Presidential Disease Will Filter

The prevalence of plague, typhus and
other pestilential diseases throughout
Asia and some parts OF eastern Europe
is a danger signal. which this country
cannot afford to disregard.
Health officers In Europe fear these
diseases will become epidemic in west

possible to stop them at the frontiers.
In spite OF their efforts the diseases
are altering through and have already

which ships leave for the United States.
AS result officers OF the United

duty at these ports TO prevent the dis

tine officers at all OF the American
ports have redoubled their vigilance to
prevent any Of the infections gaining
foothold on American soil.
Despite these precautions, there is
and will be a constant danger OF these
diseases breaking through this SAINT

Typhus is spread By the body louise.

In the opinion of many authorities

to make typhus a serious menace, and
possibly this view Is correct.
However. We have our full share OF
rats. Conservative estimates after sur

the rat population Is about the same

The situation Is so chaotic at pres

as to the relative importance OF is
sues. Whether the treaty will be an
issue or not will depend upon the ac-
ton OF the senate. While am anx-
iously hoping that the treaty will
soon be ratified, and the league OF

turn our attention to the domestic
questions and do our duty to the
world, no one can speak with any
assurance at this time.
Whether prohibition will be an i'm

New Jersey legislature, in attempting
to nullify the enforcement act Of
