Vaccination Checked

"Anti-typhoid vaccination. together
with other precautions taken, saved the
city OF Memphv from most serious
epidemic OF typhoid fever"
This was the conclusion offered the
congress by DR.. ? NJ. Goltman, OF the
health department OF Memphis. Tenn.
in the course OF a paper III which he
discussed Community immunization
against typhoid fever. with the exper-
fence of about y. 900 vaccinations against
the disease in men, women, and chill

After a consideration OF all the
factors only one conclusion can be
reached. and that is that lnti-typhoid

ment In the Incidence and mortality OF
