The committee recommends the fol-

control the disease:
Requirement that all recognized
and suspected cases be promptly re-
ported; isolation of patients in screen

disinfection Of body discharges; re-
of movements of intimate as

clusion of children Of the family from

OF children from contact with other
children or the general public during
epidemics; observation of contact for

MILLS APPEAL FOR HELP.
ANDERSON COMPANY CALLS ON
GOVERNOR TO END STRIKE.
Assistance Requested i'm Inforcin-
Units of Ejcctmcnt Issued by Mag
istrate Cox at Equinox Plant.

Anderson, Nov. 4.-The las
ment of the Equinox mills has ap-
pealed to Gov. Manning for assistance
In inforcing the writs Of ejectment
that have been issued by Magistrate
Cox against seven former employees Of
the mills. These seven are strikers
and the management is now seeking
to cause them to vacate their cottages
in the mill village. The strike &C.
Cured August 81 and the m%bachinery
has been idle since that date. Rules
were served on ten of the employees
to show cause why writs Of ejectment
should not be issued. The strikers
employed counsel and the cases have
been heard by the magistrate at the
rate of one a day. In the seven cases
so far tried the writs of ejectment
were issued. Two Of the defendants
have vacated their cottages, one NOW
ing his household goods himself and
the other allowing the magistrates
constables to remove his effects. When
the constables went to the mill viii
lage Thursday to serve another of
the writs he returned to the magis-
trate and reported that he had made
no effort to remove the household
goods because strikers had congre-
gated and showed intimidation. In
company with another constable,
Magistrate Cox's constable went back
to the mill village yesterday to eject
the man and they returned declaring
that they were resisted by armed
strikers. There are three cases We,
to be heard by the magistrate agains,
Equinox strikers m 19 cases agains,
Gluck mill strikers. The Gluck and
Equinox mills are under the same
management. Being unable to secure
the Enforcement of the writs Of eject.
ment as issued by Magistrate Cox, the
management has appealed to Gov
Manning.
The situation at Anderson is seri.
ous," Gov. Manning said last night
when asked for an expression on tho
