HAPPY DAYS
HERE AGAIN
Liquor Agents Getting
Long Leaves of Absence
i'm This District
BUT NOT ALL GONE

The passing of the spectacular
"rodeos' or mobilization drills as
made famous by Attorney Robert
Sengle, former administrator OF the
prohibition enforcement depart
ment in Connecticut, has become
an assured feature Of the return
of happy days
Waterbury witnessed on several
occasions the mobilization Of 40
or more federal agents for a gen.
eral cleanup OF the city at one
time, The agents were brought
here from Rhode Island, Massa-
chusetts and all parts of the state.
To mobilize 40 in the future would
mean a reunion of the entire force
of New England.
Four agents associated with the
state staff have been given inde-
finite furloughs or in palmer Eng
lish have been dismissed. 1t leaves
the Connecticut force only eight dry
agents in the future and some OF
them may soon be dropped.
The economy plan has resulted
in the dismissal Of 81 agents from
the New England district. In add.
ton to the agents, 10 clerks will
be dropped.
The four agents who withdraw
from the state picture include
Paul C. Culp of Hartford, Wilbur
B. Fisher Of New Haven, Vincent
Jones Of Stonington and Raymond
Salka of Meriden.
ICY" Bassett, well-known to the
local police and less favorably to

goats. Connecticut's first cast
which occurred in 1924 was traced
to the victims handling of hog
meat in slaughter house. In
most of the investigations Of the
disease since then, 1t has been
found to result from consumption
of raw milk from untested cows.
OF the los cases which have oc-
Cured in Connecticut, 33 were re-
ported last year against twenty the
year before, SO that an increase in
incidence is indicated. None Of
the cases has resulted fatally in
this state. In other sections of the
country where hogs are factor in
causing the infection, about three
per cent Of the cases result in
death.
Even though the hazard of
death from this disease may not
be great in Connecticut, an attack
Of undulant fever is not exactly
the kind of vacation one would
choose" said DR. Knowlton. 1.-THE
duration Of the illness may vary
from less than q month to six
weeks or longer. The way to
prevent undulant fever is to
drink only milk from cows that
have been tested and proven free
from contagious abortion or milk
that has been pasteurized. Pas
teurization kills the germs of I'M
dulant fever and also other dis
ease germs that may exist,in milk"

to be more common unless people

Hippocrates, a Greek physician,
