While Gen. Carranza is nov the CEN
ter of the Mexican stage some OF his
personal traits are of interest as In
dcating his probable course either in
fighting intervention by the United States
or adapting himself TO the situation
caused by President Wilson's abandon
ment of the watchful waiting policy.
His temperament IS such that 1t is
difficult for him to consider himself
merely a head of a warning faction.
1t Is equally difficult for him to con-
slider himself merely as one of the
group of men who could form an
oligarchy under which Mexico may
obtain stable government.
The effect of any course on his per-
sonal fortunes is not apt to influence
him. He risked his own estate in
Coahuila when he took the field against
Huerta IT was sacked and destroyed
by the federals. His family We're in
exile on the border for year and re-
turned to their home only to seek the
border again when the split with Villa
came. His brother and nephews were
sacrificed by a traitorous general in
Tehuantepec. Through all he has
maintained himself infiexihly, 1t is
also to be said that If there is any
idealism to be found at this time in
the revolution it is personitied in Car
rama.

wv hat is the conclusion from all this
consideration of insects and diseases?
We think that it is clear that in the
new or biological conception of in
fectious diseases insects play an i'm
portant role. and future additions to
our knowledge will certainly make
this role more important than 1t seems
to be at the present time. The very
abundance of insects and their remark

furnish the foundation.

the import duties and the export dues

Carranza's sources of revenue have
been the customs duties at Tampico

and the royalties from the oil wells.
This has given him the money with

Recently in the Canal Zone an In

whether or not ants would carry the
bacillus of typhoid fever. The investi-
gator stated:
"One can readily see the danger of

is absolutely impossible to keep them
out of the house. and they get into
food in spite of our efforts.

1T became evident that the forces of
diseases We're parallel 10 many or the
biological processes with which natu-
ralists are familiar, Among the many
complicated factors which are con-
cerned in this biology of disease are
insects. The first knowledge obtained
on the subject i'll the study OF an
important disease of cattle IN TINS

this was recent as 1891. Ii developed
from this study of the bureau of AM
NAL industry in the course of expert

the malady had a cycle outside Of the

In other words. it was necessary In
the completion of the life cycle OF the
parasit for ii to pass through a Ger
tain species of tick, in which il Went
through transformations necessary to
complete maturity. This discovery laid
the foundation for remar BILE prog
ress in the study of disease. Since that
time many other disease organisms
have been found to be dependent upon
insects for their development.
The time has not arrived for the
classification of the conditions under
which insects may transmit diseases,
as our knowledge is being extended al
most daily and unsuspected conditions

Some of us are led to inquire
whether there is no end to the posi-
