are the mothers of new stars
which constantly are being
born.
But, DR.. Lawrence said, when
the densest of them, which are
supposed to be nearest to turn
ing into stars, are examined in
this new light they do not show
enough of the mother gas Of
creation to make the hypothesis
possible.

Nerve Electricity Source.
Finding Of a possible source Of
nerve electricity" the basic
energy of the nervous system,
was reported to the association.
It is produced by minute bat
teries, fat molecules, known as
phospholipids. according to DR..
R. H. Beutner of the Des Moines
College of Surgery, working
under a grant from the National
Heart Institute Of the Public
Health Service.
The electricity for seeing, feel
ing and thinking is produced by
chemical changes similar to
those taking place in a storage
battery. The phospholipids, he
explained, contain nitrogen and
phosphorus combinations not
found in other fat cells. The
electricity is produced. he ex-
planned, by splitting off of these
elements from the molecule
which. however. Is Immediately
reconstructed to go into action
again. The current is produced
in waves.
Affected by Drugs.
Suggestive evidence Of the
phospholipids as the source of
nerve electricity" DR.. Beutner
said, "can be found in the fact
that drugs which either slow
down or speed up the splitting
change the length of the cleo
trical nerve waves.
"Once we understand how
nerve activity originates we can
explain the causes of it's failure,
as In the victims Of mental
disease. In anxiety states which
precede mental disease. exag-
gerated impulses pound inces-
sanity against the nerve. Phos-
pholipid splitting is excessive
and finally becomes permanent
when rebuilding of the molecules
no longer takes place. Hence
there are no more electrical
waves. The nerve fails.
There are millions of nerve
facts in the human body and
If a few fail others take over.
However. If too many fail OBJ
viously the entire system will be

BERKELEY, Calf, Dec. 27.-
Man harbors a host of disease
germs all the time.
They rem a in quiescent and
harmless until they are reac-
tivated. again made virulent and
deadly. by any one Of a variety
of causes.
For this discovery opening new
roads in medical research, made
with the help of human volun-
teers among students and nurses
at Johns Hopkins University. DR..
Winston H. Price, associate pro-
fessor of biochemistry, was given
the Theobald Smith $1,000 prize
of-the American Association for
the Advancement of Science,
which opened its week-long win
ter meeting here today.
1t has been known for some
years that it is possible for viru-
lent strains of Rocky Mountain
spotted fever to exist in the dog
tick. in a weakened state. The
organism, however, often returns
to its virulent state when trans
ferred to another animal or to
man.
Temperature Role.
DR.. Prices studies have de-
termined that the reactivating
mechanism is related to the
change in temperature Of the
tick when feeding and that the
Transformation Is due to an ac-
tual change in the organism.
In studies on the reactivation
of epidemic typhus, DR.. Price
examined many immigrants from
Poland, Lithuania and Russia,
where the disease was common
a generation ago. and found that
one out of three carried the
typhus organism in their blood
streams. Reactivation of this
germ may cause a temperance
of the disease. either in the in
themselves or others.
The Johns Hopkins scientist
was able to isolate the latent or
ganisms from apparently healthy
persons who had typhus at least
20 years ago. In experiments
with laboratory animals he was
able to reactivate the germs at
will and cause typhus by the ad-
ministration of the hormones
ACTH and cortisone. These re-
store all the original virulence.
Experiments are in progress with
volunteers to determine whether
the effect is the same in humans.
The indications are, DR.. Price
said, that the viruses of the COM
mon cold. influenza, virus pneu-
monia and similar infections
may be present at all times and
that in many instances the re-
activating mechanisms. rather
than fresh infections, are the
cause of epidemics.

Likely 10 Hinge on
Fight in Baltimore
by ihs Assoeiassd Pres.

BALTIMORE. Dec. 27.-The
Democratic primary for Mayor Of
| Baltimore is as much a battle
between political leaders as can
didates. and is being reflected in
maneuvering to organize the Leg
islature next week.
City Delegates and Senators
were unable to line up definitely
in the legislative tugs of waruntil
their particular leaders had
chosen sides in the Mayors fight.
The primary battle lines may
not be finally formed yet and
some groups may realign before
the deadline for filing and with
drawals on Friday. There are
seven Democratic candidates at
the moment.
Two Groups Vie.
The main fight is between po-
litical groups led by Jack Pol
lack and George Della and Joe
Wyatt. To get at Mr.. Pollack,
Mr.. Della and Mr.. Wyatt are
opposing Mayor Thomas D'Ales-
andre for reelection on the the

Mr.. Della and Mr.. Wyatt, with

Pollack, picked T. Barton Har-
rington. chairman of the Mary

Committee, to oppose Mr..

Mr.. Harrington's particular
strength lies in the third district.
The sixth is the bailiwick of Mr..
Della and Mr.. Wyatt, and John
Luber, one of their group, is from
the fifth. Mr.. Pollack's strength
is in the fourth and fifth, while
Mr.. D'AleSandro personally is
solid in the first and second.
Lack of Unity Apparent.

makes for a lack of unity when
the city delegations deal in the

Mr.. Della is the incumbent
Senate President and Mr.. Luber
the House Speaker. However,
Mr.. Della doesn't intend to seek
reelection and is throwing his
weight behind Layman j. Redden
of Caroline.
A group of Democrats who OPP
posed Mr.. Della'S election last
time still is holding out, but the
guesses are that Mr.. Redden has
more than sufficient votes to win
without them. The opposition's
candidate, Fred Malkus of Dor
chester, refuses to concede yet
but promises that once he is con-
vihced the handwriting is on the
wall he will withdraw

Two Delegates have been try
