Two of today's deaths were among
cases that were reported but few mo-
ments before the fatalities became
known.
Barring the fact that the cases have
been numerous, there is little of inter
est in the general situation locally. The
weather is warm and sultry, business
depressed and opportunities for employ
ment are extremely few.
Among the new cases is DR.. Miller, a
young physician.
