Health Director
Warns Against
Tick Bite Fever
Thirteen Cases Reported In
State Results In 3 Deaths
In Past Few Weeks

Because Rocky Mountain spotted
tever-also called tick bite fever--first
reported in the State in 1929, has de-
appeared recently in Maryland, DR.. R.
H. Riley, Director of the State De-
partment of Health, warns all who
have any occasion to come in contact
with ticks, to take certain necessary
precautions to protect themselves
against the disease.
Thirteen cases of Rock Mountain
spotted fever have been reported to
the Bureau of Communicable Disease
of the State Department of Health
since the middle of April. Two have
occurred in Baltimore City, three in
Anne Arundel County, four in Balti-
more County, and one each in Mont
gomery, Prince Georges, Talbot, and
Worcester Counties. There have beer
three deaths. Two were children un-
der six years of age, and the third
was an adult-a young woman twenty
four years old. All of the cases were
associated in some way with ticks
One of the children had not been bit
ten, but had crushed ticks in his
hands.
Click bite fever" DR.. Riley said
"can be contracted either through
the bite of an infected tick or BY
absorbing the infectious materia.
through a break in the skin. The in.
fictitious material from crushed ticks
will stick to the hands and may also
be accidentally rubbed into the eyes
or may find its way to the mouth OF
nose. Fortunately not all ticks are in.
fected, but it is better to regard them
all as sources of danger and to act
accordingly. Here are some of the
things that should be done:
1. Avoid ticks and tick-infected
areas.
z. Remove any TICKS you lind on
your person as quickly as possible but
take care not to break or crush them
After removing ticks, wash the hands
thoroughly with soap and water. Take
the same precautions in removing
ticks from animals.
3. Cut out underground and weeds
Cut grass very short along paths
near bathing pools and shores.
A. If your work or pleasure takes
you through tick-infested areas. pe
over your body and your clothing
carefully, for ticks, when you return
home.
Various kinds of ticks are carriers
of the disease known as Rocky Noun.
tain spotted fever from the section il
which it was hrst observed. In this
part of the country the disease is
spread mainly by the ordinary dog
tick, which attaches itself to dogs
horses, cattle and man. Some of the
CWA activities of the past winter
were directed toward clearing out
tick-infested areas. Brush was burn.
ed, underground was cleared out, anc
rats and mice were exterm;nated in
the localities in which the disease was
known to have occurred last year.

bourgeois abolitionists, like Horace
Greedy OF Wendell Phillips, Let the
E1ring States Depart in Peace!"
When the war actually broke out
he and his government of comp1o-
misers studied the constitution to
find legal means Of raising funds and
carrying on the war, while the South
was inf1icting one defeat after an
other on inadequate and ill-equipped
Northern troops.
Lincoln issued the Emancipation
Proclamation only as military
measure, when Northern troops were
llard-pressed and when the wisdom
Of Frederick Douglass cry-"release
the powerful black hand against the
foe!"-finaliy, by its mere weight,
forced him to act. He resisted the
important demands of the Negroes
that they be enrolled into the North
ern army to fight against the slave
masters. until the former slaves
overran the army camps persisting in
their demands for arms and actually
took up service.
The Defeat of the SlaveoHners
After the slaveowners had been de-
feated on the battlefield the chief
task was to prevent a restoration. to
wipe out the last survival of slavery.
And yet, Lincoln's plan Of Recon
strUction would have Immediately re-
turned the seeded states, dominated
by the former slaveowners, to the

against the slave oligarchy, proclaim
ing the conhscation of the landed
estates in the South and their dis
tribution among the former slaves,
opening the doors of bourgeois DEM
ocracy to them and guaranteeing the
Negroes full equal rights as citizens.
This was, in essence. the program
written in the blood Of the numerous
slave revolts, for which thousands o.
Nat Turner'S and Denmark Veseys
had given their life and additional
thousands upon thousands abolition

this course of uncompromising rev.

Karl Marx, who mobilized the work

the threat of the English ruling class

To Save the Union
Lincoln did not take the offensive;
he would, he said, save the Union,
with slavery II. necessary, without
alavery if compelled. Between the
time he took the presidency and
