Anthrax has taken the lives Of
five persons in Chicago. Three vic
Tins were employees of the Chicago
Curled Hair Company and health au-

closed. Officials believe the disease
was contracted from handling hair
imported from Argentine. One of
the other victims was thought to
have become infected from a shaving
brush. Authorities have not learned
how the fifth contracted the disease.
