The Case That Has Stirred Montclair, New Jersey, to Join in the Fight to Suppress the Petted Disseminator of Malignant Germs

pened several times while the Janitors house was still quarantined.
 Both the maid and the child contracted diphtheria within few days after the cats first visit from the infected home. Adminis- traitor of anti-toxin saved their lives. But 1t was found that diphtheria also had ap- peared in several houses to which the cat had access, and in each case 1t was the youngest child of the family, the one who was still creeping about the floor, who con tracted the disease
 An examination was made Of the cat ana masses of the diphtheria bacteria were found in its throat and mouth.
 Tn addition to this case, large amount Of scientific evidence was presented by various individuals and organizations who have made a study of the question. The Audubon So- ciety of New Jersey, the United States Bio logical Survey and similar representative bodies were strong In their appeal Tor the banishment of the cat, and F. K. Vreeland, or the Camp Fire Club of America, a well-known naturalist and resident of Montclair. made a powerful argument in favor of the anti-eat movement.
 "This is not sentimental matter nor subject for levity, as some people have been led through ignorance to believe" he said but very serious matter, vitally anectlng the welfare of our town and particularly or our children, and many thinking men ana dignifed organizations throughout the coun- try are working to promote similar meas ures
 "Tbe yagrant cat Is a serious menace:
 "First, as a carrier of disease.
 "Second as a ruthless destroyer of birds, which have great economic value as insect destroyers.
 "For this reason it Is highly important to establish a system of licensing household cats so that they may be identified, and of providing means for disposing of the va grants, which are of no use to anybody and oh df har Few DeODla realize how many thousands of such vagrants there are in Montclair, since their elusive and largely nocturnal habits keep them out of sight. They live by their wits, rearing their families under barns and verandas, and de. pending for their living largely on the wild birds that they catch.
 "The danger of the cat carrier of dis ease has been carefully studied scientifically

mouths, from which the poison dribbles tn their saliva, and which they wipe away with their paws, thus getting the same sores on those paws which cattle have on their hoofs. The Bulletin of the New York Health Department states that fowl, dogs and cats have frequently been the means of spreading this easily communicable infection from one farm to another, and that among the methods for controlling foot and mouth diseases should be the killing at once of dogs cats and chickens, in order to prevent possible dissemination by them.
 Ringworm Is frequently contracted from cats; this Is an infection acquired from an unnoticed patch on pet cat, and which is very likely to spread giv. ing much annoyance. humiliation and suffering to the various members of the family owning the feline delinquent. And to how many children in the neighbor- hood does the child that got the ring worm of her cat in turn transmit 1t? Give any medical school inspector in large city chance, and he will wax elo- uuent and his voice will rise in high and indignant tones over ringworm epidemics that began with somebody's pet cat
 The Veterinary Institute of Berlin has found that nearly six per cent (6.9) of cats have cancer. mostly of the skin.

We cannot say If there is really great danger of cancer here to human beings | but surely no one among us would care Go take a chance. Certain it is that tho pound is the place for cancerous cat
 The law rightly requires all dogs, well or sick to be registered, tagged, quaran- tined, or leashed and muzzled. and that the owners of dogs shall be legally re- sponsible for the behavior of their ca hines. Exactly the same laws should ap- ply to cats.
 Perhaps you do not think cats are dangerous as to rabies. We'll during the last six months of 1914, in New York City, forty-two persons bitten by cats re- ceived the Pasteur treatment at the hands of the Health Department. In nine of these cases no examination of the biting animal was made, or the ex- animation proved negative-that is. the cat might have been rabid. but was not proved to be so. Ths remaining thirty three patients were bitten by twelve cats that were by brain examinationf proved to have rabies!
 And the cat is as unnecessary as it O harmful.

subject to tuberculosis as are human beings.
 And tetanus or loekjaw. The germ Of this disease is in the dirt of gardens, especially those fertilized with horse manure. There Is no more awful disease than tetanus; its sufferings are exceeded by those of no other disease, and unless tetanus antitoxn is injected early in the disease, during the incubation period tDe- fore the symptoms appear), the deatn rate is practically 100 per cent, that IS, practically without recovery. Who ever saw small boys hands clean More than once has the skin of such hand, scratched or bitten by cat. been en- tered by the tetanus germ, with the de- velopment of lockjaw.
 Then there is foot and mouth disease, which in January last appeared in at least eighteen of our States. This is a plague affecting primarily cattle. which catch it from one another as easily as child catches measles. And cattle read fly give this foot and mouth disease to domestic animals-sheep, horses hogs, barnyard fowl dogs and cats, and from these animals, especially dogs and cats, human children and adults as readily contract the disease. Thus cats will be seen with the characteristic blisters and cores on their lips and inside their nu. Great Britain Rights Reserved

How can cats be thus responsible? Either by having the germs of these infections concealed in their noses, mouths, throats and furs, or by harbor- ing,insects that carry germs to man; or they have the germs in their system and spread them about by coughing, splitting, Gas they do in anger) biting and sneez- ing; or germs may enter our bodies through skin that has been scratched or laid open by the cats bite or claws, or the germs of certain diseases are apt to be in the cats spittle, which it smears with it's paws over it's face, and then rubs over itself in the familiar way
 Let us go little into particulars.
 Many diphtheria patients have the germs of that infection in their throat months. or years even, after their recov- cry: cats can do the same. And how long can such germs remain in cats fur which is an ideal germ holder, where these microscopic causes of disease can nestle so cozily, multiply and spread the disease so insidiously that no one sus- poets how the disease came to be sui fered, perhaps many months after the cat that has been around case got those germs in her hospital pelt? The diphtheria germ has lived years in cloth ing, bedding, and so on
The Birmingham age-herald., 1915-06-27

