Your Health
by DR.. MORRIS FIsHBEIN-

A outbreak of typhoid fever in the Minneapolis
n area indicates again that only constant vigilance
will safeguard any large community from outbreaks
Of this disease. About 100 cases were reported to
the health departments in Minneapolis and ST. Paul
between May and July Is.
Repeated studies made of the available
ter supplies and few specimen were found slight
ly contaminated around July o.
Recently, $4,000 appropriated by the state
executive council to conduct a complete survey Of
the city water system In the meantime, "a con-
taminated wells found in various parts of Min
neapolis and were closed by the health department.
The city waterworks supervisor insists that blame
for the large number Of of typhoid fever must
be placed these wells and not the city water
supply The story sounds like very old one in
relationship to prevention and control of typhoid
fever
IF the case rates and death rates for typhoid that
l. existed in 1890 prevailed today the city of Min
neapolis would have this year approximately 5000
cases of typhoid fever instead of III. With 5000
of typhoid fever there would have been around
900 deaths.
In normal times of course. the city of Minne-
apois will have less than 20 cases Of typhoid fever
in any single season.
For instance in the years from 19O6-I9l0 Mime
apos had 321 deaths for every 100000 persons
In 1911-1915, this dropped to 1885, from 1916-92O it
dropped to So from 1921-1e25, it was 19: then
from 1926-193O it 08-that is. there less
than one typhoid death for every 100000 persons in
the city of Minneapolis.
TN 1881 there O6, and in 1882, o8, but in 1888
the rate reached o. which means that there
only death in Minneapolis from typhoid fever
during that year. With the death there were
probably not more than 10 cases.
In 1881 the rate was IL which OF course was
still within the average for modern years.
st. Paul had rate Of 1913 in 19O6-1910, 80 for
1e11-1915 81 for 1916-1920 "a for 1925 IA for
1926 1885, II for 1881 OF for 1892 IA for 1888 and
not single death from typhoid fever in 1884.
1t is not surprising, therefore. that sudden out
break such has occurred this summer should
arcusazscme conservation.

There Is No Distinction

DETWEEN the individual residents you would
- hardly call them citizens of the several states
no distinction exists. South Dakota man is at
home in South Carolina, and man from the state
of Washington speaks the same language and thinks
about alike with his neghbors should he find himself
in Maine Florida.
The fact is that the states as political subdivi-
sions have forfeited their excuse to exist. True,
New York State is a better state than Utah or Ar
kansas, but New York couldn't possibly go it alone
If secession were possible Therefore, instead of
48 states, each preying the rest in Washington
and each one trying to outmooch the other in
ruinouS competition, nation divided perhaps into
half dozen districts with local administrative of
fees responsible to the big store, would much
more desirable. They might have district Legsla-
lures. That could be worked out.
But my point is that I think get Mr. Roosevelt's
oea and wish he would put it into words instead of
backing into the proposition as he has been doing
With his attempts to establish the Federal govern
ment as great national sucker, Dutch uncle nurse
and fall for the 48 divisions which are unable to
40 business as states any If that is Mr. Roose-
vets idea it would cause commotion than
he has caused already, from time to time to lay
1t on the line frankly in of his radio orations
and let the citizens think it over.

factor which the passenger is like
ly not to detect. 1t is the design
of the windows. The window
stills are unusually high and the
windows are unusually broad.
IN looking out of the window,
Il the passenger can not look
down close to the track. He is
spared the sight, therefore, of the
ground whizizng by,
The fact that the windows are
broad means that his eye catches
such objects as telegraph poles
considerably earlier than it would
in a regulation railway coach.
Consequently. even when the
Zephyr is going 100 miles an hour,
telegraph poles still look like tele-
graph poles, not like a blurred
picket fence.
Let us examine the Zephyr in
detail, since it is fairly typical of
the Diesel-powered trains built
for carrying passengers over long
distances. We will begin with the
engineers cab, which is at the
front end of the first of the three
cars.
The engineer of a steam loco
motive finds himself behind the .
power plant of his locomotive. In
front of him is the boiler with its
roaring fire underneath. Behind
him is the coal tender.
On the Zephyr, the engineer
finds himself in more congenial
surroundings. His cab occupies
the Streamlined nose of the first
car.
II GHT windows, set in a semi
IL circle in the sloping nose of
the car. give him an unobstructed
view ahead and to either side.
His controls are simple-a throttle
and an air brake.
Behind the engineers cab is the
power plant. 1t is important to
understand just how the power is
utilized. In the Zephyr and all
other locomotives which have
been built to date, the power of
the Diesel engine is not applied
directly to the driving wheels in
the way that the steam engine
