II read in today's paper the an

FLU SITUATION
UNDER CONTROL,
SAY CITY HEADS
Physicians Must Report Every
Case to City officials For
ty-one Cases Known in the
City at s Last Night,

That the Spanish influenza situa-
ton in Albuquerque is pretty well
in hand al the result of the prompt
and effective prevention measures
adopted by the authorities, was IN
dicated by the reports presented at
a special meeting of the city COM
mission last night.
Because the physicians of Albu-
querque have been a bit negligent in
reporting cases to the city physic-
ian's office, the exact number OF
cases of the disease now existing in
the city, cannot be definitely deter
mined. Up to o'clock last night
only forty-one cases had been oftici-
ally reported. 1t is believed that
there are at least twice as many cases
as have been reported.
In order to get more accurate
idea of )he fluenza situation, the
commissioners last night ordered
the city marshal to notify all physic-
ians by telephone this morning that
they must comply with the ordinance
requiring them to report promptly
all contagious and infectious diseases
as soon as the diagnosis has been
completed.
Information available at the COM
missioners' meeting last night was to
the effect that the rules governing
the partial quarantine of the city o
stamp out Spanish influenza are be-
ing we'll observed by the people gem
orally The commissioners realize
that only by the use of severe meas
ures will the end in view be accom-
plished
TO aid in combating the spread
of the disease, the commissioners, at
the suggestion of City Physician e,
M. Clayton issued an order urging
all parents to keep their children as
much as possible at home in their
own yards. Closing the schools will
not have the effect desired, if the
children are permitted to increase the
possibility of contracting the disease
by playing with other children, in
whose homes, in many cases, the
Spanish influenza already exists.
House to house canvassers are pro-
hibited from carrying on their work
until the ban of the partial quaran-
tine is lifted, according to a rule adj
donted by the commission.
Housewives, janitors and others
are requested to keep down the dust
while sweeping. by sprinkling their
floors and carpets with water or
some other dust dispelling material.
People generally are cooperating
with the authorities in their efforts
to make Albuquerque as safe as pos
sble from the effects of the disease,
which is now sweeping the country,
A special meeting of the board of
health was held yesterday to assist
the commissioners in their fight
against the further invasion of the
Spanish fluenZa.

CLOSING ORDER
INTO EFFECT IN
ENTIRE COUNTY

NJ. X. Wylder, county physician, w.
G., Hope of the county board of health,
and A. Montoya, county school super
intendent, were empowered to cause
cessation for the time being of all
public meetings in the county and to
close the schools of the county, at a
meeting of the county commissioners.
The officials were instructed to close
such schools as thew believe to he in
danger from the epidemic of influ
cnza, giving special attention to schools
in the immediate vicinit yof Albuquer-
que.
The commissioners suggested that
where necessary, church services
dances and all other public gatherings
be discontinued until such time as the
health officials believe the danger is
past.
A special appeal was made that all
persons in the county shall observe
the closing orders in order that the
general health may not be impaired.

And a large measure Of public
