bubcnic and the pneumonia plaques

cial research work and studies at the

said to be one OF the foremost au-
thorities on the pneumonia plague,
which recently has claimed many
lives in Los Angeles.
In the case of bubonic plague. says
DR.. Wu, the germ attacks the lymph
glands. 1t is not contagious, he de-
clares, being transmitted by fieas on
diseased rodents.
When it develops in the pneumonia
form, however. the germ is carried
by the patients cough and thus is
spread with great rapidity, the doc
tor asserted. This form is more fatal
than the bubonic plague, DR.. Wu says
the death rate approaching 100 per
cent. He added that with good sani-
tary control and strict isolation OF
those infected the pneumonia plague
may be speedily controlled
DIR. WI said that in Manchuria-
where he has worked for more than
II years, the plague caused 10000
deaths in 1910. while thousands have
been victims of the disease in smaller
outbreaks. In that country. he said
the plague was spread by hunters OF

stood that it will be used on Sundays
