CUBA OWES MUCH TO GORGAs
Work OF American Medical Officer
Converted island From Plague
Spot to Pleasure Resort.

Cubans take a great deal Of pride in
the Prado, a splendid avenue about two
miles in length extending from a
charming park to the Havana water
front. Several years ago the tourist
who had walked on the Prado was
generally held to have risked his life
by mingling with the crowd, when yell
low fever sc0urged Cuba annually.
Malaria was also frequent, and Ha-
vana had the reputation Of being one
of the unhealtIliest places in the
world.
In 1901 General Gorgas. then &
major, became sanitary officer at Ia-
vana, and dealt SO effectively with the
terrible plague that by 1910 not 4
case had originated in the city: The
successful fight against the fever was
due to the remarkable discoveries Ivy
American physicians that these dis
eases were transmitted by mosquitoes.
The fight against yellow fever helped
to curb other epidemics.
Havana has generally been eXuaor-
dinarly prosperous. Under the harsh
Spanish rule at a time when only n
tenth of the land in Cuba was cult
waited the island was able to pay
Spain between S20.000Oo0 and $4,000
000 annually The world shortage Of
sugar has made tlis prosperity Of the
past seem q small matter, Million
aires have been made over night, the
CUbans having SO much money and
entertaining so many millionaires from
America that Havana is not a good
place for a poor man to visit.

PATENT OFFICE BUSY PLACE
LAST Year Broke All Records in the
Number of inventions That
Were Filed.

Last year was a record year in VOL
ume if not quality of inventions APP
plicatiOns for patents reaching the
patent office during 1919 approached
the unprecedented number of 10000,
more than any years output. The in
crease grew with the year, Aaron
Hardy Ulm writes in the Nations
Business. Those for the third quarter
exceeded by 81 per cent receipts of the
same quarter in 1918.
Invention, of course, did not sus-
pend during the war, but, at least in
volume of production, it diminished.
And a great proportion of that which
did function related to war objects.
But at noon on November II, 1918, the
great war became as ancient to the In
ventor as the Peloponnesian conflicts
of long ago.
In October, 1919, there reached the
division of the patent Office handling
metallurgical inventions a total Of 662
applications for patents. In one divi-
sion handling chemical subjects-there
are several chemical divisions-4S9
applications were filed; in the agricul-
tural implement division, 354 applica-
tons arrived; and the division dealing
with vehicle wheels and such appurte-
nances received 729 applications, about
one-half of which related to resilient
tires. This last item discloses the fact
that inventions for the automobile in
dustry best reflect the current work Of
the patent office.
In October, for instance, Al applica-
tons went to the division that handles
automobile engines and parts. That,
considering frame work and gearing.
