DEADLY INFANT1LE PARALYSIS.
Efforts Are to be Made to Stamp
Out the Disease.

Troubled by the inroads the dis
ease is making in some. of the Eas-
tern state at the present time, the
Government has ordered an investi-
CATION into the epidemic of infantile
paralysis. New York, Pennsylvania,
Massachusetts, New Jersey and the
the city Of Washington, D. c., have
felt the disease the heaviest this year
and the scores Of deaths that have
occurred among the little ones of
this district has caused Uncle Sam to
take some action.
DR.. Wyman, of the Public Health
and Marine Hospital service, is the
leader in the Investigation, and he
made the announcemet this week
that he believes the disease to be
both infections and contagious. AL
though the disease is often fatal, its
appalling feature is that many chill
dren affected are permanently Grip
pied or deformed, robbed of speech
or hearing In word infantile par
alysis is not slaughter but a NUT
ilation of the innocents.
The, disease commonly attacks chill
dren, under five years of age, but oc-
casionally an adult is its victim. It's
shining mark at this minute In the
East lis William ,Hinrich, a pitcher of
the Washington American league
baseball team. He Is in a hospital
in Washington, and his entire right
arm is paralyed. AT the present
time there are over 500 cases of the
disease in Washington alone, while
Philadelphia and New York city re-
ports even greater numbers.
Nothing is known Of the cause of
the disease other than that it is be-
lieved to come from a germ, but ev-
en- these have not yet been found.
The disease usually appears during
June, reaches it's greatest prevalence
during July and Augutt and subsidies
in September. A few cases Of this
disease have appeared in this city
and county this year for the first
time. Cases are reported from other
cities in this and adjoining State. We
hope remedy will soon be found.
