THEORY OF SUNSTROKE-
An Infectious Disease-Is Not Duc TO
Heat to Exposure to
the Sum.

Dr.. Sambon adopts what 10 many will
be a startling theory to explain the &c
ton of sunstroke. says the Los Angeles
Times. He regards this affection as not
due 10 excessive heat or exposure 10 the
sun, but TO an infectious disease caused
by specific organism. He atteets the
fact that strokers, oven cleaners, min
ers and iron workers are exposed to
temperatures higher than those of any
known climate without ever contract
ing the mslady, and that the Assam tea
planters and the closely sha~en Chinese,
although constantly working in the
hottest sun. are equally exempt.
DR.. Samhon, discussing the geograph-
ical distribution OF the disease, goes on
10 prove that the areas In which il is
epidemic are strictly defined. While
unknown In Europe, II is common in the
low-lying regions of the eastern United
States between the Appalachians and
the Atlantic. 1t extends along the Nile
sea, the Red sea and the Persian gulf
II prevails in the Indo-Gangetic alluvial
plain, but not on the adjacent Indian
highlands In support of his infection
theory DIR. Sambon refers TO the occur
renee of epidenics which have frequent
ly decimated hospital wards and not af
fected men exposed to greater heat and
sun. The demonstration of the organic
origin Of the malady rests on It's dis
tribution etiology. morbid anatomy and
epidemic Character. The specific or
ganism has not been detected. but DR..
Sambon's Investigations incline him 10
the belief that 1t hives In the superficial
layers OF the soil, and is sconveyed 10 the
lungs or alimentary canal by dust.
