THREE THINGS STOP
SPREAD OF TYPHOID
These Are Disposal of Sewage, Cook
ing of Oysters and Preventive
incubation.

There are three things which seem
necessary TO check the spread OF ty-
phoid fever which has been rather
more prevalent In Pensacola the last
few weeks than usual The first is
the proper disposal of sewage, the sec
ond is the cooking OF all oysters be-
fore eating, the third is the preven-
tive incubation or vaccination.
OF course every one knows now that
typhoid germs are present in the
stools OF typhoid carriers and of pa
tients during the, attack as well as be-
fore and after the attack. Everyone
ought to know too that flies breed in
filth, visit the open privy where they
get their feet dirty, and they fly with
their dirty feet and perhaps with the
germs of disease chnging to them to
the kitchen and dining room where
they track over our food and battle in
our drink. Everyone ought, then, to
realize the need of connecting with
the sewer or building a. sanitary, fly
tight privy so that the flies could
neither breed in them or 20 there to
get their feet dirty with filth and dis
ease germs. Right now the state
board OF health is serving notices on
certain people TO construct sanitary
privies and many are complying read
lily with the sanitary requirements.
but there are a few who either fail to
appreciate the need of sanitation or
have insufficient regard for the in
terests OF the community and there
fore have failed, so far to comply. It
is hoped that such can be made 20 see
the light without instituting legal pro-
ceedings, but it seems likely that some
win have to explain it TO the judge"
Positive evidence is lacking TO prove
the connection OF the oyster with the
spread Of disease in Pensacola, but the
fact that practically all persons who
have had typhoid have eaten raw oys-
tiers is so significant that il seems
highly advisable TO eat only cooked
oysters. unless 1t is positively known
that they are taken far from the sewer
outlets.
The preventive incubation against
typhoid is now so well established as
it's use in the army have established
its value beyond doubt, but it is never
to be relied upon to the exclusion Of
ordinary sanitary precautions such as
are mentioned above.
On Monday, March 13, DR.. Brink
win offer free vaccination at the lab
oratory, also on the two succeeding
Mondays, the goth and 9th. All who
wish to have this treatment at the
laboratory should come on Monday.
the 18th, as there is no assurance that
it will be available for more than three
Monday, and since it is given in
three doses, one week apart, it will
be necessary to take the first dose
tomorrow.
1t is earnestly hoped that many win |
be immunized, either by the family /!
physician or at the laboratory.

WILLING TO PAY
From Bradstreet'sl

Assurances have now been received
from three of the principal Allied govern.
ments that they have no desire to uues-
tion the justice of the claim of the United
States to be reimbursed for the expenses
of its army of occupation on the Rhine.
The French government expressed a
couple of weeks ago its recognition of
the right of the United States to com.
plete reimbursement for it's costs of oc.
cupaton. The Belgian government la
ter indicated it's acQuiescence in the jus-
tlce of the American position and an
nounced its intention to consult with the
other Allied governments in order to
reach solution of the matter. With the
publication of the Belgian note, Secre-
tary Hughes gave out this week the text
OF note from Lord Curzon, the British
Foreign Secretary, saying that it would
be impossible to question the claim of
the United States without indifference to
manifest considerations of justice and a
failure to recognize the part played by
the United States in the war and the sub
sequent occupation. He also said that it
was the earnest desire of the British gov
ernment that means should be found with
as little delay as possible to give practi-
cal effect to the wishes of the United
States government as explained by Sec
retary Hughes. AS the three govern
ments mentioned are the ones most con-
cerned in the matter outside of the Unit
ed States, it is expected that notes of the
same general tenor will be received from
Italy and Japan.
