One of the distressing occurrences of the last flu epidemic was the number of individuals who faithfully nursed or waited on afflicted loved ones, and then after‘ the loved one was out of danger, they themselves took the flu and many passed away.

The natural conclusion of course is that they worked so hard to save their loved ones that they under- mined their strength and so had not the resistance to successfully fight the flu when they themselves were attacked. ,

Now while this is true there was another factor that entered into it, that is not. generally recognized.

Although these individuals worked hard physically, there was also the tremendous anxiety and worry about the patient, and this anxiety and worry was a big factor in under- mining their resitance.

Drs. I-leilig and Hoff reported some experimental work in three women who were troubled frequently with "fever blisters" about mouth. These fever blisters occurred after any un- pleasant emotional experience.

They hypnotized these patients, suggested to them an unpleasant emotional experience,‘ and at the same time suggested to them that the fever blisters would occur on their lips. ' '

In each of these cases the fever blisters occurred within forty-eight hours. ‘

Hypnotizing them and suggesting the attack of fever blisters, but not suggesting the unpleasant emotional experience, failed to bring on the attack of fever blisters.

They tested out the blood for its power to fight harmful organisms in the nonnal state, and two or three hours after the emotional disturbance undergone under the hypnotism they tested it out again.

In every case under the hypnotism and emotional disturbance there was a reduction in the power of the blood to fight harmful organisms. .

They conclude that the natural de- fence of the blood to infection is lowered by unpleasant emotional ex- periences.

We can now understand why some individuals who have undergone per- iods of grief and sorrow fall easy vic- tims to illness. Their emotional dis- turbances have weakened their_pow- ers of resistance.

Shortly after the discussion on capital ships, House received word from Sir Cecil Spring-Rice that the British Government had also decided to send a War Mission to the United States for the co-ordination of Bri- tish war activities. As chief of the Mission they selected no lea: a‘ person than Lord Northcliffe, whp was qual- ified for this difficult task as much by his superabundant energy as, by his conviction that American resourc- es were necessary to turn the scales of war in favor of the Allies.

New York. July 27, i017

I have long believed war can only be won from here. The position is most difficult and delicate. Sir Wil- liam Wiseman, Chief of our Military Intelligence here, should reach Eng- land in a few days. He is the only person, English or American, who has access to Wilson and House‘ at‘ all times. He had an hour and a half with Wilson last week and a day with House. The Administration is en- tirely run by these two men. Wil- son's power is absolute and House is a wise assistant. Both are pro-Eng- lish.

- Northcliffe.

Northcliffe not merely used his in- fluence with friends on the Ameri- can Press, but exerted himself in every way to come into close cou- tact with the leaders of industry, so as to hasten and simplify the deliv- ery of supplies for the British. When a misunderstanding arose over the offer of Henry Ford to send six thou- sand tractors to the British Food Pro- duction Department at cost, North- cliffe himself settled the matter and incidentally discovered in the great American industrialist a personality which piqued his interest and admir- atlon.

‘I hive, endeavored to get into touch with Ford,‘ he wrote on Octo- ber 6, ‘but he has twice put me off. It may be necessary ‘for ma to go to Detroit and eat humble pie. and if so will do so gladly. Ford is entirely indifferent to financial considera- tions.

‘October l4, 1917: I have no desire for further long Journeys, but it is considered important by those who

The Administration at Washing- ton was further confused by the lack of organization in Allied demands for credit and supplies. It was not un- til August that a purchasing board was created. Previous to the en- trance of the United States into the war, the firm of J. P. Morgan and Company had acted with great suc- cess as purchasing and f’ anclal ag- ents for the British and French Gov- BA ants. Mr. E. R. Stettinlua took charge of the coordination and pur- chase of supplies, as distinct from purely financial questions, and creat- ed within a short period an organiz- ation of such efficiency that Luden- dorff was quoted as stating that Stet- ' tinius was worth an army corps to the Allies. ’

With the entrance of the United States into the war, it was obvious- ly impossible for a‘ private firm to contlnudas purchasing agent for the Allied Governments. On- April 3, J. P. Morgan and Company suggested that the British take up the question of obtaining supplies and making purchases through the United States Government; it was clear that the business of the British Government ought to be transacted by it direct representatives, working in conjunc- tion with the various departments of the United States Government, in an effort to obtain the benefit of the more favorable prices and terms that could be scoured only through the exercise of government control.

The situation seemed less desper- ate, perhaps, to the financial experts than it did to Allied political leaders. for it wu likely that supplies would be exhausted before credits could be used.
