Five years OF famine have resulted
10 greatly increased mortality and
morbldity to Vienna which before the

by DIR. Gustave Bohn. head OF the
Vienna Health Department, show that

LAUGHTER OF CHILD
SCARCE IN POLAND

"In all the time | was IN Poland, |
scarcely once saw a child laugh.
declared DR. Harry Piotz discoverer OF
the typhus bacillus, In report to
the European Relief Council OH med
Ical conditions among the Jewish popu-
lation of Poland, based on his recent
investigations there for the Jewish
Joint Distribution Committee.
1.-THE most deplorable sight OF all
the mIseries in Poland Is the condi-
tion of the children" DR.. Plotz said.
Infant mortality is exceedingly hlgn
because of under-nourishment and the
high percentage Of contagious diseases.
In large part mothers must resort 10
artificial feeding as they are unable 10
nurse their children. In many cities
I saw underfed children. suffering with
diseases, wandering about the streets
with no place to go, begging for bread
tuberculosis has become prevalent
among the Jewish children, largely
due TO the overcrOwded conditions IN
which they are forced to live. their
lack Of nourishing food and warm
clothing, according to Br. Plotz.
Typhus, which killed thousands OF
Jews last winter in the worst epidemic
Poland has ever seen will recur again
he said, as conditions are much worse
among the Jews than ever before.
"Favus, a contagious skin disease,
Ia now rapidly spreading from child
10 child" he continued. "In wilma
there are 1000 cases among the jew
fish children alone. Smallpox, too, is
prevalent throughout Poland and the
Ukraine and children, with wide
spread eruptions and temperature,
have been seen running about the
streets. There are thousands Of cases
every year, which vaccination would
prevent. but there is no vaccine"
DR.. Plots told how In Lithuanian
villages he found children. six and
seven years old, unable to walk or
talk, the result OF malnutrition. In
regions where whole towns had been
destroyed during the war, be found
ia amllies crowded In miserable Dug
outs.

STATE RIGHTS AND ALASKA

The discussion of Gov. LoWden's [ else of power by State. and the var ious forms of municipal government in the United States naturally caus- es ones mind to turn to the situation in Alaska. The difficulty of applying i his suggestions lies in the circum- stances that the people of this terri tory have not the power to develop their government and to settle local problems They will have to get that before they can assume the duties that are theirs of right. We need full territorial form of government so that the people can take up and settle ques- tions that have remained unsettled for years. The difference between Alas ke and the country in general is that the people of this Territory want the power to do the things they cannot do while in the States trey refuse to ex- ercise the powers tEey have. In both eases the result has been to develop a tendency on the part of the people to go to Washington or some other outside authority for help when they eeght to shoulder the responsibility themselves. The dangers are many: First, things are not nearly so likely te be settled right as they were in the old days when the people acted fer themselves, and, secondly, the people are becoming less resolute and self-reliant. Fifty years ago an Am erican people, situated as Alaska is, would have but one first request to make of the National Government, and that would be for self-government, and the request would have been made again and again until it was granted. -EX.

 The town of Fairbanks is today in better financial condition than at any time in the past ten years, with ap- proximately $13,0O0 in the treasury. Of this amount about $2,OOO, probably less, will be required to cover all outstanding indebtedness, leaving a net balance of $11,000 in round num- bers to the credit of the municipality. '. It is believed that possibly between $3,00O and $4,0OO remain to be collec- ted in taxes. Most of this will be paid into the treasury before the council year ends-Fairbanks News Miner.
