surgical operation. ••During such procedures, the adrenal cortices, which are the outer layers of the adrenal gland lying at the-upper end of each kidney, are stimulated. “It was therefore suggested that anesthesia, or surgical operation, might stimulate the adrenal cortices to produce a certani harmone which would in turn exert a temporary beneficial effect on rheumatoid arthritis.” As early as 1941. Hench and Kendall, speculated that the unknown “antirheumatic substance X” might be a harmone produced by the outer layers of the adrnrl glands near the kidneys. ‘‘Finally, after investigations by Dr. Kendall and chemists of Merck and Co., Inc., compound E was

evolved in 1946."

The physicians said the first patient to receive compound E had rheumatoid arthritis so severe that no form of treatment

had aided her.

On the day she first received the compound the report said, she could scarcely get out of bed. “On the third day, however, she was up and out of bed, walking with only a slight limp and a week later pain and musculaf stiffness had almost completely disappeared. She was able to go downtown ami shop, the only result of this activity being fa-

tigue."

The report said that “since this first patient was treated in September, 1948, 14 other arthritic patients have received compound E for varying periods." “In every instance,” it asserted, “the stiffness of muscles and joints has relaxed markedly.

Arthritis Cure Found, Belief

ROCHESTER, Minn. April 23. ,—(UP)—Development of a new compound which “appears to have significant promise" in treatment of rheumatoid arthritis was reported by four Mayo Clinic physicians. A crippling disease, rheumatoid arthritis has no known cure. A report on use of the compound was made at a clinic staff meeting by Dr. Philip S. Hench, head of the clinic’s arthritis department. A 20-year search for the substance, knokn as “compound E" was described by Hench and three associates, Drs. Edward C. Kendall, Charles H. Slocumb and Howard F. Policy. The physicians emphasized that manufacturers will "not be able to provide supplies of compound E until January, 1950, and that even after that date thquantity of the drug will be exceedingly small." The report said Kendall and his associates, with the aid of chemists of Merck and Co., Rahway, N. J., first achieved partial synthesis of compound E in 1946. "Srarch for the drug now known as compound E began in 1929, when Dr. Hench noticed that arthritic patients reported inexplicable relief of pain when hey became jaundiced, and that women with arthritis likewise were relieved-of arthritic pain when they becaQie pregnant. "Coupled to these observations was the known fact that rheumatoid arthritis itself sometimes s dramatically halted with no apparent explanation.
