Magic Bullets

"This film is a condensation of Warner Brothers' film starring Edward G. Robinson, based on the life of Dr. Paul Ehrlich, famed scientist who discovered the 606 cure for syphilis." "The picture opens with Ehrlich's difficulties with the budget committee in whose hands lies the fate of his experimental laboratory. It shows the beginning work of the mechanics to kill the spirochetes of syphilis." "It portrays Ehrlich's struggle to secure funds and carries on through the long hundreds of experiments up to the 606 which proves successful. Shows the success that has resulted from the use of the cure." Made available through the U.S. Public Health Service." War film news letter
