PAPERS OX MEDICINE AND PUBLIC HEALTH 273 



Though somewhat disappointed in the present results, 

 the reporters realize that they have had to do with very 

 unfavorable types for treatment and that it is really too 

 early to draw worthwhile conclusions as to the results of 

 this effort. In justice to the remedies employed another 

 six months must elapse before publishing results in de- 

 tail. 



The reporters are grateful to Dr. Hinton, Superintend- 

 ent of the Elgin State Hospital for his most cordial co- 

 operation, to Dr. Hughes of Elgin for his painstaking 

 examination of the fundi, and to Dr. Lorenz through 

 whose courtesy a supply of tryparsamid has been re- 

 ceived until quite recently. 



The writer is continuing, in collaboration with Dr. Pas- 

 kind of the Elgin State Hospital staff, this rather intens- 

 ive piece of therapeutic research and hopes in another 

 six months to have some very definite conclusions for 

 publication.
