MEDICAL SCIENCE:

NO Known Means for Eradicating
Or Preventing Development of
InfantiIe Paralysis.

Infectious Agent Is Filtcrablc Through

New York, Nov. 21.--Statistlcs gath

fantilc spinal paralysis has attacked no
less than 10000 persons in the United
States during the several cpidemics
Of the past few days. Although the
mortality seldom exceeds 10 per cen: at
least 20 per cent OF the victims are
crippled for life.
DR.. Simon F'ledner head of the
Rockefeller institute. who has been
studying the dseas-, is authority for
the statement that no means TO eradi-
cate its causes or prevent its develop
ment Is yet known.
'Those of us who have had to deal
with this malady or who have studied
Its unchecked progress, he says. have

We know 1t to be epidemic. We be-
lievc 1t to be contagious. We have
learned that there are abortive forms
without paralysis. ITS age, incidents
and seasonal occurrence are known to
us. We are acquainted with its ter
riblc results, nothing more.
All efforts to discover the infec-
tious agent microscopcally are fruit
less. although 1t can be as easily hand
led and controlled ar ordinary bacteria.
lnasmuch as no one has as yet sue
ceeded in seeing 1t. as it Is filterablc
through substances impervious to bac-
terra, it is thought to be too minute to
intercept those rays or light visible to
the human eye. Possibly by means of
ultra violet rays, 1t may be photo
graphed.
There is so little known about the
means OF transmitting the disease that
all possible measures Of isolation
should be adopted both in sporadic
cases and in epidcmics.'
