YOUR HEALTH
BY DIR. MORRIS FISHBEIN

80 DAN. -ioAeiNlAo l. IoA1pAL4->
Editor Journal of the American
Medical Association and of Hy-
geia, the Health Magazine.
Whooping cough causes more
deaths than do most of the other
communicable diseases of childhood.
1t is fatal, however, only to the very
young. and the immediate cause of
death is nearly always some Sec
ondary infection.
In 1927. there ware 1921 cases
OF this disease in New York state
with AIS deaths, and 1l,439 cases in
Illinois with sos deaths.
Many Of the cases which are ex-
tremely mild are probably not re-
ported. and In many instances when
death occurs from some compli-
eating cause, the death certificate
does not reveal the actual cause of
death.
Vaccine in Epidemic
For several years attempts have
been made to protect children
against whooping cough by a vac
cine made from the germs which
are associated with the disease.
This vaccine has been in use in all
some is years.
A recent resume of the subject
made by Drs. L. w. Sauer and l..
Hambrecht indicates that the vac
cine IL not valuable unless given
extremely early in times OF cpl
demic. Children are 70 often ex-
posed long before they can be pro-
teetsd against the disease that the
value Of the vaccines In any event Is
extremely doubtful.
These authorities are convinced
that the one certain method Of

UNREST IN MANY

Immediate Separation

BELGRADE, June 24.-Following
the funeral Of Pavel Radie and DR.
Basaricec, leaders Of the Croatian
Peasant Party, shot in the Jugo-Slav
Parliament recently, widespread un-
rest is reported Throughout the coun-
try, especially in the northwest, de-
spatches from Zagreb state. Dis
turbances are reported in many
smaller towns.
Two hundred thousand peasants are
reported to have followed the coffins
bearing the dead politicians to their
graves while thousands more, who
were forced to retire under the guns
Of the governmnt troops at Agram
two days ago, are believed to be
seeking a new opportunity to act
against the Serbian government.
The Croatian nationalist press is
loud in urging that separation with
the Sergian government be immedi-
ately effected. If separation is not
granted it will be impossible for the
leaders of the Peasant Party, who
hav been restraining the masses Of

Medical Aid.
AS to my particular coal mine, The
Red October, we had formerly one
miserable medicine man, who treated
his patients by antideluvial methods.
At present we have medical station
with medicine staff, the head physi-
clan, dentist, gynecologist and other
specialists, well equipped with all
means of transport to the nearest
clinic. All the treatment is given to
the workers free of charge and during
illness the average wages are paid to
them.
If worker is hurt, he receives the
average wages till his death and his
family gets them till the boys are 10
years old.
In case of death, his family is paid
lby the coal mine. A man badly bruis-
ed or hurt to death during his work
receives two-month salary besides
the sum paid by the state-insurance
and the money given out for burial.
There is also medical consultation
for children, where pregnant women
are given advice, help, and the chill
dren are given food The mother re-
celves for every newborn child some
money in order to buy baby clothes.
We are still developing; we still
have little culture; the foreign bour-
.geoisie hates us and makes all kinds
of mischief; it does not recognize us,
and seizes our gold. Its specialists
try to destroy our works. Perhaps
you have read about the counter-revo-
luton in the coal fields. Our own
specialists studying in high schools
have either not yet been graduated,
or have little experience in practical
work. There lie our difficulties, but
we are growing rapidly. In our high
schools preference is given to workers
and peasants with industrial training.
Workers Control.
! Perhaps you will be interested to
know who, is controlling our mining
industry. In the mining administra-
ton, the director is an old worker
miner; the manager an engineer, but
his assistant is an old collier.
Our trust, Makeev's, has five works
and 16 mines, with 10000 workers
employed. The Red October mine,
where | am working, is a part of this
trust and 1903 workers are employed
there.
| am ending here, as I don't know
what you are interested in concerning
our life in USSR. am sure of re-
