—new rival to penicillin in the
“wonder drug’’ class—is being
studied by the Army Medical De
partment as a possible aid to sick
and wounded war veterans.

ties which may prove as import- j
ant to the medical profession as;
was the discovery of penicillin,” •
says an Army statement.

I ‘gram-negative’ bacteria, such as'
tuberculosis, cholera, dysentery,
j typhoid. Penicillin is a killer of!
‘gram-positive’ bacteria, such as1
pneumococcus, streptococcus, sta- j
phylococcus (pus-formers), gono-j
coccus and syphilis.”

drug is still in the laboratory
stage, some is being produced and
small quantities are being made
