As a result of the brilliant work of Reichstein , Kendall, Gal l agher, and Win terstein er in the middle forties, t h is objective mones became practicable. Fin ally, large amounts were made available for extensive inve st igatio ns. At about the same time the adrenfll-stimulating and Julian, the large scale preparation of the most important cortical hor­ was achieved and together with the further contributions· of these investig a­ tors, as well as the very significant achievements of Sarett, Miescher, Wallis, hormone of the pituitary (ACTH) became available in sufficient amounts and in a usable stage of purity so that both hormones were at hand for the study of the essential physiological processes controlled by the internal secre­ tions of the adrenal. Within an extremely short time the epoch-making dis­ covery of Hench and Kendall of the effect of these hormones in arthritis was reported. These observations opened a new era in medicine, physiology and biochemistry, and it was reco gnized as such by the award of the Nobel prize to Reichstein, Kendall, and Hench in 1950. The number
