2,SO9 IMMIGRANTS
EXAMINED, II HELD
Biggest Days Work Yet in
Shutting Out European
Carriers of Typhus.
HERDED IN BAGGAGE ROOM
Surgeon General Says Quaran-
tine. Not Ellis Island, Is
Barrier to Plaques.

Doctors and nurses of the Health De-
partment had busy Sunday yesterday.
A total of 2.309 immigrants entering the
city from Ellis Island, Philadelphia ana
Boston were examined and seventy
seven were detained as possible typhus
carriers This is the largest number eN-
amlned since the department began its
campaign TO keep European epidemic
spreaders out of this country.
At the Liberty street ferry more
than 1000 were inspected. The immi-
grants we're herded into the baggage
room. where inspectors searched them
for evidence of possible typhus.
Surgeon General Cumming OF the Pub
lie Health Service issued a statement in
which he said:
Much confusion has resulted from
the statements in newspaper interviews
in New York city as TO responsibility OF
theimmigration service at Ellis lslano
, for the exclusion of typhus fever. im-
migration officials are not vested with
any authority of administering quaran-
tine laws. Furthermore, they have no
equipment for enforcing quarantine
measures-naturally so. because they
have control over aliens and not over
citizens of the United States. although
the latter returning from Europe are
Just as serious a menace from the typhus
standpoint as Is an alien.
st Is true that Ellis Islant has al
ways proved a valuable line OF second
defence for the port, but the responsible
ity for the exclusion of typhus and other
quarantine bile diseases rests solely upon
the quarantine authorities. AS a matter
of ordinary decency and personal hygiene
delousing facilities should be provided at
Ellis Island. but since the prevention OF
the introduction OF typhus relates TO re-
turning citizens as we'll as to aliens. the
quarantine station is the one place where
effective preventive measures can be car
ried out"
DR.. Copeland returned last night from
Washington after attending a meeting
of health officers of the Atlantic sea-
board and asking for Federal appro-
priation of $1,250,000 to improve port
facilities against the invasion of typhus.
While at the capital Dr. Copeland. to-
gether with the health officers of Boston.
Philadelphia and Baltimore, called on
I members of Congress to ask their sup
port.
The outlook for speedy cooperation
from port officers of other cities gave DIR.
COPELAND cause for enthusiasm. He was
elected head Of the committee of health
officers and empowered TO confer with
committees of the Senate and House for
the purpose Of obtaining an emergency
appropriation of half a million dollars
for the anti-typhus fight.

1t is Not Wise to

but IL is wise to lay it up "for
a rainy day" without becoming
miserly.
Have you ever read George
Eliot's lovely story of Silas
Mariner, the linen weaver, who
buried his earnings under the
loose bricks of his hearth stone,
and the wonderful miracle that
was wrought out thereby in his
pitiful, overwhelming sorrow,
when all his savings vanished
overnight?
To squander money unthink-
ingly because one has so much
