VIEWS ON TYPHOID
WRONG DIAGNOSES ALLEGED IN
MANY CASES.

"A large number Of caseS reported to the
health ONCE as typhoid fever are, in my
opinion, not that disease. but some other
ailment that has been mistakenly dag
nose6 by the attending physician"
Th1s statement was made yesterday by
DR.. William C. Woodward, health officer
OF the District. He was discussing the
typhoid fever situation in the District, when
he began to relate how often physicians, in
his opinion, make this error in diagnosing.
He also said that, on the other hand, q
number Of real typhoid fever cases pass un-
noticed and overlooked and are termed by
the attending physician as something else
In the fever line.
'If may be permitted to assume" DR..
woodward said. that many of the local
physicians wrongly diagnose typhoid fever
the result of the mistake however much as
1t may be regretted, makes little material
difference In the result Of the Districts
mortality. From Is to Il per cent Of all
ta1Iy.'
Dr.. Woodward thinks the conditions in
Washington are not directly chargeable
with the prevalence Of typhoid, as many
Of the cases which have been reported here
turn cut to have originated In some other
jurisdiction. The typhoid fever problem Of
the District that SO taxed the local health
office last spring and last summer has
caused the health officials to be particu-
larly alert in dealing with it. In every In
stance cases are carefully investigated with
q view Of tracing the disease to its origin.
and it has been found that surprising
number of such cases had their origin in a
section remote from Washington.
+ According to DIR. Woodwards discussion.
1t Is hard to determine the causes of re-
cent outbreaks of the disease in the Dis
trict. From the examinations he has had
made he does not think the disease Is
traceable to the milk supply, although other
medical men and the bacteriologists think
milk is responsible. Speaking upon this
subject he said:
cat no time have we charged this source
of infection as the sole or even the prln-
cipal reason for the spread of the fever. II
is undisputable that milk has caused the
spread of the disease in some minor cases
However. this theory does not hold good
when it is considered that the field Inspection
Of dairy farms and places where the milk
supply Of Washington comes from rigid en-
forcement of sanitary laws has not reduced
the number of cases of typhoid here. nor
in other large jurisdictions The strictest
sanitary rules and regulations are observed
in bringing the city's milk supply to the
consumer"
ton advanced that well and pump water
in the District is directly responsible for
the recent epidemic. He declares that the
vast majority of the actual cases reported
and treated were Of persons who did not
drink well or pump water. Neither does ne
believe the consumption of oysters and
CLAIMS. as has been suggested, produce ty-
phoid to any extent.

Pay Of Navy Yard Molders.

Owing to a complaint of the molders en-
ployed at the Washington navy yard, that
their wages had not been increased when
those of the other mechanics there were
raised, it Is said the Secretary of the Navy
has ordered the wage board to reconvene.
It is the belief of the molders that as g.
result they will receive an additional six
teen cents raise, which will increase their
wages to 1852 per diem.

Tucson and other centers in the territory in speaking of his impressions of the Capital city yesterday to The Republican said: This is my first visit to Phoenix and this section and I have since arrival and studying the city seen much to corroborate its widespread fame as a progressive city with substantial in terests such as mark prosperous and growing communities. IL is indeed an oasis in a desert as compared with some other sections of the territory visited. The rich valley lands sur rounding under the magic wand of ir- rigation have already brought to Phoenix doors of wealth and pros perity. The record of the past is in fantisimal compared to those yet to be recorded along lines of agricul- tural development now that the great Roosevelt dam is a fact.
