Review of the Disease in All Parts of the
 State
WARNING TO PARENTS

Up to Il o'clock on August 24th, there have been reported during the month of August, 287 cases in Connecticut. The total for the year to date is 399.
 There were 14 cases reported over the weekend from II cities and towns. This gives an idea of the way in which the disease is progressing. When 1t first ap- peared in this state, the cases were limited to a smaller number of communities, particularly the larg- CT cities such as New Haven. Wa terbury, and Hartford. Now cases from the large cities are decreas- ing, and the cities and towns that hitherto were free of the disease are reporting one or two cases.
 It would appear that as the dis ease in the larger cities is de- creasing that the totals for the state should decline from now on.
 However. the spread of the dis ease in the small communities is now occurring. Physicians and health officers in those places are alert and parents should be on the watch to detect anything that might indicate the early symptoms of infantile paralysis. A physician should be called if such symptoms as a stiff neck, nausea, or vomiting appear.
 Parents should continue to keep children in their normal surround ings and not have visitors from places where the disease Is present or visit places where the disease exists.
 Twelve hospitals in nine Con- necticut cities have taken steps to obtain Drinker respirators. These are given In the following list:
 Hospital City w. w. Backus ........ Norwich Englewood Isolation Bridgeport Bridgeport Hospital Bridgeport Norwalk Hospital ......

Discrimination By
 State Is Attacked
Massachusetts Won't Let Road Contracts to Connec-
 ticat Firms Despite Low Bids

l Boston, Aug. 2s.-Following the action of the executive council in Massa achusetts In discriminating in favor of Massac chusetts contractors on road building projects. the lead ling business men in the six New England states who constitute the New England council, all-New Eng land development organization, were reminded to-day that "the New England council has always stood for the utmost freedom Of flow of commerce. trade, and com munication throughout the New England area"
 In a letter from council head quarters in Boston. Executive Vice President Dudley Harmon called at tention to the stand taken by the Massa Q chusetts division of the coun- cil in opposition to discrimination, and expressed the hope that "other state councils and individual mem bers generally will. promptly and vigorously oppose any tendency to force upon their states or com communities any similar restrictive and economically unsound meas ures."
 Referring to the recent award of contracts to Massac chusetts bidders at an increased cost to the taxpay- CTS of $16,0OO over the bids of Con- necticut contractors, the letter de- clares that inasmuch as "Massa- chusetts law requires that only resi- dents of the state shall be em- ploycd on road work. and as the supervisory force the two Connecti- cut firms proposed to use on the two contracts consisted largely of Massac c husetts residents, the action of the governors council brings practically no real gain to Massa- chusetts in the form of added em- ployment."
 'The Massachusetts division is- sued a public statement in protest against the contract awards, and also appeared through its secretary at a public hearing on the matter" the lcter continues.
 "The New England council has always stood for the utmost free dom of flow of commerce.. trade. and communication throughout the New Englard area. The action in Massachusetts is an expression of a worldwide tendency toward re- striction of business that undoubt- edly has played a large part in bringing about present economic distress. In protesting the applica- tion of this restrictive policy to the award of road contracts in Massachusetts, the Massachusetts division has rendered distinct
