WIDE RANGE OF
PROMOTION
PREVENTION
DIR. Riley Submits Reports AS
To Conditions Throughout
The State of Md.

The wide range of the health pro-
motion and disease prevention activi-
ties carried on throughout Maryland
by the County Departments of Health
is indicated in report prepared by
DIR. R. H. Riley, Director of the State
Department of Health, of the work
of the counties in 1887.
The activities of each county are
summarized with reference to COM
municable disease control or proven
ton; the health supervision of moth
ers and young children; dental care
of young children; the health super
vision of school children; special SER
vices for crippled children; the sani-
tary supervision of foodhandling in
dustries, tourist, and other camps :;
educational activities and with respect
to other duties.
The report shows that 20,924 cases
of notifiable diseases were reported
to the State Department of Health
from the counties, and that 1876
home visits were made by the county
health officers and public health nur-
ses to discover sources of infection
and to establish the necessary protec-
tive measures to prevent the spread
of the diseases. Nearly 10000 young
children were immunized against diph
liberia, 1924 persons were protected
against typhoid fever and over $500
were vaccinated against smallpox. All
protective measures of this sort were
arranged in cooperation with the ply
sicians practicing in the counties.
All parts of the State were reach
ed by the monthly chest clinics held
in cooperation with the Maryland
tuberculosis Association. Over $500
persons were examined at the clinics
for evidence of the disease; 2,130 were
added to those already under medical
supervision, and 632 were placed in
hospitals or sanatoriums. In connec-
ton with these activities nearly $4,000
home visits were made to persons who
were suffering from the disease or
who had been in contact with it.
Venereal disease clinics were held
in every section of the State, with
nearly $500 new patients added to
those under treatment. Over $1,000
treatments were given and over 5000
follow-up visits were paid to the
homes of the patients.

DENTON PASTOR LEADS
FAMILY FROM FLAMES

A pastor led his wife and six chill
dren to safety early Thursday morn
ing when a raging fire destroyed a
vacant house next door. The Rev. T.
J. Huntington, pastor of the M. P.
Church, Denton, awakened at 4:3O
o'clock by the barking of his dog, dis
covered the whole interior of the
neighboring house was ablaze.
Flames wrecked the house, owned
bv Mr.. and Mrs. VIM. H. Rathell, and
spread to burn a hole in the roof of
the parsonage. Mr.. Huntington with
the aid of neighbors, took his wife and
six children across the street to the
home of John Ricards.
Firemen fought unsuccessfully to
keep the fire confined to the two-story
frame house. The parsonage, besides
the hole in the roof, was also damag-
ed by water. The minister and his
family were able to move back later
in the day after the roof was temper
arily patched. The firsmen were sum
moned to the fire by Mr.. Huntington
as he rescued his own family.
Mr.. and Mrs. Rathell moved recent
ly from their home and are now iv-
ing in an apartment above the pool

are abnormally high and that great
new sections of land are being put
into production through reclamation
activities.

Louis KOS SchmeIino

Joe LOUIS of Detroit, the Brown
- Bomber" stands the undisputed
heavyweight champion of the world.
His amazing victory over Max
Schmeling of Germany in the YAM
kee stadium at New York gave him
that status. In less than one round
the challenger was hammered to the
floor three times by the crashing
blows of Louis, and his seconds
threw the towel into the ring, for
the German was quite helpless.
The referee declared Louis the win
ner by technical knockout.
The loser said his deafeat was
caused by a blow over the kidney.
X-ray examination of the German
after the battle showed projection
from a vertebra was broken. The
blow was not foul for it was not
struck in a clinch.
Eighty thousand persons wit
messed this epochal battle, the short
est heavyweight championship bout
in history. Louis got 40 per cent of
the gate and 20 per cent went to
Schmeling.

these, PWA officials said, would
complete the first push" toward a
2,000, 200, 900 construction program
to provide work and stimulate in
dustry. Officials further estimated
that these initial groups of projects
may run as high as $500 or 1000
with a cost of $500, 900, 900.
Federal grants under the PWA
procedure cover As per cent of the
cost and, when a PWA loan is
made, SIS per cent. The difference
between the estimated overall cost
of the projects and the sum of loans
and grants made by PWA is sup
piled by the various applicants.
The POI projects in the first group
to cost $92, 520,374 will be financed
by the PWA to the extent of Sal $685.
IT'S in grants and So, 021 900 in loans
while the second list of 299 projects
to cost $50, 275, 521 will receive fed
eral grants of $5,26O,413 and loans
of 81 900, 500. Thus the amount of
government assistance to $50 prof.
ects estimated to cost $148, 1855 1895
will amount to $75,814,623.
The President, when he signed
the act, told the press that business
conditions were not as bad as pop
ularly believed, and said he looked
for a definite pickup in the near
future.
