"Sleeping Sickness"
Cases Discovered In
Citv, But Not Serious
Keasbey and Roosevelt Women
Stricken With Strange Sick
ness Suspect Cases Here

Encophalitis lethargica or the So
called sleeping sickness" which has
appeared in many communities has
cropped out in several places in and
near this city. This disease is very
difficult to diagnose and the physi-
clans here are not absolutely certain
in some cases whether the disease is
the dread sleeping Sickness" or mild
form of paralytic stroke, which passes
away after an attack of several days.
However, this theory has not a sound
foundation as paralysis affects persons
usually well along in years, while the
cases of the peculiar disease here has
afflicted only middle aged persons.
This encophalitis is something on
the order of memengitis, affecting the
brain tissues causing them to become
inf1amed severely, so that the cranial
nerves do not function. This is then
followed by paralysis of the eyelids,
hence the name sleeping sickness"
Also the speech is impaired, and the
persons taken down with the disease
are in a continuous stupor and sleep
ing condition.
The disease most generally is an af-
ter effect of influenza epidemicS, but
It has been known to appear without
any previous pandemic having swept
a section of the world. The cause is
not positively known by physicians
and it has not yet been definitely as
certalneu Wnetner the lnnuenZa pa
chilli enter into the origin of the dis
case.
Case I'm Keasbey.
One case which appears very serious
is now under the supervision of DR..
Charles ]. Silk. who is making a care
full examination into the cause and
effects of the case. Mrs. Martha Ma
,,tochi. of Keasbey, was returning from
church about 1880 o'clock Sunday af-
ternoon, when suddenly she was seized
with fainting spell. She was taken
home by passersby and Immediately
went into a stuporous condition in
which she still remains. The woman
also has slight paralysis of the right
arm and can not utter word. Per-
sons are able to arouse her for min
ute, but almost at once the seeming
trance comes on again.
Roosevelt Woman Stricken
Another case has appeared in q
woman from Roosevelt who has since
been removed to the City Hospital.
She Is Mrs. Mike Gubich, who a week
ago yesterday tainted on the street
and almost at once went into a deep
sleep. She was in that condition for
nearly three days and during that
period had paralysis of the right side.
Mrs. Gubich, however, is fast improv-
ing and is able to humble unintelli-
gibly at the present time. IL is
thought that she will entirely recover
within a few days.
Several other physicians in the city
have noted peculiar cases among
their patients which appear as mild
form of paralysis yet did not take the
same course as paralytic stroke.
These cases are something on the
order of menengitis and, IL is thought,
certain form of hysteria.

LONDON, March 20:-Virtually all
of Ukraine now is in possession of
the Bolsheviki, according to advices
reaching London today. In heavy

French garrison after fierce fighting
to withdraw to Odessa.
Farther east. the advices add, the
Bolsheviki have reached the isthmus

gagged in n strong effort to subdue

900 COPIES OF

EDITION LEFT

The demand for the Imperial Valley
Press "Valley to the Sea" edition has
been unprecedented.
This morning careful estimate of
the number of copies left placed the
number at 500 and this number has
been rapidly dwindling all day.
Copies of the edition will be sent to
every United States senator and to
each congressman at Washington.
Copies will also go to the principal
newspaper of the United States.
The best compliment the Press has
received has been from the recorders
of Ell Centre and Imperial Valley peo.
pie who have expressed their satis-
faction and appreciation by returning,
some of them several times, and pur.
chasing more copies, saying that they
wished to send them back east to their
friends.
The large amount of data concern
ing the Imperial Valley has been very
favOrably commented on as the best
kind of advertising for the valley,
when the edition is sent east. :.

THE FOREIGN SPEAKING

In an address Inst delivered to = society Of Polish
speaking people. Herbert Hoover called attantion to the
activities Of persons Of foreign birtis or recent foreign
extraction, in violation Of the laws Of the United States,
and in controvention. Of the entire spirit which under
lies American institutions. and he pointed out that one
natural and inevitable fact Of such activities by these
persons will be to cast q cloud OF suspicion on all tor
eign elements among us; to create 4 state OF mind on
the part Of native Americans which will work grave
hardships upon others Of their fellow citizens who are
equally law-abidinE with themselves. The warning ut.
tered by Mr.. Hoover Is a timely one. It is true that BY
no means all OF the sedition and. anarchy to be found
In the United States is among those who are recently
from Europe. Some native born Americans are among
the worst offenders, but 1t is true that the spirit which
lies underneath all these activities Is Of foreign extrac-
ton, and not Of American growth. Some native Amer
leans have adopted it, but it is foreign nevertheless.
The danger to the orderly and patriotic among those
Of our citizens who speak foreign languages is a very
present and very real one. When the United States en-
tered the war against Germany there were great num-
oers OF American citizens OF German origin whose tt
was a ,sinsularily difficult and Unfortunate one. They
were patriotic Americans. Their ideals were those of
the American republic. They loved the land which had
become their home and were ready to make any sacri-
flee for it. But the fact that their names had a German
sound. or that English words fell from their tongues
with . German twist. caused many Of them to be looked
upon with suspicion because of the fact that others sit-
mated as they were were had been proven guilty of every
form of treachery to the nation which had sheltered
them and the people among whom they had lived. 1t
became necessary tor those persons who were thus I'M
JUSTLY placed under suspicion to work and speak with
exceeding care, for innocent acts on their part were like.
ly to be misinterpreted. and to bring them into trouble.
Similar situations exist now with reference to a very
large proportion Of the foreign element among US. That
element is in process, OF being arnalgamated with the
general body Of American citizenship, but the pernicious
activities Of a few have made the lot of the entire body
much more din1cult. The foreign speaking among us
can do themselves no greater service than to root ont
from every place where~it has taken root among them,
the poisonous plant Of sedition and anarchy.
