Typhoid fever Is one OF the
best examples. incubation of
each individual against typhoid
fever began about 1912. In 1910
in 7S American cities there
were 10000 cases Of typhoid
fever and 400 deaths. In 1910
IN the same cities with
greatly increased population
there were about 700 cases Of
typhoid fever and about l20
deaths This has been brought
about largely BY public santa
ton but individual incubation
is still necessary on account Of
the menace OF carriers
II is fair 10 say that the war
against Japan could probably
not have been prosecuted were
il not for anti-typhoid vaccina-
ton. During the Spanish war
with an army OF 10000 men
the United States had 2loO0
cases OF typhoid fever In the

most Of these could be traced

sensitive and persists after

These agen- cies will give attention to those phases of the work falling within their respective spheres Of respon- sibIlity.
 The estimate includes $245.OOO for transfer to the Department of Agriculture for participation in the program Alaska agriculture can, no doubt. be expanded to meet the needs of persons who may wish to settle there, but additional infOr- nation is required in several fields. Investigations should be undertaken on such basic subjects as soil classification and manage ment, crop possibilities in relation to soil and climate factors, special farm equipment and housing, in- cluding storage, insect control, ami maj husbandry, dairy and livestock operations, and economic analysis of farming opportunities and of mar keting and transportation facilities. Such information as is available from other countries which have conducted research in arctic agri- culture will be used to the fullest extent possible
 Because of climatic conditions and the short working seasons in a large portion of the Territory, it is desirable that funds be provided to permit a continuance of t h e program without interruption. The estimate therefore covers a period through June 30, 1946. Contem- plated expenditures in 1945 aggre- gate $1,739,O00 and for 1946, $2,- 121,O0O.
 The afOregoing supplemental es- timate of appropriation is request ed to meet contingencies which have arisen since the transmission of the budget for the fiscal year 1945, and It's approval is recOm- mended.

Prisoner of War

On my desk this morning ia a photostatic copy of a letter from an American Army Air Force Lieutenant who is a prisoner of war in Germany. While he says that he was shot down over "occu- pied territory" with characteristic modesty, he makes no mention of having received a citation for gal lAntry in action in the very flight that interrupted his fighting career. From other sources we learned about this, and also that h0 was a Bombardier in a Flying Fortress. His letter was written to one of nay dear friends, a fine, seasoned ad- vertising man, president of bis agency, who wrote practical book on advertising some years ago.
 Our young lieutenant apparently is not wasting bis time ffetting about 6is present incarceration. He N2nts to make advertising his hfe's work when Peace again comes to the World, and was fortunate indeed in getting hold of a copy of my friends book. How it got into the library of a German prison camp will, perhaps, remain a mys- tery until after the war is over. Our hero writes that he hopes to get other books on advertising from Geneva, and asks for further sug- gestions that would aid him in preparing himself for a successful career when he gets home.
 And. who could be deaf to such an appeal as bis? Certainly not my friend. So what's he doing about it? We'll, he's writing to 6 number of other advertising men, enclosing to each a copy of our flying lieu tenants letter, and suggesting that they write him once a month Riv- ing him counsel and encourage ment.
 No, my friend doesn't want any fanfare of trumpets or medals pinned on him, for what he's doing to help 8 young lad who was pre- pared to give his all for us stay-at- homes. It's just a healthy sign of American businessmen interest in following through in that impor- tant job we have to do-to help millions of our finest citizens, the cream of the crop, get back into normal peacetime pursuits.
 We don't know of single Amer ican business enterprise, big or little, that is not willing to take on this responsibility. All of them are including it in their postwar plan ming.
