Follow Severity to Prisoners.

London, June 30 Referring 10 the

with the idea Of enforcing the supply

DR.. Koplik suggested that parents in
affected districts be warned TO watch
for and TO report to the Health Depart
ment cases Of illness even remotely
resembling infantile paralysis.
The Importance of their doing so
was emphasized by DR.. Draper, who
said that non paralyzed cases had been
numerous in certain epldemlcs and
were especially dangerous because not
easily detected and therefore likely TO
cause the rapid spread of the disease.
The committee of doctors expressed
its willingness to hold consultations
over cases of doubtful diagnosis, but it
was decided that the departments in
spectors could efficiently decide dag
nosis questions correctly.

German wire and trenches. The new
type Of British mortar is capable Of
such rapid fire that six shots in the air
at once proved highly scrviceablc, both

Last night the sky from twenty to

glare Of the aurora borealis. from dusk

tion along the roads for the movement
Of trucks and automobiles, none Of

From a point near n group OF bat

and darts of fire over the area of

To-day the sun is breaking through
the overcast sky for the first time in
three days. and is welcome TO the artil-
lery observers.
Identify German Troops.
Through raids covered hv contin-
uous bombardment, the British, this
week. have taken prisoners by whom
they have identified every German bat
talon opposite their lines. Some of
the prisoners say that the British fire
has been so heavy that II has DESTROYED
the communication trenches, and that
the Germans have been unable 70 bring
up food 70 their front line for three
days.
it is stated that the Germans have
Withdrawn from their Nerdun front
the 18th Bavarian division. and the 22d
Reserve Corps. and from their Cham
pagne front tho 10th Corps for the re-
enforcement Of Field Marshal Won Hin

said that il is probable also that three
additional divisions were sent 10 Rus
s;a from the British front recently.
Last Word in War Science.
The plan Of operations now being
used by the British. which the French
seem 10 be adopting, is the last word
in scientific warfare declares French
officer who has been in close touch
with operations since the beginning Of
the war.
The nocturnal expeditions Of Brit
ish patrolling parties into German first
line trenches" he said. (which seem 20
many of the uninitiated as without re
suit, become the essential feature or
the attack on lines fortified as those
held by the Germans on this front.
The first thing In order is the destruc-
tion by heavy artillery Of the concrete
shelters, perfected with consummate
science. The second is TO reconnoitre
and make sure that the destruction IS
complete. for a single machine gun left
intact under a shelter can alone stop
an infantry assault The third is the
destruction Of the barbed defences, and
il is only then that infantry can be
prudently ordered TO attack.
The only means OF gaining the alb
solute assurance Of the first object at

these operations British troops are

French, something new in the tactics

First Outbreak in 1901.

DR.. Simon Flexner, Of the Rockefel-
Ter Institute, discoverer of the anti
toxin used in the treatment OF infan-
tile paralysis, was expected at the con
ference, but could not attend. He will
be at a conference Of Brooklyn physi-
clans al the Polhemus Memorial Clinic,
Brooklyn, to-day.
The first known epidemic of infantile
paralysis occurred in Rutland, Vt, in
1901. New York's only other severe
outbreak was in 1907, when there were
approximately $500 cases, Of which
about 100 resulted fatally. Several
adults caught the disease. There was
a comparatively small epidemic in the
city two years later.
In 1913 ffty-iive deaths occurred;
in 1911, thirty-four, and last year, only
thirteen. Until June "a there had been
seventeen deaths during 1916.

MANY IOWANS JOIN
NATIONAL GUARDS

Des Moines, Aug. 3.-More than
fifty recruits for the Iowa National
guard already have enlisted and the
indications are that there will be little
difficulty in recruiting the guard to the
strength required by the Hay-Cham-
berlain act, according to a statement
today by COL George Morgan, United
States army, senior mastering officer
of the Iowa National guard at Fort
Des Moines.
Under the Hay-Chamberlain act the
Iowa guard quota was increased from
approximately $500 to 10000 men.
Colonel Morgan said recruits are
coming for the most part from towns
near Des Moines. When the recruit.
ing campaign is begun, he said, he ex.
