lem will re-appear but not as severe
as last winter.
Probably, but by no means GER
| tainly, there will be recurrence Of
the influenza epidemic this year" says
General Blue
One Attack Brings Immunity
Indications are that should it oc-
cur, it will not be as severe as the
pandcnic Of the previous winter. City
officials, state and city boards of
health, should be prepared in the event
of a recurrence. The fact that a
previous attack brings immunity in
a certain percentage Of cases should
allay fear on the part of those af-
f1icted IN the previous epidemic.
Influenza is spread by direct and
indirect contact 1t is not yet certain
that the germ has been isolated, or
discovered, and as consequence there
is yet no positive preventive, except
the enforcement of rigid rules Of san
itation and the avoidance of personal
contact. A close relation between the
influenza pandemic and the constant
ly increasing pneumonia mortality
rate prior to the fall of 1919 is recog-
nized. 1t is now believed that the
disease was pretty widely dissent
mated throughout the country before
it was recognized IN its epidemic
state This failure to recognize the
early cases appears to have largely
been due to the fact that every inter-
est was then centered on the war
Not one of the many experts Of the
service would make more positive
forecast. All agreed, however, that a
recurrence was not unlikely, and IN
the face of the known facts, that it
would be wise to be prepared.
Contrary to the opinion express
frequently during the early weeks of
last years pandemic by a number of
observers, the studies of the public
health service indicate that the cpl
demic was not a fresh importation
from abroad. Careful study of the
mortality statistics of the United
States shows that there were num-
Der of extensive though mild fore
runners during the previous three or
four years.
Despite the fact that there is still
some uncertainty as to the nature of
the micro-organism causing influenza,
one thing is certain that the disease
is communicable from person to per-
son. Moreover, judging from expert
ence in other disease, it is possible
that the germ, whatever its nature, is
carried about not only by those who
arc i'll with influenza, but by persons
who may be entirely well. Everything
which increases personal contact,
therefore, should be regarded as a
factor in spreading influenza.
Now Is Time to Prepare.
'There should be no repetition of
the extensive suffering and distress
which accompanied last years pan
demic. Communities should make plans
now for dealing with any recurrence.
The most promising way to deal with
a possible recurrence is, to sum it up
in single word, preparedness, and
now is the time to prepare.
mo mention has been made here
of cure, or specific So far as the
most careful scientific Investigations
have been able to determine, none has
been discovered, the suggested rene
dies which gave most encouragement
are even now in their experimental
stage. - Minneapolis Tribune.

BUyLDINC COSTS.

N connection with the effort about to be made here to
stimulate building, some Of the outstanding facts of
inquiry which the Secretary Of Labor caused to be made
into building conditions throughout the country of con-
siderable interest.
Perhaps the most significant of these facts is that at the
close Of the war building materials showed an increase over
the figures of 1913 Of but 81 per cent while the increase
for commodities not used in building was over ! l3 per
cent This taken in co., ton with the marked scarcity
of building material due 10 the almost complete suspension
Of producing during the war, and the fact that
the peace treaty has been signed and the people Of
France, Belgium and the other foushover turn
to reconstruction, there will be large demand from that
quarter Of the world upon this country indicates that little
drop IN prices can be looked for
The man who has made up his mind 10 wait until build
ing costs return to normal therefore is going to wait
long time unless he changes his mind And as an induce
men to change Of mind the experts Of the government
who have been investigating this subject note that during
the and right down TO the present the values Of real
estate have stood practically STILL Therefore, as they put
it 1t may well happen that the man who buys lot today
and builds upon house the cost Of which is not greatly
out Of proportion the cost of the land will be better off
year from now than he would be he left the money
the banks in the meantime City land is now the least in
fated of all material wealth"
