ISOLATION IS URGED
BY HEALTH OFFICER
Dr.. Woodward Wants Legis-
lation TO Compel Reporting
Infantile Paralysis Cases.

In a statement issued today Health
officer Woodward urges the adoption Of
legislation requiring that all cases OF
iufautile paralysis be isolated and that
tho cases be reported to the Health De-
parument- -Four additional cases were
reported today
The situation with respect TO the
prevalence Of infantiIe paralysis" says
the Health Officer. emphasizes strongly
" the importance Of requiring all cases
to be reported 10 the Health Department
and cf requiring proper isolation Of
such cases The dread and apprehen-
sion Of the disease have arisen as the
result Of the absence Of definite informa-
zion concerning the extent 10 which the
disease prevails. and because Of the
fact that the law does not require per
sons responsible for 5he care OF such
patients TO be isolated during the exist
euce OF acute symptoms
Unable To Estimate
Varying estimates have been made as
to the extent 10 which InTauJue pa
raIysis prevails in the District Of CO.
lumbIa-
The Health OFFICER has never made
SUCH an estimate, because he has 40
Information that would enable him 10
90 So Neither, so Tar as the Health
officer is informed, is any one in
possession of Information sufficient 10
enable him TO make an intelligent
estimate
1T Is the uncertainty and the fact
Ji-zJ one persons guess is as good as
another. and receives as much ere
cence, that causes dread and appre-
tension
Causes Much Worry.
The fact that every person is at
liberty 10 take or not to take pre-
disease Notwithstanding il is regard
ed as communicable by those best in
formed with respect TO Il. naturally
causes Uueasiness on the part Of the
parents of young children. If they
thought persons caring for such pa
tients were required 20 take precau-
lions for the spread OF the disease
they would feel treasured.
The situation affords the strongest
POSSIBLE argument FOR the ena crment
o. a law requiring the reporting Of
the proper isolation Of such cases.

RoosevIt's Paris Lecture.

In his Paris speech Roosevelt said:
Ordinarily, and in a great majority
OF cases, human rights and property
rights are fundamentally, and in the
long run, identical, but where it is
clearly apparent that there is a real
conflict between them, human rights
must have the upper hand, for prop
erty belongs to man and not man to
property
This is a nice sounding p'atitude.
but where is the sense In 1t? There
never can be fundamental or moral
conflict between the rights" Of two
classes.
Roosevelt makes it clear that he
does not condemn just or righteous
war, in other words the action of a
nation that engages in war when
prompted by right motives. In such
war nation may spill the blood
or Its brave and sturdy young and
middle-aged men and make widows
and orphans without limit, according
to his idea.
When was there ever war be-
tween nations, or between people OF
the same nation. that did not present
the spectacle OF both sides fighting
for their rights, as they saw it OF
