VACCINE GIVEN
R &v WORKERS.
Immunize Employees OF MuniIion
Factory With Flu Serum Fur
nished by Government

Vaccine, furnished by the gov
eminent for munition workers, will
be administered to employees of the
Root &, VanDervoort Ordnance com
pany and the R. & V. Engineering
company, if present arrangements
are carried out Provisions were
made yesterday to secure the vac
cine and it is expected that the sup
ply will reach East Moline today.
Request of the government and the
state health authorities is that
workers engaged in war work, un-
der government contracts take ad-
vantage of the preventive treatment
Of influenza.
Influenza has already hit the
Root & VanDervoort factories rath-
er severely and there have been
several deaths among employees.
The company is urging that all
workers submit to the vaccine
treatment This vaccine is provid-
ed without any charge whatever
for employees and notices have been
posted throughout the plant ex
planning the plan for administering
the treatment to industrial plants
have been confined to munition fac
tories.
At the beginning of the general
influenza epidemic appeal was made
by government departments to all
war industries that every precau-
ton be taken to prevent inroads Of
the disease into the factory. At r.
& W plants this appeal had been
anticipated and steps were taken to
see that all employees exhibiting
symptoms Immediately sought med
ical attention and that as far as
possible those capable of spreading
the contagion were eliminated from
the plants. These measures, no
doubt, served TO limit to a large
degree the spread of the local cpl
demic in the R. & V. organizations,
but nevertheless a large number
of employees were afflicted. 1t IS
believed that the precautions taken
greatly reduced the number OF
cases and that the vaccine treat
ment will further check the effects
of the epidemic here.

and willing in his service. l had
relieved him Of this duty as he re-
fused to accept any money, and
army regulations forbid such ser
vice without pay.
Through censoring his letters I
learned of the relationship between
you, and hoped that all his dreams
and yours might come true God in
his wisdom has decided otherwise
but l cannot but feel for you and
his mother in your loss. He was
