VITAMIN "F” IS
ONE MORE STEP IN FAIRYLAND OF EMANCIPATION OF MANKIND FROM DISEASE — SYNTHETIC REPRODUCTION YET AN EXPERIMENT
By ROBERT S. THORNBURGH International News Service Staff Correspondent. WASHINGTON, March 5.—Isolation of another vitamin—F—by Dr. Hubert M. Evans, internationally known phsyciologist, is one more step in the fairy-land like emancipation of mankind from disease and physical delicionces that are responsible for most of the world's trouble. Despite absence of technical data relatives to Evans’ discovery, both private and governmental scientists here today expressed the belief that the new contribution to the vitamins must be related both to vitamin B— of anti-neuritic and growth-provoking properties, and to vitamin E, the reproductive factor in nutrition.
