l mention this now because
schools will soon be opening, and
it is not too early for the Parent
Teacher Association committees to
start planning for the year. And
perhaps never before has there
been such great need for good
school luncheons. The economic
conditions of recent years have de-
prived hosts of children of physical
and emotional security. Food has
been less plentiful or it has not
been wisely chosen. School boards
have been forced to withdraw f.
nancial support of the luncheon.
Underlying outward signs of de-
preston there is a sense of realiza-
ton on the part of children that
something is wrong. 1t is an emo
tional thing, a disturber of that
feeling of security which all chill
iren should have. Now a good
cheerful luncheon is only one part
IF the remedy, but very impor-
:ant part. 1t not only means food,
out sociability, happiness, relief
from worry, a restoration of good
feeling. This is one valuable ser
vice open to the Parent Teacher
Association. l assure you it pays.

The Silliest Killings
By Don Herold

There may be some remote excuse
for having an automobile collision with
q horse and wagon. Horses--they
haven't much sense anybody is apt
to hit slow old horse.
Yet, of last year automobile deaths.
Only200 occurred in mixups with horses.
And maybe there's some excuse for
hitting bicycles. You can't always tell
what anybody on bicycle is going to
do. Yet only 42O deaths occurred in
automobile mix-ups with bicycles last
year.
What strikes me as perfectly silly.
however, were those Is, 440 deaths in
automobile collisions with pedestrians
and those 3,140 deaths in automobile
collisions with fixed objects.
A total of exactly no pedestrians
ought to be killed in this country by
automobiles per annum. In every such
death that occurred last year there
should have been a committee of two
working to avoid the accident-the
driver and the pedestrian. (Where
children were hit, the driver should
have been acting as both members of
the committee of two.)

HUSH! INSIDE STUFF

High-up political gossip of the
moment revolves around the persistent
rumor that James A. Farley's three-fold
status as postmaster-general, chairman OF
the Democratic. National Committee, and
chairman of the New York Democratic
State Central Committee is due for an
early and drastic working over at the
hands of the administration.
Latest report has it that Mr.. Farley
will be dropped from the cabinet, to be
succeeded as postmaster-general by Secre-
tary of Commerce Daniel C. Roper, with
John Dickinson, former Pennsylvania pro-
fessor, slated for elevation from assistant
to secretary of commerce, all according to
those who say they have the inside dope
that the sky is falling on Mr. Farley.

Every driver should be imagining
places where goofy pedestrians may
pop out asking TO be hit out from be-
hind parked cars--~or darting across
the street in the middle of the block
or walking on the wrong side Of
country road.
And every pedestrian ought to be
imagining places where goofy or smart
alec drivers may pop along TO kill him.
About IS, 900 of our pedestrian brothers
stepped out from behind parked cars
last year and got hit, 500 killed,
according to The Travellers Insurance
Company. About 10000 we're hit
while walking on rural highways
1850 killed.
But here's what gets me most:
Accidents resulting from banging into
fixed objects (46, $40 accidents Of this
kind last year, with 3,i40 deaths)
strike me as the most ridiculous of all
methods of bashing up motor car.
You know exactly what fixed object
is going to do. You can't put half the
blame on a fixed object. In order to
run into a fixed object, you almost
have to make deliberate plans.

STATE HEALTH OFFICER CAUTIONS

For several weeks Key West has
been busily engaged in persistent efforts
to control the mosquito, carrier of the
dengue fever germ, under the direction of
G. B. Reed, chief sanitary inspector OF the
FERA, and as result very little dengue
fever is being reported in this city, but the
campaign against the Stegomyia should
continue undated to prevent the spread of
this disease
Writing in the August number of
Health Notes, monthly publication of the
State Board of Health. Dr. Henry Hanson,
state health officer, has issued a few words
of caution and instructions to aid in the
anti-Stegomyia campaign. He says:
Persons in the late predromal stages
of six to eighteen hours prior to the onset
of the fever are infective to the Stegomyia
Once these mosquitoes are infected they
continue infective for the balance of their
lives
The doctor states that the necessary
protective measures for controlling, as
we'll as preventing, an epidemic of this
kind are clear cut, and that an effective
campaign directed against the breeding
places of the mosquitoes will promptly
stop the disease.
Continuing, DR.. Hanson writes:
In intensive campaigns for the con-
troll of the Stegomyia, observations in
dictate that the majority of mosquitoes die
or are destroyed by one factor or another
in about three weeks. 1t has also been
found in such campaigns that diseases
which are transmitted by the Stegomyia
terminate within six weeks after the mos
quitoes have been reduced to a very low
breeding index.
''All city health departments should
take immediate steps to destroy the breed
ing places of this mosquito. The present
situation is one which calls for full CO.
operation by state and municipal authori-
ties Municipalities should divert funds,
making them available for use by health
officers in employing personnel who
should, during the next two months at
least, devote their full time to inspection
of breeding places and to the elimination
of Stegomyia breeding. Some experience
and training is required for this purpose.
The State Health Department and the
various municipal health departments will
furnish supervision and instruction neces-
sary for prompt control and eradication of
the epidemic Unless active control meas
ures are adopted and supported by the
public, the epidemic will spread to all com.
munities where Stegomyia mosquitoes pre-
vail.
1.-The Stegomyia breeds in artificial
containers, such as tanks, cisterns, wells,
tin cans, broken bottles, old abandoned
tire castings, flower vases, cutters, ETC.,
where water remains for period of 10
days or two weeks. They do not lin
this country breed in swamps, ponds or
bitches"
