NO INFANTILE PARALYSIS CURE
This the Finding Of Or. FIexner, Who
Urges Careful Study.

Albany. Aug. H.--No treatment so
far as is known which can be regard
ed as specific or even effective mas
been found In dealing with the prob
lem OF infantile paralysis, according
TO DIR. Simon Ftexner of New York,
who has been making a special study
OF the disease. At a conference here
of medical officers under the auspices
of the state department of health. DR..
Flexner among other things gave the
following views In discussing infantlle
paralysis:
The disease Is still alive over n
considerable portion of the state.
Our greatest concern is to determine
how and under what circumstances
the disease is spread.
There is no treatment so far as we
know which can be regarded as spec
iiic or even effective
II Is easily transmitted from ami
mails To man and Is more fatal i'm ami
mails than i'm man. One attack. how
ever light, appears to establish an inn
munlty against second attack. This
Is due to n specific micro organism
the propagation OF which in the body
appears 10 brins rsssout. a reaction es-
tablshing an immunity.
Until we can succeed I'm determining
cannot expect to accomplish it's pre-
vention.
Though paralysis Is present i'm most
all cases there are cases with no
naralysis. Such cases are spoken of
as abortive. and 1t is quite likely that
they are the source of frequent extern
sion of the disease-even fatal cases
arising from abortive cases.
The period of incubation appears
10 be from three to thirty-three days
Four weeks is supposed to be the pc
riod of infectiousness of the disease
after which II is not thought that in
fection emanates from the case.
The course of entrance of the germs
Of this disease appears to he through

nose.
It would also appear that the most

DR. Flexner appeals to the medical
and to the health officers of
the state to study I'm detail each case
coming under their observation. He
promises assistance and cooperation
from the Rockefeller Institute Of Med |
ical Research whenever and wherever
the same is possible.
During the year 1910, 800 cases Of

distribution of the disease, with mol

The disease, however, has been most
prevalent in certain rather definitely |
limited areas, namely, I'm the counties
bordering on the st. Lawrence river
and in the area bounded on the north |
by Lake Ontario, south by Pennsyl- |
vania, east by a line drawn south |
from the eastern end OF Lake Ontario |

With the green's q bit too damp fol

of the annual fall golf tournament started
this morning at the Columbia Country
Clubs new course at Chevy Chase, Md.
c. C. Van Leer and E. C. Robinson of
Columbia were the first pair to tee-off,
with A. Winter and A. B. Leet soon to
follow. Mr.. Leet made the lowest gross
of the morning. completing the course in
81, with George p. James of Washington

played rather a consistent amS-oing

Another consistent player was T. B.

while not playing as well as James, re-
quired six strokes on each of his first six
holes out.
Feel Newness Of Course.
Loren Johnson and w. Tuckerman seem
to be at a big disadvantage because OF
the dew on the greetings and the new
ness of the course, yet both might make
the first sixteen. 102 and 81, being the
gross score of each, respectively.
The sensation of the mornings play
was Otto Luebkert's try for the six
teenth hole, which he failed to make on
the first shot by a scant seven inches.
Because of the great number of en-
tries il is possible that five sixteens may
be arranged.
