Heavy aghting is now in progress south

and in the vicinity Of Radzivilof, six
miles to the northeast of the strong

Brody lies in Northeastern Galicia and
is regarded as one of the strongest
points on the line guarding Lemberg. Its
fall would force general retirement of
the Teutonic forces in Galicia

have been inflicted on the foe

With twenty-nine baby deaths within

infant sufferers from stomach disorders
District health officials declared yester-
day that the city was facing an epidemic
much graver than the infantile paralysis
To the prolonged heat and the careless
ness Of many mothers in not giving the
proper medical attention to children when
stricken is attributed the high mortality
record from diarrheal troubIes-an in

There have been only seven cases Of
infantile paralysis. no deaths and three
of these cases are reported WELL" added
the doctor, whereas every day children
are coming down with diarrheal COM
plant, incidental to summer and irregu-
larities of diet, and deaths are frequent" ("
The heat Of the present week may bring
the mortality record up much higher.
