OUTDOORS PEOPLE SHOULD
GET SHOT FOR TYPHOID
Immunity Needed If Much Time
Is Spent on Camping Trips, Etc.

If you are boy scout, girl scout,
a campfire girl or any other kind of an
outdoors person, this message from
DIR. R. H. Riley, Director of the State
Department of Health, is addressed
to you.
Before you start on your spring
hikes, your weekend outings, your
summer camping trip, or your vacation
holiday" Dr. Riley said, ego to your
doctor and be protected against ty-
phoid fever-unless you have had 1t
done within the last two or three
years. Three shots of the typhoid vac
.cine-a week apart-will put you IN
the protected class. AS it takes sew
eral weeks for the protective treat
ment to establish itself in the body,
my advice to you is to have it done
now.
"Typhoid fever" DR.. Riley con-
tined, sis filth borne disease. Each
case comes either directly or indirectly
from a previous case. The disease is
contracted in eating foods or in drink
ing or using water contaminated by
typhoid germs. The germs that cause
the disease are passed on in the dis
charges from the bladder and bowels of
persons who are i'll with the disease, or
who have had it at some time. Persons
who are apparently we'll but who have
had the disease at some time and who
continue to excrete the germs are
known as Carriers Carriers who are
careless in their personal habits and
who forget to wash their hands before
handling or preparing food for others
are likely to contaminate any food they
handle.
eff the discharges from persons VINO
are i'll with the disease or who are car
riers of typhoid fever are not carefully
disinfected before they are disposed of,
the germs may spread into the soil and
pollute it or may be carried into wells
or streams and contaminate nearby
water supplies. The possibility of con-
tanlination of this sort makes it unsafe
to swim or battle in unprotected
streams.
"The vigilance of health depart
ments in tracing sources of infection,
the protection of public water supplies
from contamination, improved santa
tion, skilled medical and nursing care
and widespread vaccination against the
disease, have helped to bring about a
great reduction in sickness and deaths
from typhoid fever. Our record for 1884

ONE FATAL CASE
OF PARALYSIS
in WATERBURY
Boy Died Today After Two

Waterbury recorded its first
death from infantile paralysis in

morning and Health Officer DR..

afternoon, also, another case of in
fantile paralysis was recorded in
the city, bringing the total flied
here since July 10th to eight.
DR.. Godfrey and state Health
Commissioner Stanley Osborn of
Hartford were keeping a close
watch on the spread of the disease
in the state today. Thirteen cases
of infantile paralysis were reported
in the state during the last three
weeks in July. Wateroury's total,
therefore, is large.
Three were reported in Water
bury during the latter part of July,
two In New Haven and one each in
Derby, Old Saybrook, Bridgeport,
Danbury, Barkhamsted, Branford,
Hartford and West Haven. Parts
of North Carolina and Virginia and
an area in California are the only
places In the United States as a
whole where the disease has
reached epidemic proportions.
There are now really four active
cases In the city. The death today
and treatment of the earlier cases
have reduced the total number of

by a study of the minutes of the
session I ohave been inconsistent

Seven times, the minutes show,
the two republican commissioners

more times either one of the other

BONUS PROBABLY
TOB DEFERRED

Washington, Aug. 6-(UP)-Sen-
ate Majority Leader Joseph T..
Robinson announced today that the
democratic steering committee had
decided to make bonus legislation
q special order OF business when
congress reconyenes next January.
Robinson said the committee felt
such a policy would facilitate early
adjournment by discouraging eff
forts to attach bonus or other rid
ers. to the pending tax bill. If the
riders are offered. Robinson said,
he, had been given authority to
move to table them.
The decision of the democratic
leadership appeared to doom fur
ther efforts for bonus enactment
this session. Other infiationary
measures, which with the bonus
aggregate some $4,000. 900. 600, also
were believed by leaders to be
shelved.
Sen. Elmer Thomas, D., Okla,
however, said bonus forces were
not dismayed and would still offer
a bonus rider to the tax bill. The
bonus bloc will meet tonight to dis
cuss the situation.
Sen. Thomas p. Gore, D.. Okla.
said that between now and Janu-
airy, bonus advocates hope to work
out compromise that will be ac-
ceptable to the veterans, to con-
gress and to the president"
