Several additional cases of small

son would submit TO vaccination.
In those countries where vaccina-
ton is made compulsory by law
smallpox is practically unknown, -
said DR.. Freyermuth in al interview.
1t is a crime against society for one
TO have the disease, and if Il Jail
sentence was imposed on every per-
son who was AFFLICTED with the
disease after they were released
from quarantine such treatment
would not be too severe"
The vaccination station viii be
