The most concentrated drive in the
history of epidemic was getting under
way today in an effort TO cut short the
rapidly increasing cas- OF encephalltlS
lethargica, or sleeping sickness, which
has gripped ST. Louis.
The majority of the research staff Of
the National Institute Of H Hsalth. the
scientific branch of the United States
Public Health Service. has been sent
to the Missouri city and the others are
holding themselves ready TO go at a mo-
ment's call. There DR.. J. P. Leake, in
active command of the drive. has set

Challenged BY the mysterious ultra

Contacts Investigated.
The campaign is being waged along
two fronts. The first phase consists
of an intensive study Ct the epidem-
clogy of the disease. So far as pos
sible every case reported is visited. and
an effort made to obtain minutely
detailed account of all the patients S
contacts in the immediate past. 1t is
good deal like hunting for needle in
a haystack. but the trained investigat-
ors hope eventually to pick up some
clue as to how the virus passes from
person to person.
1t was at first believed that it was
very mildly contagious. 1t may be
spread by carriers or by insects. The
doctors are looking for a common con-
tact made by considerable number
of the patients.
The other phase of the battle is an
effort to inoculate monkeys with the

Miss Smith is one of a score of labo-

almost increasingly since the current
outbreak first occurred here.
DR.. Howard A. McCordock, patholo-
glst at central laboratory set up to
study the outbreak, defined a virus as

only by its ability to produce disease "
virus, he explained further, contains
no germ visible under the microscope.
-Four deaths from sleeping sickness
occurred in st. Louis today. Three per-
sons died yesterday. A total of 461
patients have been reported in Greater
st. Louis.
Study of the disease, directed by
Senior Surgeon j. P. Leake of the
United States Public Health Service,
shows many patients have completely
recovered without showing i'll affects.
The death rate is lower than in sew
eral common diseases.
The alarming feature of the situation
however. has been the absence of
knowledge as to how the disease was
transmitted and how it could best be
combated.

The Roosevelt administration comes
to its six-month mark Monday with
farm plans pending or in force that
contemplate the distribution of from
$4,000 900 to S500,000.000 in cash
benefits to farmers by the end of its

AS result propects have increased
that this years aggregate farm income
may be swelled by $4,000, 100000 over
last years low for recent years Of
$4,000, ,OO0, 900, and that the trend has
swung definitely from falling income to
rising returns to agriculture
The theory of production curtailment

rect ENHANCEMENT in this complex and
highly dangerous situation, undoubtedly
will be done to avert new world ca
tastrophe Because there are still vague,
very vague hopes of achieving some
thing at Geneva, the President has
temporarily suspended the expenditure
of $50, 100000 for modernization of the
Army and the air force. If the same
thing has not been done for the Navy,
the reason is that it Is much more dlfh-
cult to improvise navy than an army,
and the Navy in this country is the
first line of national defense.
Americas interest in Europe has les
sened in the last few months. The in
innate cooperation with that con-
tinent, which was so obvious since the
World War, was due to several rea-
sens. the principal one being the vast
,, amount of money which the people of
this country had invested in Europe.
This money appears at present TO
F.. be lost; there Is no hope OF recovering
| the war debts and there is only very
remote chance of Europe repaylng the
| private debts. Under these clrcum-
! stances. it is considered in high circles
as sheer folly to continue policy of
active cooperation with Europe when
it is evident that this country would
gel only the worst of it. The posi-
b:lity of America entering some kind
of an agreement to guarantee the Sc
curity of Europeon nations on the basis
of the Kellogg pact, an idea put for
ward forcefully by the former Secre-
! tary of State, Henry L. Stimson, and
! taken up afterward in much modified
form by President Roosevelt, is thing
of the past which nobody here con-
siders likely any longer, in the light
of what is happening today in Europe
and Asia.
| If America can be Of anv assistance
to the rest of the world, by her moral
action, the President undoubtedly will
leave no stone unturned to help, it
was stated in high quarters yesterday
But this is the maximum that can be
expected from the American Govern
ment as long as the present warlike
frame of mind and restlessness prevails

ROOSEVELT PROVES
FISHING CHAMPION
Leads Yachting Party for

Sunburned but victorious in bit
terly contested fishing contest. Presi-
dent Roosevelt was sailing southwark
last night aboard the yacht Nourmahal
for another day of sport off the Della
! ware Capes.
A message from the Presidents sec
retary, Stephen T. Early, to the Navy
Department last night. said the presi-
Dental party had boarded the yacht

| boat Orca, with Capt. Herman Gray, off
Montauk, while the remainder went in
another boat. They boarded the Nour-
nahal again in Fort Pond Bay and
I turned the nose of the yacht southwark
| Immediately.
Early reported the President had won
, the DAYS fishing honors with catch
of two sea bass and as many porgies."
but that he as well as others in the
party were most successful in getting
sunburned
Early's message said:
1T was we'll after dark before the
President transferred to the Nourmahal
from the Orca. The yacht had pre-
/, ceded the fishing group into Fort Pond
! Bay and as the President boarded
orders were given to get under way and
| head southwark.
Soon afterWard the Nourmahal put
out to sea, escorted by the destroyers
| Manley and Twiggs. Their destination
was the westerly edge of the Gulf
| Stream. about 180 miles off the Della
ware Capes. 1t was the President S
intention to resume fishing when the
Gulf Stream was reached. and despite
| the fact that he won honorS in today's
! contest he anticipated bigger and bet
ter catches there.
AstOr Threesome Loses.
Vincent Astor and George St George
and Kermit Roosevelt were badly de-
feated in today's contest with the
President, Judge Kernochan. w. r.
Stewart, DR.. Leslie Heiter and Lytle
Hull.
The President caught two sea bass
and as many porgies: Stewart got the
lone tuna for the Presidents boat;
HullS single score was one clam which
refused to let go of the hook; Kerno-
chan spent the day in utter futility,
While Dr.. Heiter delivered nothing more
than mussel. Vincent Astor negatived
Stewart's catch with a tuna; st.
| Georges score was zero. while Kermit
Roosevelt hooked two fish of unknown
variety and lost both of them.
In one respect only was the score
! the same. all fishermen succeeded in
| catching good sunburn.
Last, but not least in the sport re-
suit of the day was Happy Gus Cen
nerich of the Secret Service. He caught
| a starfish Single-handed"
An earlier message from Early. at 3
pm. had indicated the fishermen were
not having such good luck.
