...Protestantism. Many Protestants, remembering instances of Episcopalian refusal to recognize the validity of other Protestant orders (latest instance: Manhattan's Bishop William Thomas Manning's) forbidding Dr. Karl Reiland to allow Presbyterian Henry Sloane Coffin to officiate at a communion service in an Episcopal church (TIME, Nov. 25), think Episcopalians have no right to call themselves Protestants. Many high-church Episcopalians agree with them, dislike the name Protestant, would like to change their church's name to something like American Catholic.* Last week the P.

When the University of Chicago officially announced that its Isidore Sydney Falk had isolated the causative germ, the Streptococcus polymorphous (TIME, Dec. 23), the news spread with the celerity of a political or murder despatch. From London Dr. David Thomson, who has worked on the same problem, said: "Proving that one has discovered the true germ of influenza is in reproducing the disease in man or in animals by this germ in pure cultures . . . this is a very important part...
However, Dr. Morris Fishbein, editor of the American Medical Association's Journal, with his usual salutary skepticism, editorialized: "With little if any apparent warrant, it is again announced, for at least the tenth time in five years, that the causative organism of influenza has been discovered and that it is hoped to prepare a vaccine. There is thus far little or no evidence in scientific medical literature, or even in spoken addresses, to indicate that I. S. Falk, Ph.D., and his associates have progressed any further toward the solution of this problem than have workers in other parts...
