Flushing Schools Kept

Commissioner Copeland Says
Scarlet Fever Outbreaks Do
Not Constitute Epidenics

Although since October ] there have
been periodic outbreaks of scarlet
fever in several public and parochiai
schools in Flushing, l.. l., Health Com
missioner Copeland decided yesterday
after conference with DR.. S. jose
phine Baker, director Of the Bureau Of
Child Hygiene, and Dr. Louis I. Harris,
director Of the Bureau of Preventablc
Diseases, that the situation is not
serious
ut is our opinion" said Or. Cope
land, that it would be unwise to close
these schools. We have nothing in the
nature Of an epidemic. 1t is much
better for the children to attend school
SO they can have the benefit of daily
examination by doctors and nurses of
the Health Department, who would be
first to find the suspicion of infectious
diseases among the pupils.
with the cooperation of the private
physicians in Queens, if they will re-
port all cases promptly, and compliance
on the part of parents to isolate those
sick with scarlet fever, there is no
danger. Every parent should make
sure each day that his child is appar-
emily well. If there is any doubtu the
child shield be kept from school and
the Health Department notified. Under
no circumstances, il child has fever,
headache, vomiting and sore throat,
should 1T be allowed to go to school"

Lays Crash to Destroyer
Edwin A. Drake, ce-president of
the Panama Railroad Steamship Line
briefly described the mishap as fol
lows:
"lt develops that the destroyer Gra-
nam appeared on the port side of the
Panama and the customary signals were
sounded. For some unaccountable rea-
son the Graham decided to cross the
bow of the Panama" -
An investigation will be made by the
owners of the Panama on Monday and
the navy will conduct a similar in
quiry. Later the officers of both yes
sells will appear at an inquiry that

Steamboat Inspection Service at this

1t was said on both vessels yester-
day that the discipline and coolness
under unusually trying circumstances
displayed by the officers of the Pana-
ma and the Graham could not have
been better.
1t was learned at the navy yard
that Commander w. F. Amsden. the
officer in command of the Graham. was
on the bridge when the Panama
crashed into the destroyer. With him
was Lieutenant Louis de Rochemont.
the deck officer. Realizing that col
lision was inevitable, three blasts were
sounded on the destroyer's whistle.
This meant full speed sstern. She
responded quickly to ner engines, but
it was too late to back out of the way
of the oncoming Panama.
Collision an Enigma
The three blasts were followed by
the screech of the destroyer's siren.
which is the signal for closing the
water-tlght bulkhead doors and for
every one on board to stand by for
orders. 1t was said that three blasts
were also sounded on the Panama, but
she also had too much headway to
avert a crash.
Shipping men generally regard the
collision as an enigma. The weather
was clear and the sea moderate at the
time. The Graham was proceeding
south and the Panama north. If they
we're approaching head on it is gener-
ally believed they could have passed
safely by following the general rule
which requires each vessel to go to
