TB AS GRAVE ALASKA WORRY
 IS DISCUSSED
Dr. Eberhardt Addresses Sdnitarians-MiIk Sani-
 fdtion Is Explained

In a morning address today, Dr. Jacob P. Everhardt. medical direc- tor of the Bureau of Indian Af- fairs, told members of the Short Course in Restaurant Inspection and Sanitation facts regarding the tuberculosis situation in Alaska.
 Designating tuberculosis as "tha biggest health problem among the Indians,' Dr. Eberhardt explained that all primitive people have less immunity to the disease than is found among highly civilized na- tions, and in Alaska, ten times as many natives as whites are in- fected.
 Tuberculosis continues to be ar appalling problem in Alaska, as shown in graphs distributed by the Territorial Department ot Health and the Alaska Tuberculo- sis Association, with Alaskas death rate per 100000 population being eleven times that of the national average, or 521 compared to 47 deaths in the States, he said.
 Combat Disease
 Combating the disease is carried cn in two ways, Dr. Eberhardt con- tinued, first by an attempt to gain more healthful living condi- tions, and second, by segregation of those infected.
 In the latter respect he referred to the remarkable correlation shown in the state of Oregon with the de- crease of the disease as more hos pitalization is provided. From 1910 to 1889, records show that with the establishment of TOO beds for tu- bercular patients per 100000 popu- lation, the number of cases have

 On the Central battlefront, the Russians are reported moving down upon a score of settlements south of Rely and are said to be shaping a wide attack on the stretch on the Vyazma- -Smolensk railway. The drive is in the fashion of pin cer about the key base of Smolensk. There is much fighting west of the Dneiper River headwaters.
 On the Northwestern front, Tim oshenko's men continue the offen sive.

It was announced in a special COM

"Munda is now in our hands" the
special communique said. "All or

ceased: action is now limited to
destruction of isolated enemy
groups.
"One thousand, six hundred and
seventy-one enemy dead have al

Field dispatches said the last OF
the Japanese defenders of Munda
had been pushed from the western
end of the airfield and were being
destroyed by the American jungle
troops who invaded the japanese
central Solomons stronghold 38
days ago.
An unestimated number of rem
nantS of the original garrison of
approximately 5000 men had been
driven from their defenses when
the American left flank advanced
onto the field as the right flank
encircled the airstrip and reached
the sea north of Grasi, just west
of the field.
General MacArthur's regular COM
munique earlier said the enemy was
suffering heavy casualties as the
Americans advanced from three
directions and forced the defenders
onto an out -jutting of land west of
the airfield.
The last escape route for the
Japanese, who abandoned great
quantities of stores in their flight
after holding out against an Ameri-
can drive for 35 days, was severed
by the Yanks on the extreme right
who swung to the western shore
600 yards above Gurasi.

bloody fighting ahead on the roads
