PARALYSIS Gain
ALARMS j. s.
: EXPERTS
1900 Cases Reported; 513
New Victims in Week; Bad
After-Effect Is Prevalent

An alarming increase In the
prevalence Of infantile paralysis
throughout the country caused
the public health service to issue
a warning to the public and to
physicians today to be particular.
" watchful
Judging from reports over the
last few months it was estimated
that more than 1000 cases exist
During the week ending Sep.
ternber 90, 513 new cases were re.
ported while during the week OF
September 13 there were 490 new
cases Officials said that over
q period Of several months an
average of 400 new cases had
been reported weekly.
Greatest Since 1927
Infantile paralysis Is more
prevalent than at any time since
the epidemic Of 1927. The last
far-reaching epidemic occurred in
1915, when q large number Of
national guard troops were on
the Mexican border. In 1927 Il
naximun1 Of 5000 cases we're re
ported.
Reports to the Public Health
Service indicated that the ep!
demic originated on the western
coast and has gradually spread
eastward. A similar course was
taken by the influenza epidemic
of the winter Of 1928-1929, al.
though that wave of disease de.
veloped somewhat later in the
year reaching a climax during the
late winter.
Victims Crippled
Public health physicians said
that the normal number Of cases
per 100000 population is 10 per
year. The present epidemic is
not in a particularly fatal form,
although the disease frequently
leaves the victim crippled, some
times permanently disabled.
Although m dical scientists
have been studying the disease
with greater care since the 1927
epidemic, officials said that lit
tie progress has been made in
its treatment. Serum methods
have been tried but are not uni
versally favored by the medical
profession.
The Public Health Service sug
gested that parents be extremely
vigilant in keeping children away
from victims Of the disease and
from strangers. The first symp
tom is the ordinary '"bad cold
And 1t was suggested that physi
clans should be visited at the
earliest indication Of the disease

COOLIDGE ASKED ACTS, NOT THANKS
Senator Pepper Gives Sidelight on Former Presidents Views

Philadelphia, Dec. UP)-An Illuminating sidelight on the political philosophy of Calvin Coolidge is contained in a story told by former 1 Senator George Wharton Pepper in his book Tn the Senate" published by the University of Pennsylvania Press.
 "One Sunday Mrs. Pepper and l had been to church with the presi- dent and Mrs. Coolidge" Pepper writes. Afterwards, at the lunch table, he asked what We thought of the sermon. It's theme was grati- tudc, and the text was: Were There the Nine? They Arc Not Found That Returned to Give Glory to God, Save This Stranger T commended the sermon." Pep per continues, but the president said:
 I'm not so sure that the man who came back and prostrated him. self was bit more grateful than the nine who went about their bus mess. When I appoint man to office l don't want him to thank me. l want him to go and make good
 Never Effusive
 There was much self-revelation In this remark" Pepper comments, but no basis for inferring insensi- bility. If MT. Coolidge never thank ed those who had served him faith fully, he was merely doing as he would have others do to him.
 This incident, Pepper says, ex- plains why Mir. Coolidge failed to make the usual public acknowledg- ment of work rendered by those un- der him in his administration. It wasn't lack of appreciation of loyal service that influenced the former president, Pepper says. It was be- cause he would have wanted a man whom he had server to use similar restraint.
 Some who have sought 10 analyze Mir. Coolidge's character found him devoid of feeling, Pepper writes, white others termed him indifferent to public corruption.
 The first count the senator be- lieves. can never be proved or dis proved.
 Hides Feelings
 "In the philosophy of men of the type 10 which Mr. Coolidge con- forms, feeling is a thing to be hid den" says Pepper. Manifested feel ness.
