MAKES HEADWAY IN
PURSUIT OF INFANTILE
PARALYSIS GERM
CHICAGO, Nov. 2.—Discovery of
what may prove to be the germ of
infantile paralysis was announced
here by Dr. Maximilian Herzog. If
the experiments are supported by lat
er evidence, the conclusions of Dr.
Flexner of the Rockefeller Institute
will be upset. The work was done by
Dr. Herzog as head of the research
committee appointed by Dr. John Dill
Robertson here and his investigation
was carried on at the Cook county
hospital largely.
With the newly discovered germ or
coccus, Dr. Herzog has produced the
disease in monkeys and rabbits. It is
possible, however, that this germ is
simply the carrier of a smaller one,
which actually causes the disease.
