pneumonia UNREPORTED
Nearly 1000 Cases Not Recorded,
Doctor Says.

Doctor Says.
Nearly 1000 cases of pneumonia
failed to be reported to the District
Health Department last year, accord
ing to Dr. Harry J. Dowling. member
of the District of Columbia Medical
Society.
DR.. Bowling estimated 1900 pneu-
monia cases here during the year, in
the course of a lecture Wednesday
night before the medical society. The
reason for the smaller number of
cases reported by the Health Depart
ment, he said, is because many physi-
clans do not report all their milder
cases of pneumonia, as required by
law.
He did not think, however, that the
mortality rate from pneumonia was
greater in Washington than the
Health Department reported.