John B. Huber in another column, has found the diphtheria germ to be one of the most persistent of all those of contagious diseases. They find lodgment in the whole membranous tract from the nostrils down to the branching of the trachea to the lungs. They will lie in the nasal passages, in the throat and particu- larly around the soft palate for months with out effectng the health of the carrier. When disodged, however, by sneezing or coughing, or even in speaking, these germs, if they come in contact with susceptible persons, will at once become active and develop diphtheria. The cat, it has been found, although suffering little from diphtheria itself, is what is termed perfect host" for the diphtheria germs. The microbes find lodgment in it's rough tongue, in the corrugated roof of it's mouth, or hard paate and around it's soft palate, just as in human beings, and there they thrive and multiply without doing harm to the cat.
 From their places of lodgment in the cats nose mouth and throat they are displaced by its sneezing, it's habit of splitting and particu- larly by it's filthy habit of washing it's face with it's paws. The germs are transferred to the tongue in the saliva and from there to the furry paws of the cat by the millions and are literally plastered over it's face. When woman or child takes the cat up and presses It's face to theirs, rubs it's cheeks against theirs. and. as often happens, kisses 1t, nat urally the germs transferred to the cat fondler If they are susceptible the disease soon develops.
 This is just what happened in the case of the Loves Whether the janitor's child con- tracted the diphtheria from the cat, or whether the cat received its germs from the child is not known. But it is known that the cat had access to the sickroom.
 It appears that it had been in the habit of entering the Love apartments by way of the back entrance The twoyearold boy or the Loves was in the habit of creeping over the floor and embracing pretty kitty" Mrs. Love had frequently told her maid to put the cat out whenever 1t appeared, but she had not been obeyed. It was not known that diphtheria was across the street. ana when the cat appeared as usual the baby boy played with it and the maid fondled 1t before showing it the door. And this nap

There is cat asthma All too many little children have asthma; some of them certainly get it from their cat pets. It is surely not pleasant to have to see a little child suffering for want of breath, wheezing, getting gray in the face and blue about the lips, and to reflect that cat may produce those symptoms
 Adults have asthmatic attacks from the mere presence of cats, sometimes when the cat is not seen, but may be 1n another room; such symptoms must be produced from the cat emanatons, pre- cisely as the smell of certain drugs or the inhalation of certain grasses and pollens gives asthma. In such mysterious ways, then, do people suffer on account of cats. A cousin of s. Weir Mitchell, the famous physician and novelist, would have cat asthma if cat were only Tn an adjoining room. Either the cat would have to leave the house or he would have to go. .
 There is tuberculosis which takes on so many of our children in infancy from glandular and intestinal tuberculosis. which has been destroying every third or fourth among us between youth and old age This is disease from which we ought to remove all possible causes.

4 GREAT English poet wrote very A pretty piece about "the harmless, \ necessary cat" That's just like poets; so long as they can be senti- mental, what do they care for the facts. The facts are: Cats are far from harm less, and they are not necessary. They are all too often the cause of disease and of death in human beings.
 We catch disease in two ways; from one another and from the lower animals, cats and the like. In one or the other of these ways we come down with typhoid fever, cholera, leprosy, ringworm, humps measles, scarlet fever, diphthe ria. typhus fever, hydrophobia infantile paralysis, smallpox, chicken pox, relaps- ing fever filth disease), cerebrospinal meningitis, tetanus, tapeworm. asthma, grippe, pneumonia, common cold. We know now great deal about human car riers of disease, and the list of maladies that can thus be transferred is ever iengthening with scientific investiga- tiOns.
 Similarly we are learning more and more that animals as well as human beings can be disease carriers.

A BILL is now being drawn up to be pre-
 A sented to the New Jersey State Leg ( T islature to control the ownership of cats. The Audubon societies throughout the country, medical associations and kindred bodies are preparing material for nation wide crusade having the same object in view.
 The New Jersey legislation has been ex- pedted by proceedings taken in the progress sive city of Montclair, N J.. which is notable as being the richest community of its size in America, and which has assumed the lead ership in a number of matters involving so- cial and civic progress. The Town Council of Montclar has had presented to it number of cases in which the origin of contagious diseases has been traced concusively to cats.
 The evidence presented by well-informed persons that the family cat nuisance is a

serious and growing menace to the health or communities was so strong that, while the first step in limiting it in Montclair will be the licensing of all eats, more stringent means of actually suppressing the useless and dangerous animal are being considered.
 One of the most striking cases brought out before the Montclair Council to show the real danger of the family cat was presented by MT. Lawrence Love, of Upper Montclair, whose two-year-old son and Katherine Keenan, a servant in the Love household, were stricken with diphtheria, which was definitely traced to the family cat of janitor across the way.
 The Loves were living in Newark at the time. They had ground floor apartment. Just across the street was another apartment house, the ianitor of which lived in the base ment. The ianitor had a cat which was al
