(Received July 20, 11 a.m.) LONDON”, July 18. Dr Gye and Mr Barnard are back at their experimental farm. Dr Gye is cautious. In an interview, he said that to speculate in scientific results is contrary to common sense. The recent discovery has undoubtedly encouraged people, but it may after all prove a foolish optimism. There are forty or fifty ultra-microscopic germs. It _is known that they evist in connection "with smallpox, influenza, and sleeping sickness. “That was really what Mr Barnard and I were probing for when we discovered the cancer virus, he Mr Barnard said: “I think we will be able to meet the severest critic of the authenticity of our discovery. We have reached a stage when it is possible for team work to start,- and this may lead to the discovery of a new t-vpe of living things. Our instruments of to-day will register accuracy of movement ten times nearer than hitherto.’* —Aus.-N.Z. Cable Assn.
