
or soybeans, or from cholesterol
which also is a steroid.
One was announced by a Merck
team, Drs. John H. Chemerda
E. M. Chamberlain, E. H. Wilson
and Max Tishler. The other was

The presidential press Office
would not say definitely last night
that the strike is over. but said
only that "all railroads are operat-

1t. Overton was born in Nor

Is New Ways to Make Cosone Promise nexhoustbe Supply

/, boost the supply tremendously. A
month ago, chemists of Syntex,
Inc, announced method of MAX
ling cortisone from Mexican yams
and said they expected to be able
to double the present output OF
cortisone within a year.
The third brand-new method
makes cortisone from coal tar, an
outstanding chemical achieve
ment.
Drs. Robert B. Woodward
Franz Sondheimer and David
Taub of Harvard developed a
steroid from a coal tar product
and then made this chemical ex-
actly like a natural bile acid.
In other work, DR.. Hans Hey
mann and DR.. Fieser showed that
the natural bile acid could be
given the vital oxygen. and then
developed into cortisone by using
previously known methods.
The dove-tailing of the two
methods results in cortisone from
coal tar. This full process takes
48 chemical steps and commercial
production of cortisone from coal
tar is long way off, the Harvard
scientists said.
| A fourth announcement tells OF
getting the hormone from soy
bean material through the action
OF a new engine, or chemical
governor, obtained from cattle
adrenal glands. This was done by
DR.. Max L. Sweat of the National
Institutes of Health in Bethesda

NEW YORK STOCK EXCHANGE Eto
Stock Market Steady
After Spurt by SteeIs
Halls at About Point
BYthe Assoeiated Preks

NEW YORK, Dec. 26.-Trading
was on the quiet side today in
the stock market with the excep-
ton of one flare of activity in the
steel section.
Prices ran from a little better
than a point higher to fractions
lower with the plus signs impart-
ing a steadiness to the list,
Steels were up around a point
at times early in the day, but
later they backed away from this
top.
There was some evidence of To-
calized tax selling and switching,
but this activity didn't have a
lasting effect on the market in
early stages. There were some
er-than-average gains in rails,
chemicals. coppers and rubbers,
but they were achieved quietly
and without influencing other
areas.
Higher were Bethlehem Steel,
Youngstown Sheet & Tube, Chrys-
Ter, Nickel Plate. Gulf Oil, U. S.
Gypsum, Kennecott Copper,
American Cyanamid, Union Car
bide, Goodrich. and National Dis
tillerS.
Lower were Studebaker, Good
year, Boeing, Douglas Aircraft,
Dome Mines, Dow Chemical, and
Sinclair Oil.
The bond market backed down
slightly in the corporate section.
Governments were steady in the
over-the-counter market.
