According to Prof. Low, the two consultants have worked on the theory that all parents have either male or female reproductive tendencies,

The liquid, which they have devised after years of research, acts on these tendencies to ensure either a male or female birth.

"The two consultants have al ready made, the experiment in more than 100 cases. Results in 90 per cent, of them have been successful-an extraordinary per centage," said Prof. Low,

Prol. Low, who is interested in the discovery only as a scientific observer, speculated about its pos- sible effects. "In some circles," be said. "sex predetermination might be attacked as interference with nature. On the other hand," he remarked, "t could be argued that sex predetermination exists in nature."
