SPOTTED FEVER
MENACE, SAYS
DR.. C0CSWELL
State Must Move to Curb
Disease, Kiwanians
Are Told.

Montana must take steps to curb
the spread of spotted fever and to
determine its cause and cure, DR.. w.
F. Cogsweli of Helena, secretary of the
state board of health. told members of
the Kiwanis club at their luncheon
meeting Monday in the palm room of
Hotel Rainbow. DIR. Cogsweli warned
that the disease is spreading each year
and breaks out in new parts of the
state.
Last year. he said. there were 4S
eases and II deaths, there being no
record in the health department Of any
time when anyone had contracted the
disease in Cascade county.
1T is appropriate that we should
speak of spotted fever before a Great
Falls audience because the first work
done in the state against spotted fever
was by q Great Falls man." he said.
Back in 1902 when DIR. A. F. Longe-
way of this city WIS the first secretary
of the state health board, he interest
ed some scientists of the University of
Minnesota in the disease. They made
some important discoveries. Then he
interested others and later the United
States public health service took a hand.
81 want you to understand, as all Of
the men who go into this work under
stand. that it is a dangerous job.
Among its victims were Ricketts,. Nc
C1intock, McRae. psychologists of the
state board; and just now have a
telegram from the Hamilton labora-
tories that an assistant there contract
ed the disease in his duties and, al
though everything possible was done
for him. in a week he died. In add
&inn r--rr- ~ fkn Nop-
York laboratories contracted the dis
ease in his work and died.
II tell You these men were martyrs.
and there should be Il tablet erected
to their memory in this state.
AS vet there is much that We do
not know of the disease. We know
that it is contracted from the infected
wood tick. But we know that all wood
ticks are o infected. We must find
out where the wood tick gets the dis
ease.
Some of the best professional men
are interested in the Investigations. but
IT has not been so easy to get the aid
and help of the residents of the state.
For many years the attitude of the
people of the Bitter Root valley. whore
it is most virulent. was that all cases
should be hidden and that news of them
should be suppressed"
He said that the federal budget for
the work this year will be $4,000 and
the state funds available will be 50. 800
for control. He emphasized that the
size of the problem will necessitate
adding to the forces of investigation
if the disease is to be curbed.
Fred J. Perra announced the coming
of Fred p. Mann OF Devils Lake. \. D..
to Great Falls. July 81. when he will
be the guest of the club at luncheon
and will address the merchants and
clerks of the city later in the day. 4
special committee to aid in arrange
mentS for the program was named,
with Mr.. Perra as chairman. The re
port Of Claire Flint on the Toronto
convention will be given at the next

IMPOSSIBLE, SAYS M'MICHAEuS

New York. July 10.-Payment by
Germany Of her war debt to the allies
will be almost impossible without modi-
~fication of the treaty of Versailles, DIR.
George McNIichaels. German chancellor
in 1917. said when questioned in re-
ference to Berlin dispatches that the
allied r~eparatiOns commission would be
asked for a moratorium.
DIR. McMichaels is returning to Ger
many from q six months visit to China
and plans to sail next Saturday on the
George Washington. He explained that
he was looking at Germany through
American newspapers and had been de-
pressed by Saturdays news, but Mon
day was more hopeful, as he saw more
clearly what the present situation was.
Germany Cannot Pay
The one outstanding thing is that
Germany must ask for n moratorium"
he said. THE government says it can't
pay and | believe that to be true. l
know the situation and | can't see how
il is possible for US to pay. Certainly
we amt pay in gold; VIC must pay by
our labor, that is the only thing we've
got. If the treaty of Versailles is to be
carried out, payment is nearly impos-
sible.
1T seems to me- he added. that
America can help most of all. This
by its moral influence must help
TO modify the Versailles treaty"
