Diphtheria Eradication.

. New York State. a pioneer in the
control and prevention of diphtheria,
is opening a five-year campaign which
aims to eradicate diphtheria through
the immuniZation of children by means
of toxin-antitoXin by the end Of 1880,
says the Red Cross Courier. The
participating agencies are the State
and local departments Of health, de-
partment Of education, the medical So
cietieS, the committees on tuberculosis
and public health Of the State Chart
ties Aid Association and the Metropol.
itan Life Insurance Co.
In diphtheria, as DR.. G. f.. A. Wins
low, president of the American Health
Association, says, we can detect the
incipient case and the carrier. We can
measure natural immunity by the
Schick test. We can produce passive
immunity by the use of antitoXin and
active immunity by the use of toxin
antitoxin. Every weapon which could
be needed to fight this enemy is in our
hands. yet diphtheria continues to oc-
cupy third place among the communi-
cable diseases and kill II, 900 or ~ 900

This should serve example for other devel-

can be done in another. The public really has the
whip hand, too for il they would resolve not to live
in that type of development because of the same
ness of the dwellings, the slow sales in those devel
