RESULTS OF THE SUMNER
ROUNDUP OF DEPARTMENT
Many Children Examined By
Specialists of the State

Beginning in the early spring and
continuing during the summer, special
child health conferences for the ex-
animation of children from five to
seven who were getting ready for adj
mission to school, were held through
out the counties under the joint aus
pieces of the Bureau of Child Hygiene
of the State Department of Health,
the Deputy State Health officers, the
State Department of Education and
the Parent-Teacher Associations. In
announcing the results of these con-
ferences, DR.. Riley, Director of the
State Department of Health, said that
the names of many children were OBJ
tanned through the superintendent
and teachers of schools and that
through the courtesy of the Depart
ment of Education, many of the con-
ferences were held in the school build
ings.
Special attention was given by the
examining physicians to weight, pos
ture, the heart, nose, throat, teeth,
vision and hearing, because of their
important bearing upon the general
health Of the children and their free
dom or susceptibility to disease. Con-
ditions that needed to be corrected
were pointed out and the parents were
urged to take their children to the
family doctor or dentist for the nee
essary care. Every county was visited
in connection with the conferences
and was represented in the total num-
Der of children examined.
Of the 1885 children from five to
seven years old, 3,240 white and SIS
colored, examined at these conferen-
ces, considerably over half, total Of
2,041-1,80S white and 232 colored-
needed dental attention. Unfavorable
throat conditions were observed in
1,287-white LIT and colored, 10
as a result of enlarged or infected
tonsils. Adenoids were present in 556
white, SIS and colored, 41-and
among them were 262 mouth breath
ers-262 white and 20 colored.
One-fourth of the total-871, white,
813, and colored, So, were under
weight. Unfavorable conditions of the
lungs were present in 81, of whom 88
were white and 9 colored; and of the
heart in SO, of whom 80 were white
and colored. Bone changes due to
ricketts, were observed in ITO, of whom
SO were white, and % colored, and
faulty posture in 252-236 white and
16 colored. Vision was defective in Sc
white and two colored, and hearing in
the same number, so white and col
ored. Mental retardation was observed
in Is white and 2 colored. Considerably
more than half the children-2,023
white and 1913 colored-had not been
vaccinated against smallpox, and the
parents were notified that in accord
ance with the Maryland law, the chill
dren could not be admitted to school
until they were vaccinated.

SMITH AND ULM
BELIEVED DEAD
Last Message Flashed 7 4
Plane Tells Of Failing
Motors In Storm

SYDNEY, N. S. w, April 3.-F1
Friends of the missing Southern
Cross aviators today hoped for a
fortunate circumstance to overcome
the otherwise almost certain hope
lessness of their plight.
Only extreme good fortune, most
thought, could eliminate in the
rescue of Captain Charles Kings
ford-Smith, his pilot Charles T.
Ulm, and the two men with them
who Sunday flashed a mysterious
message to the world and dis
appeared somewhere east of Wynd-
ham, western Australia.
In that message, which they
ended with their characteristic
"cheerio," they told of falling mo-
tors on their plane and a heavy
rainstorm which obscured the
ground from their view. They
gave their position as about 100
miles east Of Wyndham"-and then
sank into the vastness Of the Aus
tralian brush, peopled by uncivil-
lied savages, some of them canni-
balistic pygmies.
There was the fear today the
search which was being made for
them might be far off the right
track. It was feared the rain
storms in which the plane had
become lost forced it off its path,
and that when Captain Kingsford-
Smith dispatched his final message
Sunday he may have been much
further than he thought from
Wyndham.

War ON STRAY
DOCSPROPOSED
Chamber of Commerce Com
mite Named to Secure
Immediate Action

War on "the NANCY dogs roam
ing the streets Of Brownsville" was
declared Tuesday night by the di-
rectors of the Chamber Of Com
merce, who appointed a committee
consisting Of Jose Celaya, j. S.
Ford and H. T.. Yates to confer with
the proper authorities relative to
disposing Of the worthless CANNES.
The matter was brought to the
attention Of the board of directors
by Jose Celaya, who stated that he
understood approximately 20 per-
sons had been compelled to 60 to
the Pasteur Institute for treatment
the past year, and that five had
been bitten the past week by dogs
infected with rabies.
The life Of any child is worth
more than all the dogs in Browns
VILE" Celsya said, and I believe
it the duty Of this body to bring
this matter to the attention Of the
proper authorities"
The city has an ordinance re-
curing all dogs to be licensed, but
has no dog pound. The law re-
quires that unlicensed dogs be kept
in the pound a sufficient length OF
time to permit their owners to re-
deem them. 1t waas pointed out,
however, that the city health de-
partment had the necessary powers
to order the slaughter Of dogs that
might be considered a potential
menace to life or health, and the
committee was instructed to ascer-
tain if the powers of the health
department could be invoked to re-
lieve the city Of the existing men
ace.
City police have shot hundreds
Of dogs the past year, but the num-
! Der Of CANNES has not diminished
it was stated, and there still arc
thousands of worthless dogs withir
the city limits.

ing the short cut from Fl Paso to
Mexico City he flew the length Of
the Rio Grande to Brownsville
Texas, so as to traverse the COM

But even then he took precautions
against mishap growing out Of the
disturbed condition Of the country.
When he arrived here he wore a
parachute over his gray business
suit, the first time he has been
seen with one in Mexico City. He
quietly slipped it from his shoulders
without comment, as he stepped
from the plane but there was in his
action mute testimonial Of his rec
ignition Of the national situation.
Several minutes elapsed after the
landing at Valbuena field before
Miss Morrow appeared with her
family.
Hello, said Anne.
How r you?" responded the
colonel.
Embassy officials said they did
not know how long he would remain
in Mexico City. It was understood.
however, the visit might last as
long as a week. and that during
it there might be a formal an
nouncement of his wedding date
and place.
