JULY 1-1, 1*924 • Scientists Claim Doctor's Vaccine Prevents Tuberculd/is imui v CULLED I.LG’ Believes Children Can Be Cured —Doubtful As to A ' Adults , BY MILTON BRONNER / NEA Service Writer *■ PARIS, July n.—French medi cal men are hoping the name of Dr. Albert Calmette will be added to the galaxy of immortal scien tists, by reason ot a vaccine for tuberculosis with which he and his collaborators have been experi menting for some years. Following the modest doctor’s own injunctions, and not desiring to raise any false hopes among the world’s suffering masses, they arc , all qualifying what they say and writq about the Calmette vaccine with a very big “if.” Calmette, vice director of the Pasteur Institute here, has com municated the results of his ex periments to the conservative Acad emy of Medicine, where his modest remarks have been received witn unusual appaule. Briefly, Calmette has worked out a living culture of tubercular bacilli, so attenuated by laboratory processes that it will not give any animal tuberculosis. On the other hand, his experiments lead him to believe that if, it is administered to a young animal, up to now immune from tuberculosis, the vaccine will confer upon it complete immunity. This wonder worker has briefly been named “B. C. G.” Calmette began his experiments with animals subject to tuberculo sis. He inoculated young calves born of tubercular cattle. They were unshamed by the vac cine and were thereafter revacci nated once a year. One hundred and twenty-seven underwent the treatment, thanks to the intelligent co-operation of French farmers. All these animals have remained in good health. ’ The tests seemed to establish the vaccine was inoffensive and effica cious. Calmette then experimented with anthropoid apes whose reactions to microbes and toxins resemble those of man. The same success attend ed these trials. Emboldened by this and with the consent of the parents, he then vaccinated 247 nursling children. All are in good health, although many of them live in localities where children are liable to tuber culosis. It is not claimed that the vaccine will cure tuberculosis in adults. GA. SENATE OFFICER HAS SERVED 27 YEARS ATLANAT, July 11.—Major Devereaux F. McClatchey, secretary of the Georgia state senate, has celebrated his twenty-seventh year in the service of the house and senate. “Mac,” as his friends familiarly address him, enjoys the largest ac quaintanceship and has. more per sonal friends than perhaps any man in Georgia. It is said that wherever one goes he finds someone who knows him and wherever one finds pn acquaintance of the Major’s he finds a friend. It is claimed he ha 3 done something for everyone and gets more pleasure out of serving the other fellow than he does serv ing his own interest. “Magnetic in personality and loyal to the core, he is a ’star’ and as true as steel to his friends” is the way one editor describes him. The real trouble with narrow minded people is they are too nar row minded to admit it.

BUN SHIPMENT INCREASE Practically All Other Fruit and Vegetable Movements De creased During Week ATLANTA, July 11.—Notable increases were shown in shipments of peaches, pears and waterraellons during the week ending July 5, while practically all other lines of fruit and vegetables decreased, cantaloupes alone showing a loss of 1,100 cars, according to the weekly market review on fruits and vege tables issued by T._ C. Cutty, of the Bureau of Agricultural Eco nomics. The week’s total movement of 22 products was 17,575 cars, about 1,000 less than the week pre ceeding but 2,000 more than during a corresponding period last year, it is stated. It is predicted that Georgia peaches will come with a rush dur ing the next two or three weeks. After a temporary lull, the past weeks shipments from Georg-a in creased to 965 cars. The move ment has been so retarded that only 2,600 cars were reported from this state to July 5, compared with 3,- 500 a year ago. Every effort is being made to prevent market gluts and to keep at home all fruit less than 1 and three quarter’ inches in diameter. Active trading in Eastern dis tributing centers brought canta loupe prices back to a range of $2.75 to $3.25 per standard crate, the review shows. Supplies were liberal and in some places heavy, but were well absorbed prior to July 4. Georgia shipped about 200 cars the past week, and Ari zona’s season, after considerable delay, started with a. like number. Movement from Georgia ih heavier than last season, it is stated, with flat crates of Fink Meats and Green Meats jobbing mostly at 50 to 75 cents. Atlanta quoted a few sales of Georgia Rocky Fords in standard crates at $1.50 to $2. Nearly 1,200 more cars of water mellons were shipped than during the previous week, Georgia and lexas doubling their output as Florida’s movement fell off. Ar rivals increased sharply in leading cities, with a corresponding drop in prices. At South Georgia shipping points, 28-30 lb. average Tom Wat pns weakened to $125 to S2OO a carload, and labelled stock to S2OO, declines of SIOO to $l5O, it is re ported. Tomatoes closed stronger as a result of ;he decreasing shipped in supply, the review states. Jobbing range for Green wrapped Fours was $1.25 to $1.50 in the middle West and as high as $2 in New York, while at shipping points the price has advanced to mostly $1.25 to $1.35. Shipments were about 300 cars bghter. A burglar can open almost any thing except a bank account. SON OF GA.
