Mrs. Brown, mother OF the boy
taken to the hospital yesterday over
the telephone stated to the Dispatch
that her son and others in the family
had been vaccinated last Sunday,
March 18. He went to school on
Monday and Tuesday but on coming
home on Tuesday he complained OF
headache and general indisposition
and she put him to bed He con-
tinued to have fever and headache
Wednesday and Thursday She had
advised the family doctor who ad-
ministered the vaccine and he told
her there was nothing to be alarmed
about. On Friday there had appeared
a pimple or two that made her
bit worried and she asked the doctor
to come to see the boy. Then yes
terday morning the child was broken
out with a pustule or two that added
to Mrs. Browns fears and she again
called the doctor and the health
officer came, the visits resulting in
the decision to isolate the child for
a few days 1t was the statement
of the health officer that the boy
will not have to be away from home
long as it is regarded as certain that
the trouble will soon pass.

Robert Ash Develops What

Vaccinia

Discovery OF family at 246 Six

are two children whose cases OF
illness have been diagnosed as the
convalescent stage of smallpox was
the only fact OF Importance in the
health situation IL the city ana it's
environs for the "a hours ending last
night at 6. A case of what Dr.
George M Dunno classed as vaccinia
appeared and the patient, Robert
Ash, aged IL years, son of Mrs Roy
r. Brown, of 951 Twelfth street. sent
that boy to the isolation hospital. It
was the statement of the family
physician that it was purely effects
of the vaccination and this was con-
Cured in by the health officer with
the qualification that while that was
true it also was contagious, just as
the disease.
The family on Sixteenth street, E.
Alvarado, appears to have been
bothered with the trouble for some
days and the health authorities say
that the patients are already peeling
off and will be past the contagious
stage in short time. No definite
trace of that exposure had been
announced last night. Adding the
Sixteenth street cases to the score
previously standing, there would now
be a total of 18 cases since the
original discovery. That does not

il it were paved it would i'm
meditely take the burden of traffic
that is now running over other
highways of the state.
The oiled surface highway is a
good highway but requires main
tenance in about the same degree,
it is understood, as does the ordin-
ary gravel surfaced hinlway so that
the tremendous BURDEN of main
tenance which the state has hoped
to do away with through paving
will remain if the bureau of public
roads overrules the state.
That the federal aid for oiling
would eliminate the hope of secur-
ing federal aid paving in the future,
ii it is found necessary to pave due
to inferiority of Sthe oiled surface,
was advanced as an objection. it is
understood and it is said to have
been agreed that stipulation
would be made that if the oiled
surface did not prove satisfactory
then the federal, aid for paving
should be advanced at some future
time as it had been expected it
would be advanced within the next
two years "a
This new angle 70 the already
much discussed highway 80 situa-
tion has created no little argument
and comment among the tax payers
of this part of the state within the
course of a half day since it has
been noised about that such thing
as oiled surface is contemplated.
1t is pointed out that an oiled
surface, properly administered
would be an improvement over an
gravel surface but that the
cost which has been
the burden of the past would still
exist while the real reason for the
rebuilding of the highway, that of
securing for the Broadway of
America, it's just amount of traffic,
will not be served unless the high
way is actually paved with concrete
or some other durable, maintenance

PLACIDITY NOT
PRODUCT OF OIL
ON HIGHWAY 80
Reports Afloat That Fed
eral Aid Will Be for Oil
ing and Not Paving

| That the federal government is
to make an attempt to satisfy the
Douglas-Bisbee district with an oil
surface in the place of paving on
| the highway 80 between Douglas
and Rodeo was the essences. of a
statement issued last evening from
unofficial but authoritative sources.
With the. announcement that the
surveys of the highway have been
approved by the bureau of public
roads, James F. Mcdonald, state
highway commissioner for this dis
trict announced yesterday that the
construction bids would be called
for in several sections and that the
construction between Douglas and
Silver Creek which will be the first
link, will be diided into two parts
so that two different contractors
may secure the contracts and thus
have work progressing in two
places at once.
The statement that no paving
could be secured by federal aid at
the present time came yesterday
evening. 1t is understood that the
bureau of public roads takes the
stand that there are other highways
in the state such as that between
Phoenix and Florence or in the
northern part of the state where
the traffic is as much as 1900 cars
a day while the estimated traffic
over the Douglas-Rodeo link at this
time is 800 or less daily.
For this reason they argue that
these other highways should be paw
ed first. State highway officials
attempting to secure the federal aid
for paving have pointed out that
the Douglas-Rodeo link has not
been properly maintained and that

Some interesting disclosures are COM

for the relief Of American diplomatic
and consular officers. whose private

thousands OF dollars lost through thefts.

The committee has unearthed the
fact that the largest thetts have oc-

itself. Moreover. II has found that In
one case It took the department one
year and seven months 10 discover
that $4,000 had been taken from
diplomatic pouch, and In another case
two years to learn that 81 900 had been
stolen.
Meanwhile consular and diplomatic
officers In the field have been held re-
aponsible for these losses and the conf
mittee Is recommending special lcgis-
lation to relieve them. Four bills have
been reported out 10 this end.
Charged with $4,000 Loss.
The largest single loss is one Of $l0.-
900. for which G. s. Winans. consul
at Prague. Czechoslovakia. is held re-
sponsibe The money was sent to the
department In November. 1920. at which
time Mr.. WinanS was receiving about
$40 900 u month In consular fees and
could not remit to Washington by check
due to the fiuctuation Of European ex-
change. MIR. Winans took receipt for
the money from the American Lega-
ton In Prague. and there were Wit

the pouch, When the pouch arrived In
Washington the seals were intact. But
"A year and seven months later MIR,
Wlnans was notified that the money
had not been received and that he was
charged with the missing $4,000.

course to govern his actions during the

or deep laid about it. Looking back,
now, over the day-to-day proceedings

Hughes faced and dealt with each new
situation in the same way. His actions
were governed by belief that his coun-

and therefore there was nothing to
hide. nothing to fear. in talking
about II.
No sooner had the shoutings incident
to the colorful converting OF the con-
gress died away than DR.. Honorio

to the United States and the leader Of
his country's delegation to Havana
moved that all the proceedings Of the
conference be given full publicity. Pro-
posal of this precedent precluding secret
sessions at large international gather
ings was sudden and unexpected. And
1t was regarded as distinctly dangerous
for the United States-for through 1t
would come the opportunity to bring
into the open all Of those subjects which
the United States might prefer to have
discussed In secrecy. But before DR..
Pueyrredon had resumed his seat Mr.
Hughes had seconded the motion. 1t
was carried. and afterward DR.. Pueyr-
