WARNING OF ANOTHER
INFLUENZA EPIDEMIC
General Rupert Blue Declares Return

General Rupert Blue Declares Return
of Disease is Probable-shouId
Adopt Preventive Measures.
Washington, Sept. 16.-Gen. Ru-
pert Blue of the United States public
health service yesterday issued for
nal warning to the country that while
it is by no means certain, it is entire
ly probable that there will be a re-
currence of the influenza epidemic
this fall. The Indications are that it
viii not be so severe as last fall, but
warning is sent to the city officials
and state and city boards OF health
to prepare for the emergency.
THE fact that a previous attack
brings immunity in a certain precent-
age of cases, should allay fear on the
part of those afflicted in the previous
epidemic" says General Blue
/ Contrary to reports which nave
/ been published from time TO time,
/ General Blue says there is no known
preventive of influenza except the en-
| forcement Of rigid rules of sanitation
and the avoidance of personal con
tact. Last year, the disease was quite
widely disseminated throughout the
country before it was recognized in
its epidemic state and failure to recog
nize it in its early state allowed it to
gain great impetus before concerted
efforts were made to stop it.
Speaking Of the preparations which
should be made for the recurrence Of
the influenza epidemic General Blue
said:
There should be no repetition of
the extensive suffering and distress
which accompanied last years pan
demic Communities should take
pains now for dealing with any recur-
renee of the epidemic. The prompt
recognition fthe early cases and
their effective isolation should be
, aimed at In this connection atten-
ton is called TO be just ordinary
colds. A recent extensive outbreak OF
what were regarded as summer colds
in Peoria, H., proved on investiga
ton to be an epidemic of n mild type

u that these mild epidemics are often
the starting points of more severe Wis
