PARALYSIS SAID
TO Be ON WANE
During Last Seven Days There
Has Been Heavy Decrease
& In Deaths
ASSOCIATED Press by Federal wiroIess)


NEW. YORK, August I9.--For the
first time since the outbreak of the
epidemic of infantile paralysis the
health authorities yesterday expressed
the belief that the seriousness V the
situation was diminishing. An official
statement was issued 70 the effect that
the disease appeared to be on the wune,
This declaration was made in connec.
ton with the publication Of the pre-.
ceding week 3 statistics for deaths and
new cases.
During the last seven DAYS the deaths
have averaged thirty.two daily, as
against daily average of fOrty.two
deaths for the week before. Yester-
day there were one hundred and TWEEN.
tyfve new cases and thirty.two deaths.
The establishment of quarantine
against this and neighboring states,
where infantile paralysis is more or
less prevalent, continues. The latest
community to put up the bars against
possible infection is West Virginia.
which yesterday put into effect a quar-
antine against children under sixteen
yeaEs of age entering West Virginia
from New York, Pennsylvania or New
Jersey.
Five prominent physicians have been
named by the national health confer
enee, in Washington, to act as stand.
ing committee TO study infantle paraly-
sis, in an effort to discover a remedy.
They will report all results of their re-
search TO both federal and state health
authorities. The Washington health
conference has issued a warning to the
effect that it is possible that the disease
may make its appearance in other
states with the advent Of hot weather
next summer, unless some method of
prevention Is adopted Some of the
safeguards suggested are: regulation of
travel between the states by the issu-
ance of certificates, isolation of vic.
Tins Of infantile paralysis, and pre-
venting children from congrcgating in
large numbers.
