PUBLIC IS ASKED
TO HELP FIGHT FLU
Copeland Clues Simple Rules
That Will Help.

DR.. Royal S. Copeland, New York
against a recurrence OF the influenza cpl
demic. In bulletin issued yesterday he
asks the city's 10000 to aid him and
their neighbors by observing simple rules
OF hygiene. such as the Immediate treat
ment OF colds and the instant report to
the nearest health authority or physician
of any case that manifests the slightest
symptoms OF flu.
Dr. Copeland says that too much con-
fidence must not be placed In prevent
i've serume, inasmuch as the caustive
germ has not yet been certainly defined.
The bulletin has 1t that 80 per cent of
the deaths during the flu epidemic last
year were due to pneumonia. induced by
the iu-secondary pneumonia.
A conference was held recently in the
offices of the Department of Health,
where It was decided to bend every effort
toward the study of the so-called infiu-
enzs bacillus the filterable vruses and
and the pneumococci as possible factors
in common colds and influenza leading
to pneumonia At that conference were

But the thefts are not confined by any
means to Liberty issues. Railroad and

are among the missing. This was

as very significant feature of the whole
situation. ut indicates that no matter
how hard a bond may be to negotiate

lustrate just how significant this point
appears, he pointed out that only re-

THE surety companies" he said. ARE
now investigating the process by which
the bond was marketed and found its
way into the ordinary routine of reputa-
BILE dealings" One impression which Is
ally as the result of the many successful
robberies is that. there Is an organized
clique back of the whole situation-a
clique through which a perfectly honest
messenger boy of immature years Is per-
suaded by glittering prospects of a rosy
future to become an absconder. That
this organization has connections Of
high repute is the theory held by many.

Not a little criticism has been aimed
at the police for their failure to stop or
even to check the epidemic. OF all
the robberles reported In recent mnnths
comparatively few have been c.eared
up and only In rare cases have arrests
been made. Wall Street men. however,
are taking full cognizance of the situa-
ton, and they firmly believe that by CO.
operation between themselves and the
surety company. aided by the efforts of
the police, an end can be put TO the
thievery.
