PROMOTION Of HEALTH
THROUGH WAR ON FLIES
Effect of Stars Crusade to Be
Demonstrated by Dr..
Murray.

A comparative study for the purpose OF
ascertaining the effect of The Stars anti
fly campaigns in reducing the death rate
among infants and adults in the District
of Columbia has been commenced by DR.
Arthur l.. Murray of the District health
department.
Flies are admitted to be extensive car
riers of typhoid fever germs and respon-
sibie for a large percentage of summer
complaint maladies among infants under
two years of age.
DR.. Murray's comparative study will
commence with the year 1910 and deal
with typhoid fever and summer complaint
diseases among infants not more than
two years old. 1t will be based upon the
monthly records of the health depart
ment. showing the number of cases of
this character and the mortality rate es-
tabliShed.

Rules to Promote Health.

IF citizens will maintain their premises
in sanitary condition; see that the
garbage cans are kept closed and destroy
every fly that gains entrance to their
homes. in addition to patronizing only
those groceries and markets where food
is properly screened so that flies cannot
come in contact with it, they will have
fewer physicians bills to pay and un-
doubtedly the mortality rate for typhoid
fever and other disease will be reduced, ;"
said DIR. Murray. THE Stars anti-fiy
campaign should receive the cooperation
of every citizen, and in proportion to the
cooperation that is extended will the
health of the city improve

Dates Back Two Years.

The Stars first anti-f1y campaign was
waged two summers ago. and last sea
son the crusade against the disease
spreading insect. was renewed with in
creased vigor.
1t is DIR. Murray's belief that his inves-
tigation of the health records will show
that health conditions i'm Washington
with respect to typhoid fever and infant
maladies, were better in 1911 than In
1910, when there was no active warfare
being waged against the fly. and still
better last year. when citizens generally
aided the campaign for the eradication
of the pest.
While no recent figures have been given
out. 1T is understood that there are fewer
cases of typhoid fever in Washington at
the present time than has been the case
i'm number of years. DIR. Murray at
tributes the splendid showing to the re-
duced fly population. and the fact that
the city received thorough cleaning in
the sanitary campaign that was waged
last month.
Whether or not Washington ever be-
comes fyless city, efforts that were
made to destroy the insect have been
more than justified. in the opinion of DR..
Murray, who believes that the coming
summer will be the healthiest the capita
has ever known.

FRlGHTFUL EFFECT OF WAR;
What General Embroillna Of the
European Powers Would Mean
to the Nations Involved.

M. Jules Roche. former minister of
commerce Of France, has made some
remarkable calculations as to the cost
Of an European war Taking as ha-
sis the expenses incurred by France
during the war of 1870. he reckons
that. assuming, for the sake of exam
pie, that the six nations Of the triple
alliance and the triple entente went
to war, the cost of maintaining the
armies alone would work out at no
less than $6,400, 000, 900 a month, with
out taking into account the other ex,
pensee. Continuing in the Gaulois, he
says:
And what would I've their internal
condition? The helligerent nations
would be struck with general para
lysis and would see their very means
Of subsistence disappear. Suspension
Of work would be forced even on
those who were not included in the
general mobilization. since whom
would there be to work for? To whom
would they sell their products? How
could they be exchanged or transport
ed? All the large works and fac.
tories, where the division Of labor is
completed. would have to be shut.
Even agriculture would be impossible
mo more purchases or sales; either
the economic or the financial death
of labor, an abrupt stoppage of the
hearts action in the national organ
ism of all the nations al war, with
profound reaction on all others-suc!,
would be the consequences of a gem
eral ccnaagration in the present con.
ditions Of European civilization"
Similar views are expressed by
Paul Leroy Beaulieu one of the lead
ing economists Of France. He thinks,
however. that France would suffer
less than other great powers because.
being self-supporting, she always has
at her disposal an immense accumu-
lation Of agricultural products of the
previous year on which to draw for a
long period. German would have the
greatest difficulty in obtaining inn
ports, being cut off by the English
fleets on the one hand and by Russia
on the other.
