A feasibility test of a new method to polarize beams of strongly interacting charged particles circulating in a storage ring is described. The stored particles, here protons, pass through a polarized hydrogen gas target (thickness 6[times]10[sup 13] [bold H]/cm[sup 2]) in the ring some 10[sup 10] times and become partially polarized because one spin state is attenuated faster than the other. The polarization buildup is clearly demonstrated in the present experiment.
