n Press) DR.. Walter Rathe-
nau. former German Minister
OF Reconstruction and latterly Ger
man representative at various eco

MAKE THEM REPORT

: HE report OF the county health officer cover
j ing the period since his appointment on a
full time basis should be full 81 interest 70 the
people of the county, s5
A full time county health officer is a new thing
for Marion County, but there has been such close
attention given during the last two or three years
to health conditions here by various public school,
and Red Cross and part time health officials that
much work has been done and the ground pretty
thoroughly prepared in advance Of the new depart
ment. y
There Is one thing that the public would like
to see pushed In the administration OF the county
health work, and that Is rigid determination 10
make every physician report cases OF contagious
illness. In the report made public yesterday, a
list Of cases Of contagious and preyentable dis
eases was given, and the remark made I'VE have
reason to beiieyeethis number lis very nearlysc or
rect for the last ninety days. OF course some OF
the doctors may have failed to report their cases
... we think this Is very close the number
There should be no guess work about such dis
eases as typhoid, which was the disease particu-
larly in mind in the foregoing remark. There
should be no question but that every case Of ty-
phoid, dIphtheria scarlet fever, and similar illness
should be promptly reported and filed in the office
Of the county health officer. i Marion county
should know from day to day how things stand in
regard to such serious matters. The public would
highly appreciate rigid requirement that would
demand immediate report of every case of illness
that threatens the health Of others who may be
nearby. ~
