WARNING SOUNDED
 ON THE HOOKWORM
pr. Stiles Declares the Disease
 to Be Most Infectious
HooKW0RM FROM AFRICA
Neqro Is Held Responsible For Bring ina the Disease Into the United States and South Is Af-
 fected the Most

Atlanta, January 1S.-'"The most seri- ous infectious disease in the south today is that of the hookworm," declared pr. Charles wardel Stiles of the United States public health service in addressing the opening session of the first national conference called for the study of this disease this morning
 While specimens of the hookworm have been found in the New England states, the middle west and northern Pacinc states, the disease is primarily one of warm climates and is generally prevalent in the south Atlantic and gulf states.
 On the negro is placed the responsible ity for the presence of the disease in the United States Dr. Stiles said that the hookw orm found here has been traced to the west coast of Africa, and 1t un- doubtedly was brought here by the negro.
 In this connection Dr. Stiles called att tention to the fact that while the negro had given to the whites the hoolkworm, tuberculosis had been presented to the negro by the whites, and today the death rate from consumption among the negroes of the south is three times the toll or that disease among the whites
 Twenty-Five per cent of the cotton mills employees of the south are affected with the hookworm, said Dr. Stiles, who based the statement on personal visits to l2s mills in North and South Carolina, Flor ida, Alabama and Mississippi. The mills in the sandy sections of these states showed a much higher percentage of in- a nf flA iadT, mt or clay sections. In the mills of Atlanta the infection was found to be less than 5 per cent.
 In some of the rural communities of the south where there is an absolute lack of sanitary arrangement, 90 per cent Of the inhabitants are infected.
 More than 250 physicians and represen- tatives of life insurance companies and commercial organizations from all sec tions of the United States were present at the opening session of the conference, which will continue for two days.
 Dr. H. F. Harris of Atlanta, of whom Dr. Stiles spoke as the first man to recog- nize the hookworm in America was chosen chairman of the conference. In In the afternoon he discussed the treat ment of the disease. He declared it to be most susceptible to treatment.
 Dr. George Dock of Tulane university discussed the symptomatology of disease and a paper on ''The Pathology of Un- cinariasis,' was read by Dr. Newton Evans of Nashville, Tenn.
 Excessive Waste of American Life" was the subject of an interesting address by E. R. Rittenhouse of New York, pres- ident of the Prevalent Savings Life As- surance society.
 Other speakers today were pr. W. M. Brumby, president of the Texas State Board of Health: Dr. W. w. Landrum of Louisville, Ky. Dr. R. M. Cunningham of Ensley, Ala.
 Tonight Dr. Stiles delivered stereopti- con lecture depicting the sanitary condi- tions at the cotton mills and other places visited by him.
