HEAT HAS LITTLEEFFECT
ON INEANTlLE PARALYSIS
Only a Slight Gain in Deaths and
New Cases Is New York
Report.

NEW YORK. August 2s-New York's
record-breaking heat wave has failed
TO spread the epidemic of infantile pa
ralysis. Only a slight gain was shown
today in the number of deaths and
new cases reported. During the twen-
ty-four-hour period ending at 10 am.
the plague killed forty-two children
and 131 were stricken. This compares
with thirty-nine deaths and i1s cases
during the same period yesterday
Contrary to the general opinion
Health Commissioner Haven Emerson
said today he had no reason to believe
not weather increases the spread of
infantile paralysis. This conclusion,
he added. is the result of an exhaustive
study of the daily temperature and
humidity since the epidemic began and
of the number of new cases occurring
from day to day. Nevertheless. the
commissioner said the present hot
young children who are critically i'll.
Cites Experience in Norway.
"One Of the worst epidemics that ever
occurred took place in Norway in mid
winter. during extreme cold" con-
tinued the commissioner. That seems
to upset any theory that the disease is
fostered by heat. although in this coun-
try the epidemics, as a rule, have taken
place in the summer"
Ninety-nine per cent of the fatalities
from infantile paralysis are caused by
paralysis Of the breathing organs. II is
said This form of the disease is fatal,
regardless of the weather.
In reply to charges that physicians
Of the department of health have made
a large percentage of erroneous dag
noses the commissioner said mistakes
were made in not more than two cases
out of 100.

OTHER DEFENSE MEASURES
RESULT OF CONFERENCE
Expected Board of Commissioners
Will at Once Acquiesce and
Promulgate Regulations.

Quarantine of all members of every
household in which infantile paralysis
develops and placarding of the
premises may be ordered by the Dis
trict Commissioners within the next
few days.
These are the outstanding features
of proposed changes in the Districts
regulations pertaining to infantile
paralysis which Health Officer Wood
ward will recommend to the Commits
sioners.
A conference held at the health de-
partment last night was attended by
Assistant Surgeon General Rucker and
other representatives of the public
health service, representatives Of the
Medical Society of the District and TIE
Washington Homeopathic Medical So
ciety.
Preparing Recommendations.
DR.. Woodward today is preparing to
recommend to the Commissioners the
above changes and others, which will
conform in the main to the minimum
requirements recommended by the con-
ference of state and federal health
officers. which met in this city last
week.
In addition TO the quarantine and
placarding requirements, the confer
ence last night went on record as fa-
vortng the quarantine of all persons ex-
posed to injection for period of two
weeks after their last exposure and
the quarantine of all patients for a
period of six weeks after the onset of
the illness and so much longer as may
be necessary.
These precautions likewise were pro-
posed by the state and federal confer
ence last week. and will be included in
DR.. woodward recommendations
Report of Incomers.
Another recommendation adopted at
the local conference last night, and
which will be submitted to the Com
missioners with DR.. Woodward's ap-
proval, Is that the parent or other re-
sponsible guardian of any child under
sixteen years of age brought into the
District of Columbia from any infected
territory shall be required to report to
the health officer the presence of the
child in this jurisdiction for observa-
tion purposes. regulation to this eff
feet is desired, because at least six OF
the local cases have been traced to
outside infection.
DR.. Woodwards recommendations will
go to the Commissioners tomorrow OF
Friday, and are expected to be imme-
diately approved. 1t is believed that a
way will be found to escape the neces-
sity of giving the usual thirty-day no.
tice by publication before the regula
tions, if they are adopted. can be made
effective.
A new case of the disease was re
