Sncouraging teats have been made on patients in New York state, some of whom wdre in what used to be regarded as a hopeless condition. The United Press science editor has written six dispatches on the momentous discovery, including the / “detective story!fof how a team of scientists perfected tbe new drug. Here is the first dispatch.) By PAUL F. ELLIS (United* Press Science Editor) •—i — New York.

The greatest progress has corn? in the list 20 yeariu ,1 *'• H ' But the tuberculosis bug-+-a rod-: shaped germ-i-is a sturdy and tough organism.

Marilid is a brand new synthesis, but the compound known either as rimifon or Dydraaid was synthesized from coal tar in 1912. Its powers against the Tiß. bug have just been discovered-, With these . cou>peands medical science has a new weapon to fight' the killer. ■' . < “H 'j7 i .

A certain natural immunity ik reported in some human brings; and there have been studies with a vaccine known as B.C.G. The initials stand for bacillus calmette-gubrtn. Long used in (Europe, it has been tried only in recent ye*rs in the United States areas where there is unusually high prevalence of! the disease. The valua of th# vaccination still is in controversy between two schools of medical thought.' To score a real victory against mycobacterium tuberculosis science needed a drug that actualy sets 1 the germ back on its heels; knocks it dead quicily and at a cheap price. trials indicate that science may have that drug gow, The near future will tell. : Aatoist Fmed For Reekless Driving i I' i I W.
