STUDY BEING MADE
OF OCEAN WATER
AS GERM KILLER
LA JOLLA, Cal. (UP) The ocean Ib
Hot only a powerful antiseptic, but Ib
the biggest and perhaps the bent germ
killer In the world, according to the
latest discoveries of Claude E. Zobell.
rf the staff of the Scrlppa Institu
tion of Oceanography.
ZobeU's report on hU findings is
How being studied by the Society for
Experimental Biology and Medicine In
n effort to ascertain Just what It Is
In sea water that gives It Its antisep
tic qualities. He has demonstrated
that bacteria of a public health In
terest cannot survive long In sea
water. On the other hand, It has been
found that marlno bacteria have a
certain chance of survival.
Among the various deductions that !
have been made as to the possible
antiseptic qualities of sea water Is the
presence of predacious protozoa, a
possible lack of nutrients or the leth
al effect of sunlight.
One thing Zobell declares to be cer
tain Is that there Is something In sea
water besides Its salts which has a
potent bactericidal effect.
Experiments already made have de
monstrated that raw sea water hu a
greater health potency from its bac
tericidal aspect than cither the heat
ed or filtered water.
Synthetic sea water also was tested,
with the result that It showed less
bactericidal potency than natural
ocean water.
Officials of the Institute are confi
dent that It will be possible eventual
ly to identify the specific antiseptic
element of sea water and possibly ex
tract It for commercial or sanitary
purposes.

missal of the American Newspaper
Guild complaint and prevent a na

of the dismissal of two Post-Intelll-gencer
gulldsmen, Photographer Prank
M. (Slim) Lynch and Drama Critic
Philip Everhard Armstrong.
The principal attack, upon the con
stitutionality of the act under which
the board operates, drew a sharp re
tort from Robert Watts, associate
general counsel for the board, from
Washington. D. C, "that I'm getting
tired of going around tho country
hearing these charges. There's noth
ing new. The act has been tested
fcnd approved In the supreme court."
