NEGRO CHEMIST Had Part In USDA Penicillin Research In the development of methods for mass production of penicillin —the miracle drug which is saving thousands of lives—Miss Sinah E. Kelley, a colored analytical chem ist of the Northern Regional Re search Laboratory of the U. S. De partment of Agriculture, assisted with the project in the latter stag es by performing important analy ses, says Dr. L. B Howard, chief of the Bureau of Agricultural and Industrial Chemistry. Miss Kelley, who has done ad vanced work in chemistry at New York University, is a graduate of Radcliffe College. She transferr ed from the Picatinny Arsenal three years ago to the USDA Lab oratory at Peoria, 111., where she engaged in analytical chemical work in the Fermentation Divis ion. The major part of Miss Kelley’s work consists of performing analy ses for sugar and for the various fermentation products. During the war her work was connected with the mass production of penicillin. The production of penicillin is link ed up with agriculture in that it is produced by a mold that lives on a diet composed almost completely of agricultural products— corn steep liquor and milk sugar. Penicillin was discovered by a British scientist nearly 20 years a go. But up until a few months be' fore our entrance into World War II, British scientists had not been able to produce the drug in signif_ icant quantities. During the sum mer of 1941 they brought their penicillin problem to the North ern Regional Research Laboratory where American, scientists develop ed mass production techniques which made it possible to produce the remarkable drug in sufficient quantities to meet the critical need of Allied fighting men during the war. By the end of 1944, some 21 chemical companies had taken the USDA laboratory’s know-how and begun the production of penicillin in large quantities—about enough to treat serious infections of 250, 000 persons per month- The mir acle drug is effective against pneu monia, venereal diseases, and cer tain other types of infections. With increased production of penicillin has come a correspond ing decrease in price. Even two years ago the price had been re duced from $20 per 100,000 units to only $3.25. The amount requir ed for a cure ranges from 100,000 to 150,000 units for gonorrhea to a million units or more for most oth er infections. Having pioneered the research for the mass production of penic illin, the Northern Regional Re search Laboratory is now turning its major interest to other research poblems. This laboratory is one of four USDA research centers de voted to the important problem of finding new industrial uses for ag ricultural products. 4 ■ I CHICAGO-NEW YORK FIRM Awarded Electric Revenue Bonds t ' — A group headed by Halsey, Stu art & Company, Inc., of Chicago, and New York, today was awarded the Omaha Public Power District's 42-million dollar revenue bond is sued by the Board of Directors of the District. There were two bidding groups. The other proposal was submitted by the First Boston Corporation, with Smith, Barney & Company and Harriman, Ripley & Company all of New York City, and assoc iates. Halsey, Stuart’s bid for the is sue, $42,020,995.80, was the higher Over-all interest rate cost to the District for the life of the entire issue will be 1.98 percent. The First Boston’s bid for the revenue bond issue was $42,008, 400. A difference of only $25,380. 80 separated the two bids. The District’s bonds will mature in blocks annually until 1977. The District sold the bonds to retire a note the District issued last Dec ember 2 to finance the cost of ac quiring Nebraska Power Company properties from the Omaha Elect ric Committee, Inc.
