TODAY'S MARKETS

December from 1910 to 1871. There
appeared to be moderate liquidation
in the old crop months and the
July premium over the new crop
positions was slightly lower.
The wether seemed TO be the
dominating feature and, while
traders were evidently anticipating
further may notices during the
coming week. more attention was
being given to the new crop de-
velopments although 1t was ad-
mitted that the season is still too
early TO form any very definite cor
illusions. Liverpool cables reported
prices there being influenced by
selling for Bombay account as well
as local liquidation. while cloth
sales were said to have been mo-
derate.
Cotton on Shipboard awaiting
clearance at the end of the week
was estimated at $1,000 bales a
gainst $1,000 last year.

hospitalizcd for malaria had been
reduced from 40 percent to less
than 10. In the year the canal was
finished, the death rate in the con-
tinental United States was AL per
1000. In the Canal Zone it was 6.
By giving the Walter Reed theory
of the transmission of yellow fever
practical application Gargas made
the Zone the most healthful place
in the world.
In 1914 Gorgas became surgeon
general of the U. S. Army. Well
known is the story of his policy of
strict examination of our soldier
soldier bOys-a policy whereby it
became necessary to examine more
than 100000 young men in order
to secure a fit army of 4,500,000.
Never before was physically finer
army put upon the field of battle
and never before was body of
troops kept in such excellent physi-
cal condition. General Gorgas' di-
rection of the health activities of
the American Army during the
World War alone entities him to
permanent glory.
In Arlington National Cemetery
sleeps this man Gorgas, the almost
miraculously successful pioneer in
preventive medicine, who till car

expectancy. In this country, the Cor
gas Memorial in addition to its
health education campaign, main
tains an active department of mo-
quito control whose work it is to
cooperate with communities all ov-
er the United States in getting rid
of the disease-bearing, pestiferous
mosquito. In a way, this many sid
ed program is his monument. In
another sense, it is his own work,
still continuing and destined to con-
tinue.
The story of his achievement,
which opened up most of the worlds
trOpic areas to modern development,
has often been told; yet some fea-
lures of it are so astonishing and
spectacular that they deserve the
same attention which posterity ac-
cords to a military hero's great bat
ties.
When GOrgas, building on the
findings of Finlay, Reed, AgramOnte,
Lazaer, Carroll and the brave men
who worked with them, set about
cleaning yellow fever out of Cuba,
there were 14O0 cases of the disease
in Havana alone Every year pre-
vious had taken it's toll in yellow
fever deaths. Even in the United
States the pestilence was a yearly
scourge-in the record year, 1878,
10000 persons had died of it. When
Gorgas left Cuba, yellow fever was
a thing of the past, and a thorough
ly proved preventive for the disease
everywhere had been given to the
world.
Before Gorgas went to Panama,
the isthmus was notorious the world
over as a tropical pest-hole. Since
1905 there has never been a death
there from yellow fever. Within 5
years the percentage of employees

HE SERVED WELL
Birthday Anniversary Of VIII
liam Crawford GOrgas, 1S5l-199O

Perhaps of all living Americans
Doctor GOrgas has conferred the
greatest benefit on the human race. "
Sixteen years ago, this tribute to a
great American was published by
the London Daily Mail-a tribute
seriously and soberly written, well
weighed, affirmed by some of the
greatest men of science then living.
Today, on the seventy-sixth ami
versary of the birth of William
Crawford Gorgas, that somewhat
breath-taking verdict still cannot be
considered eXtravagant. The lives
his pioneering saved, in the twenty
years that have passed since he
concluded his epOchal work in Gu
ba, far outnumber the toll of lives
taken by any of histOry's greatest
warriors. The territory he made for
human habitatiOn comprises a great
er territory than Alexander or
Caesar ever subdued. Most impor-
tant of all, the work he began will
continue for all time to come.
