Health Officer Dr. R. M. GriSWOld Wishes Citizens to Prepare
NO CAUSE FOR ALARM
Recalls Vividly the Epidemic of Nine Years Ago and Is Determined Fs-
 There Will Be No Repetition-Niacl1 fE-
 Case Continued-Briefs.

' Determined that the dread infantile paralysis will not come into this town, Dr. Roger M. Griswold today issued an uItimatum that all children com- ing from New York or any other place where the disease is prevalent must be reported to him at once. The notice will be published in the , Herald and also placed on roads lead ing to the town from all directions. Dr. Griswold said this morning he has found absolutely so symptoms as yet and is confident that with proper handling none will develop.
 Dr. Griswold further states that the notice is intended simply as a precautionary measure. People are . apt to forget the experience of past epidemics and probably few persons in Berlin have any distinct remem- brance of the epidemic in this town and vicinity only nine years ago. but Doctor Griswold rem embers 1t and has g. very vivid recollection of the fourteen cases he attended at that time and has no desire for a repeti- ton of the experience.
 For this reason people with young children are urged to keep them as much as possible on their home prem
 
 trolley cars and to report at once all cases of even apparently slight ill., ness. There is not at present any thing in the present mild epidemic to be alarmed about The epidemics of measles and whooping cough prob ably killed more children than will die from infantile paralysis in the next ten years. It is always more or less prevalent in centers of large populations and just now is a little more so than usual. Some of the yellow journals are causing useless excitement about it.
 The chief reason why the disease becomes epidemic is that many of the early cases are slight and not recognized. The case on Rocky Hill avenue, New Britain, which Dr. Gris- wold discovered yesterday might have easily escaped notice if he had not been familiar with the characteristics and it is not the fault of any physt- elan, especially of one of not at least ten or fifteen years of practise, if he does not readily diagnose it for the svrn ptoms are often slight and ob- scure.
 Mack Case Continued.
 The case of the state versns Harry Mack, charged with preventing the qppearance of a witness was again continued until next Wednesday morn ing by Judge George c.

SOCIALISTS APPEAL
 TOPREVENT STRIKE
Not the Time for Discord, They
 Tell Laboring Glass

Berlin, July 26, via London. July 27. TIPS a. m.-The manifesto to the working classes, issued by the socialist executive committee and the general commission of labor unions, appealing against the general strike which the leaders of the Liebknecht branch of the socialists are endeavoring to or ganize, reads as follows:
 ''The prolonged war weighs heavily on all nations and entails great sacri- fees. It tests the endurance of those at home and at the front, and it is natural that ill feeling and discontent should develop.
 This situation is, unfortunately being abused by irresponsible individ- uals who wish to mislead labor into resort1ng to measures which are not in the slightest degree adapted to re- lieve the burden but rather to increase it. An attempt is being made through anonymous leaflets which have been circulating for several months among mem bers of the party and of unions to SOW hatred and distrust against the deputies chosen by the workmen themselves. The charge launched against these men, who for years have stood at the head of the organ- ization of German labor classes, is that 0S, have disregarded decisions Of German socialist party conventions and inter national congresses, have perpetrated party treason, etc.
 Such insinuations and abuse cnuld be disregarded if labor simultaneously was not lnstgated to ill-advised pro- ceedlngs and an interruptions propa- ganda conducted for strikes and mass actions Tor which the unions and the Socialist party must disclai1n all re- spons1biltty. Whither must 1t lead If labor undertakes action which Is or gan1zed by irresponsible individuals on their own account and without a proper purpose? The consequences must be borne by the individual par t1c1pants, and neither party nor unions can grant strike relief. The organization of wage mevc- potent union committees and they are doing everything to emphasize the just1fable demands of members of their organizations. Extraordinary difficulties are present In the distri- button of the food supply. We have not failed to combat abuses exist ing In this field with every means at our disposal. We have struggled un- ceasingly to improve the efficiency of measures for the relief of the uneT1a- pleyed and for the aid of the wives and widows of soldiers and the wounded We must, however, refuse to resort to measures which are sure to fail,
 "Just now, when our brothers in uniforms on all fronts must withstand a mighty onslaught by the armies of our enemies and must make unde- scribable sacrifices and when just be- fore the harvest, the food supply pre- sents the greatest difficulties, each theughtless action may be fatal and above all strike labor itself the se- verest blow:
 "Our most important task is to aid is the speedy coming of peace. The eenapetent organization in the labor
 movement is conscious of this great duty and is working untiEiagiy to fui= fill it."
