[303] The above data are derived from the report made by the Committee of
Fourteen for 1912.
[304] For purposes of comparison studies were also made of 610 girls in 7
other New York city and state institutions and of 1106 street walkers. See
pp. 197 etc.

[307] These tests were made by Dr. Archibald McNeil, of the Research
Laboratory, Department of Health, New York City.
[308] All smears were prepared and examined in duplicate and were stained
by Grams method, pure cultures of staphylococci and colon bacilli being
used as controls. In one case the smear was positive and the complement
fixation test for gonorrhoea was negative, but as a rule antibodies
against the gonococcus do not appear in the blood during the acute stage
of the disease, so it may frequently happen that we may have positive
smears and negative complement fixation tests in recent cases. At a later
period, however, the complement fixation test is almost invariably
positive.
The complement fixation tests were all performed in duplicate as a check
on any possible errors in technique. The anti-sheep hæmolytic system with
inactive sera was used with the alcoholic extract guinea pig heart for an
antigen in the syphilis tests and an antigen prepared from ten varieties
of gonococci was used in the tests for gonorrhoea.
