the resolution offered and adopted
some time ago by the special COM

SCOUTS FEAR OF TYPHUS
FROM MAIL FROM RUSSIA
Post Office Official Declares Danger
Remote and Public Health
Officers on Guard,

Superintendent Of Foreign Mails
Sands of the Post Office Department
said yesterday the department enter
tanned no fear that mail matter from
Russia would spread typhus to the
United States. He made the state
ment in connection with recent re-
ports that postal employees at Riga
had expressed fears that mail leav-
ing certain portions of Russia might
possibly contain typhus germs with
consequent danger to postal re-
cipients in other countries. If such
danger existed, said Mr.. Sands the
public health authorities in New York
would take necessary precautionary
measures.
Some years ago when yellow fever
was prevalent in South America the
Post Office Department inaugurated
plan of punching holes in letters
received from those countries and
spraying contents, where possible,
with an acid mixture, Mr.. Sands ex-
planned. This plan was said to have
resulted in destruction to checks and
other valuable correspondence, and
was discontinued after a brief trial.
There was little danger of infection
even then, he added. although pre-
cautionary steps were thought neces-
sary to allay fear. So far as typhus
germs being imported into this coun-
try was concerned, he said. the pub
lie should not be alarmed by reports
reaching this country from abroad.
