That the Iowa State Board of Health
means business when it orders local
health officers TO take certain action
in cases of contagious or dangerous
diseases was evidenced to-day when
Secretary Sumner of the board is
sued an ultimatum to the Dyersville
board of health and mayor that I'M,
less they at once comply with the or
ders of, the state board respecting
the quarantining of houses in which
there is smallpox that the state board
will be called into extra session and
the entire town quarantined against
egress or ingress. DR.. Decker of the
state board visited Dyersville last
week and found several cases of
smallpox. He ordered the places
quarantined and left certain instruc-
lions for the local board to follow.
Complaints to the state board of
health, by citizens of Dyersville are
to the effect that in some instances
the quarantine has not been made
and that the board is ignoring the
state boards orders. This put the
state board on it's mettle at once
and determined its members to de-
monstrate the authority of the state
board in matters pertaining to the
public health. Now Dyersville must
either obey the orders to the very
letter or something will be doing that
will cause her people all kinds OF
trouble, besides shutting people out
of the town.
