CORONER HAS NOT
COMPLETED INVESTIGATION
Several More Witnesses to Be Exam
ined in East Great Plain Auto Fa-
tally.

Coroner Franklin Brown stated on
Wednesday night that he had not
completed his investigation into the
auto fatality at East Great Plain on
Tuesday when Clarence Edmund Ba-
ker was struck and run over by the
touring car owned by Andrew f.
Conner and driven by his chauffeur,
Clifford Rouse. Baker died at Backus
hospital shortly after the accident.
Coroner Brown started his exam1n-
alton of witnesses on Wednesday. He
had before him the conductor and mo-
torman of the trolley car on which
Mr.. Baker was riding. The tracks
run On the right hand side of the road
going west and all machines must
pass to the left of the cars. There
were two passengers in the touring
car.
James A. Carberry who was with
Mr.. Baker on the car told of what he
saw of the affair. He said he went
with Mr.. Baker to the hospital.
Coroner Brown also examined Mr..
Connor the owner of the automobile.
Clifford Rouse, the driver of the au-
to, said that the party in his car halt
ed at BacIxus corner and debated
whether to go to the Fairgrounds or
so to Gardeners Lake. The trolley car
passed them then.
After the car had passed they de-
cided to go on to the lake, and the
auto followed the trolley car. Mr..
Rouse stated that his car was not
running over fifteen miles an hour.
Approaching the trolley car he sound
ed his horn. Mr.. Baker jumped from
the trt LEY into the road in the path of
the machine and the chauffeur did all
he could to turn the car out of the
road. The car hit Mr. Baker, who
tried to clutch the radiator, but fell
under the car and the front wheel
passed over his body. The auto and
trolley car came to a stop at almost
the same time Mr.. Baker was rush
ed to the hospital in Mr.. Connor's car.

RABBI JOSEPH SILVER
AT PHILADELPHIA CONVENTION
One of 700 Delegates at National
Zionist Gathering.

Rabbi Joseph Silver of this city is
IN Philadelphia attending the annual
Zionist convention in that city.
The convention was formally open
ed at the South Broad street theatre
Sunday, when more than 700 delegates
from all parts of the United States
Wire welcomed by DR.. Solomon Soils
Cohen, chairman of the Philadelphia
convention committee.
"ZiOnism should have for its highest
object the establishment in Zion of a
nation where our people may find
their fullest expression as a race"
said DR.. SOlis-COhen in his address.
DR.. SOHs-Cohen's plea was for a
united ZiOniSm in America He al
luded to the dissensiOn that had arisen
IN the Zionist ranks through the pro-
posed organization of an American
Jewish congress that would demand
for the Jews equal rights in other
countries. The latter immigrants
among the Zionists favor the Organi-
cation of this congress while the
Americanized Jews believe the same
end could be obtained through the
United States diplomatic relations"
Attention was called 10 the rapid
growth of Zionism in America since
the last convention was held in Phil
adeiphIa II years ago, by DR.. Harry
Friedenwald, president of the Fedora
ton of American Zionists.
This growth has been especially
noticeable during the last two years"
said Doctor FriedenwaId. The war,
for time, threatened the destruction
of the international organization but
thanks to the organization of the Pro-
visiOnal executive committee for Zion
ism affairs and the wonderful growth
Of the Zionist movement in ali parts
Of the country the war has served as
stimulus rather than a check to our
activities

paralysis for the latter disease leaves
the child handicapped for life.
The symptoms of infantile paralysis
are as follows:
Fever; the child COMPLAINS of feel
ing tired and weak. It is noticed that
they are not able to walk as we'll as
usual Sometimes they vomit and
nave dIarrhoea. After one or two
days the weakness becomes more
marked and the child is unable to
stand. If the weakness is in its arms
the child is unable to use them. The
weakness increases so that the child
IS unable to sit up and develops ten
der spots in the legs and back, es-
pecially over the spinal cord
In many cases, however, a child
may go to bed apparently well and
through the night become feverish
and when morning comes the child is
pafalyzed, paralysis having taken
place over night. In many cases
children die within three four or five
days. In those cases that do not sue
cumb, after about two weeks the child
begins to strengthen and get power
in the affected limb or limbs and is
able to sit up. The child is able to
move more freely from that time on
as there is gradual Improvement
but the affected limbs always re
main smaller than the healthy ones,
owing to the wasting of the muscles
The full use of the limbs never re-
turns except in very mild cases.
Every child with a fever and weak
ness of the legs or arms should be
looked upon with suspicion. The cause
of the disease is a living organism
which gains entrance through the lin
ing of the nose. Hence one of the
best preventative measures is fire.

InfantiIe Paralysis a Dread Disease
City Health Officer Brophy Cautions Public Against En-
tertaining Children From New York Until Epidemic in
That City is Past-May Issue Order Prohibiting New
York Children From Fairgrounds and Theatres Until
Danger Period is Over.

That infantiIe paralysis is a dis
ease more dreaded than small pox was
the declaration made on Wednesday
night by City Health officer Edward
J. Brophy. Health officer Brophy has
received from Dr.. John T. Black, Sec
rotary of the State Board Of Health,
a warning of the epidemic of infan-
tile paralysis in the city of New York
and the need for a sharp lookout for
it in Norwich. The warning has been
sent out by DR. Black to all health
officers and physicians in the state.
He urges in the warning that every
suspicious case be reported and that
quarantine be established if deemed
necessary.
On Wednesday Health Officer Bro
ply issued a warning to the people
of Norwich. The warning is for the
purpose of keeping children away
from those who have recently come
from or who may come from New
York in the immediate future. A child
may appear TO be in the best of health
and Yet carry the disease which
spreads very rapidly. Wednesday
night Health officer BrOphy said that
he was contemplating the issuance of
an order directing that all those chill
dren who have come from New York
or who may come from New York
during the present epidemic be pro-
hibited from entering public buildings.
such as theatres, halls, or in the play
grounds or places where people are
most likely to congregate. He also
said that anyone having knowledge of
the presence of such children in any
of these places would confer a favor
by reporting it to him. 1t is intended
to keep these children by themselves
until the danger period is over.
The disease is much worse in many
ways than almost any other contag-
ious disease, said Health officer Bro
ply Tt is fatal to life in many cases
and if the child doesn't die it remains
paralyzed for the rest of it's life, either
in one limb or in all four The after
effects Of small pOx are not to be
compared with the effects of infantile
