 The employment of Belgians in England raised many stubborn ques- tiOns. Relief committees have not encouraged Belgians to accept em- ployment where they would compete with English labor and there has been a studied effort on the part of English committees throughout the island to prevent Belgians from ac- cepting a lower wage than that or dinarily paid to Englishmen or Eng lishwomen.

Commissioner Dixon Tells What
Antitoxin Has Accomplished
in This State

Diphtheria antitoxin, which the
Commonwealth of Pennsylvania gives
free to people unable to pay for it,
lives and will probably save many
more, says Commissioner of Health
Samuel G. Dixon. The doctor in his
weekly talk discusses the antitoxin in
a very clear and forceful way. He
says:
There are few absolute specifics
known to medical science. In the ma
jority OF ailments to which mankind
is heir the wise physician is he who
studies his case with the idea of eli
miDatlng those things which hamper
the natural functions and gives ma
ture every chance to restore her bal
ance.
"One of the few specific remedies
that science has produced upon which
the physician may depend to effect
cure is diphtheria antitoxin. Despite
its common use in neutralizing the
poison of this disease, few people real
ize how great a boon to mankind this
discovery is. Within the memory of
many physicians practicing to-day
diphtheria was a disease before the
members of the profession were prac-
tlcally helpless. Thousands of young
lives We're sacrificed and whole COM
munities were overcast by the shadow
of death following epidemics of this
disease.
Without the use of antitoXin the
death rate from this disease often eX-
ceeds 40 per cent. When diphtheria
antitoXin is used in sufficient quanti-
ties Immediately after the onset of
the disease prompt recovery follows
with few exceptions. Unfortunately,
one of the first evidences of diphtheria
is sore throat. which to parents may
appear to be only 4 slight cold. If
this is really the onset of diphtheria,
the disease develops within a short
time with terrifying rapidity into the
more advanced stages. For this reason
every case of sore throat among chill
dren should be watched with the
greatest of care and wherever possible
early medical attention should be
secured.
Records of the State Department
of Health which have been compiled
show the results of the treatment of
thousands of cases. They prove that
the deaths from this disease, after the
treatment with antitoxln, occur when
there is delay in administering it.
From a death rate of zero on the
first day ii increases to ) per cent. on
the second day. Il !. per cent. on the
third day. - per cent, on the fourth
day and 80 per cent on the fifth day.
AntitoXin may be administered IN
enormous doses without danger. Cases
are on record in the department where
$4,000 units have heen required to
effect cure in an individual case
''Diphtheria antitoNin is not alone
curative agent, bat is also preventive,
and should be used In immuniZng
doses to prevent the spread OF the dis
case among those who have been eX-
posed to it.
with this wonderful specific at the
command OF the medical profession
there should be few deaths from diph-
liberia. Those which occur in the great
majority of cases are due to the fact
that the early symptoms have been
overlooked or neglected by parents
and the resulting delay in securing
prompt antitoXin treatment"
