Lt. Col. D. B. Dill, Q. M. C., A. U. S., was responsible for the inception of this work and guided it through its initial stages. Capt. J. M. Quashnock, M. C., A. U. S., assisted in the management of the experiments and in the analysis of the data, as well as serving as a volunteer subject. Capt. Wilson, A. C., A. U. S., Lt. Holmes, Sn. C., A. U. S., Lt. Chovnick, A. C., A. U. S., Sgts. Tressler and Roberts, and Pvts. Perzanowski, Leyzorek, and McHugh, all of the A. C., A. U. S., served as volunteer subjects. We are indebted to Dr. T. S. Danowski, Dr. A. J. Eisenman, Dr. J. R. Elkinton, and Dr. E. A. H. Sims of the Department of Internal Medicine of Yale University School of Medicine, for their cooperation and help.
