To Rid Ecuador
I of Yellow Fever

the most prominent of them all, hnv-
ing eradicated yellow fever from
Cuba. made sanitation for Panama a
model for the world. and carried the
medical and surgical work Of the
United States army to a degree Of eff
ficiency never known in any army Of
the world before. during the war.
The west coast Of South America
has been severely Handicapped in its
shipping and commercial business by
the>existence Of centers Of yellow fe-
yer infection In a number Of places.
especially at ,Buenaventura. the Pa
cific port of Colombia. and Guayaqull.
the commercial metropolis and port of
Ecuador. A rigid quarantine has had
to be maintained at Panama against
all these ports of western South
America. resulting in much delay to
passengers who have to be held In
quarantine Mt Panama until known to
be free from infection; while cargoes
have frequently had to be fumigated
against mosquitoes and rats, with
much loss of time and money and oc-
casiOnal damage to the cargo.
Two Difficulties Overcome.
Two difficulties have been IN the
way Of eradicating these diseases
from these ports. One has been the
financial expenses, which would be n
heavy charge upon the governments
of the countries involved, and the
relative failure of the people at large
to appreciate the necessity Of i'm
proved sanitation.
The Rockefeller foundation is help
ing to solve the first Of these difficult
ties, and Is indirectly also promoting
the spread of information among the
people 80 as to reduce the Indifference
on the subject. The healthfulness of
the Isthmus Of Panama has been a
good advertisement for sanitation to
South American travellers.
One Of the main difficulties in
arousing public sentiment to demand
the thoroughgoipg elimination Of En-
demic diseases has been the fact that
the population of the ports involved
have become more or less Immune

method of immunization produced BY

But the constant arrival ut these
ports of nonimmune persons from the
Interior or from other countries Keeps
the Infection alive as long as the mos
Quitoes which convey the disease are
in these ports. There is nearly al
ways a sufficient number of cases Of
yellow fever in existence to infect
these mosquitoes. and when new arri-
walls are bitten they are likely to de-
velop the fever. and SO to keep the
epidemic going from one new arrival
to another. The only safe way to get
rid of the fever therefore. is to get
