SYPHILIS PROGRAM
HERE NOT CERTAIN
Local Funds Must Match
State Money; Report On
Work Is Given

Whether or not Vance county Will
share in State funds for syphilis con-
troll work depends on the availability
of county funds to match those funds,
DR.. A. D. Gregg, county health OFF,
Ger, said today. The health offlcer
reviewed the work of his department.
in the past few weeks in a statement
in which he outlined the program
that would be necessary If the FUNDS
were to be obtained.
To get Federal funds, Vance county
must put up the "few hundred dol
lars" required locally, the doctor said.
He said only a small part of the de-
partment's time could be given to
the work under the present set-up,
but that about a fourth of their eff
forts now are going into that channel.
During the first six months of 1888
Wasserman tests for syphilis have
been made on 802 persons, with l4o
positive reactors, giving total of l.
800 treatments Eat a very nominal
fee of So per treatment" He said the
department has $5,46O to its credit,
and this work done almost equals the
total contribution of the city and coun
ty to the health department. The Fed
eral health service gave most of the
drugs, amounting to about $285 for
the six months. A small fee of not
over so cents a week was collected
from some patients who had jobs.
During the first half of the year,
approximately 5000 doses of typhoid
vaccine have been given, completing
