DECREASE IN PNEUMONIA CASES
Commission That Has Studied the Disease Is
to Meet This Month.

"One might almost think that pneumonia was
afraid of being investigated and had decided to
behave for awhile" said officer Of the Depart
ment Of Health yesterday. This is the winter that
the city of NewYork set aside for most searching
investigation of the disease and not in years have
there been so few cases.
It was last summer that the Board of Aldermen
aside $4,000 for the expenses Of this investga
ton. Private citizens who had lost relatives by
the dread disease offered to increase the sum, If
necessary. DR.. Darlington. the Commissioner Of
Health. selected a commission Of prominent physi-
clans and medical experts of several large Eastern
cities These men would not accept pay for their
services the fund voted by the aldermen has
been sufficient.
According to DR.. Hermann NJ. Blggs the chief
medical officer of the Department of Health the
decrease in the number of pneumonia cases has
been marked all over the country. This has in a
way retarded the work. Many phases of the dis
ease have been studied. however. and it is likely
that first report will be made before the end OF
the month Dr. Biggs will call meeting OF the
commission between April Is and 90 then the work
of the psychologists and others who have been
work all winter will be thoroughly studied over
and deductions will be made.
