　SHUGIO AND INOUYE studied the possible relations that might be present between sympathetic stimulation and seasickness with Aschner's phenomenon. Subjects for their study were afox ded by cooperation of students who belonged to Merchant School. 'Travelmin', diphenhydraminc-hydrochloride, 8-chlorotheophyllin, as an anti-seasick agent, was tested upon these students. It w-found that in one half of the number of the group who were easily affected with seasickness sympathetic stimulation occurred, whereas, with the group who were less affected with seasickness stimulation in larger majority of them occurred in parasympathetics. As a preventive measure towards seasickness, `Travelmin' proved to be effective in 92 percent of cases but the drawback of its use was the presence of slight side reactions.
