SOME COMMUNITIES HAVE
CONQUERED TYPHOID
State Board of Health Warns Public
Omciais OF Their Responxi-
billties

The State Board OF Health is maxi
ing a special effort just now to con-
vince public officials Of Virginia Of
their responsibility in connection with
disease prevention. An official of the
board said yesterday;
We know and all admit that ty-
phoid fever. for instance. is one of
the most easily preventable OF all the
preventable diseases. Furthermore. 1t
Is a well-known fact that those com
munities fortunate enough to have
alert and intelligent officials who have
adopted the methods urged upon all
communities. have practically elmi-
mated typhoid fever. 1t is also fact
that what has been done by one COM
munity can be done by another. for
the cost OF prevention Is SO small that
every community in Virginia could
take the precautions that will prevent
typhoid fever and other diseases with
out in the lcas, putting strain on
their economic resources.
The misery. suffering. death and
economic loss due to the neglect by
those in authority to adopt measures
OF prevention are appalling. For in
stance, II Is estimated that 80 per
cent OF the education In the Southern
States is wasted owing TO backward
mentality OF children due TO hook
worm infection. In the same category
with typhoid and hookworm are dysen-
terry. diarrhoea. infantile paralysis. etc.
all diseases OF filth and spread because
the public authorities and the people
are not taking proper measures to dis
pose Of excrement.
Our greatest trouble in Virginia, as
II Is in other States. is in the rural
sections In most cities the problem
OF prevention has been largely solved
by the water carriage OF sewage. But
even in the cities there are many relics
OF the deadly disease-spreading type
Of clubhouse or privy. The health OF
those who live in the country could
be made much better than the health
OF those who live in cities by the OBJ
servance OF ordinary hygienic precau-
lions. In some areas disease Is four
times more prevalent In rural than
in urban sections.
"A large percentage Of the i'll health
in the country districts is due TO in
adequate privies. There are many
areas where there are no privies at
all. The remedy Is very simple and
easy Of application. No great ex-
pense is involved and the methods can
be explained to and comprehend by
the most ignorant. There is no COM
munity in this State which has not
sufficient resources to dispose safely of
the human 'excreta. and when that is
done typhoid, dv5entery, hookworm
and host OF other diseases will dis
appear"
