STILL CONSIDERING
WORK FOR SERBIA
Must Resign from Army Before
He Can Undertake Battle
with Plague.
Prom Tb, Tribune Baf,ao.

Washington, April 11.--Gcneral Will
lam c. Gorgss has not yet decided to
accent the offer OF the Rockefeller
Foundation to 20 to Serbia TO fight the
typhus plague. as told in The Tribune
this morning. This statement was
made By Jerome d. Greene, secretary
OF the foundation, tonight, following a
long conference with General Gorgas.
The suggestion that he assume di-
rectoral Office in the organization and
give the remainder Of hi, career to the
foundation instead Of the Federal gov
ernmcnt he has taken under advise
ment. and promised Mr. Greene a def
mite answer within a few days. 1t is
regarded as improbable that he will ac-
cept.
/. is General Gorgas's desire to con-
fer with Secretary of War Garrison be-
fore announcing my step.
Mr. Greene .=sued the following
statement tonight:
The Rockefeller Foundation has in
vited General Gorgas to become per
manent member of its staff in the
capacity of general adviser in matters
relating to public sanitation and the
control Of cpidcmics. The trustees Of
the foundation have Tor some time
been aware Of General Gorgass ; strong
belief in the feasibility OF completely
cradicating yellow fever from the face
Of the earth.
During the two years OF the Foun-
dation's existence the attention Of the
trustees has been chiefly given to prob
lens of public health. including the
control OF epidemics, and the need OF a
compctent adviser and executive IN this
field has been strongly felt. When m
co-operatiOn with the American ked
Cross the Foundation undertook the I'M
portant task Of helping the serbian
Government to control the epidemic OF
,yphus and the threatened epidemic OF
cholera the trustees again naturally
thought of General GoreaS "a man
pro.orinently ~ 10 be of service IN
this emergency, and at meeting held
3 in New ORR laSI week lHeE ueCluc"
70 make him a definite offer. This offer
is now taken under consideration, and
bo will doubtless communicate his de-
cision within a few days.
THE Foundations invitation contem-
rlates his retiring from active SER
vice. as he is now entitled TO at any
time. but Il does not contemplate hIS
resignation from the army unless he
.boG.d ne assigned TO duties OF such a
nature as 20 he incompatible with the

American Red Cross has actually been

I school. As director. The Rockefeller
Foundation is cooperating with the

this expedition, and if General Gorgas
should accept the Foundations offer
