It's a question the answer to
which depends very much on your

Il Is true that there Is very little
privacy In q small town. but there
is also very little lonesomeness.
Yet even in the biggest city In

Rose Rash of

Infancy May

By HERMAN sUSDrsEN. ". T
THERE are some diseases
which have severe symptoms but
which are in no way serious. One
Of these is known as the rose rast
OF infancy, or exanthem subitum,
Unfortunately, this is a difficult
disease 10 diagnose and frequently
the severe symptoms continue I'M
I'll the rash appears.
The cause Of the disorder IL

ease have occurred. however
Most eAses occur during the first
two years Of life and the disorder
often develops Turing teething
time. The mistake Of calling II
a teething rash is then apt 70 be
made.
Early SprinG
The disease is most frequent
during the early spring. II starts
with fever, which continues for
from three to four days and then
gradually the temperature drops
20 normal. The rash then develops
suddenly over the trunk. neck,
face, arms, and legs. The rash is
much like that Of measles and is
pale red in color. The rash persists
for from one 10 two days and then
clears up.
Other symptoms include irri-
liability and occasionally, convul'
sions. The number Of white cells
in the blood Is reduced 70 below
normal. Complications do not oc-
cur very often. Occasionally, ar
ear infection may develop.
Rash Confusing
The rose rash Of infancy may,
for the time being, be confused
with a number Of other disorders
such As measles, German measles,
scarlet fever, and influenza. In
view Of the speed with which the
symptoms clear up once the rash
has developed, when this stage Of
the disorder is reached. there is
not . great deal Of difficulty in
diagnosing il.
No particular treatment is nee
essary for exsnthem subitum,
since 1t gets we'll in practically
all cases without any complica-
tons. Whenever severe symptoms
develop in a baby. of course, the
mother should have an immediate
examination made by the physi-
clan.
He may not in all instances be
able to tell exactly what is eaus-
ing such symptoms as fever, but
once the rash Of exanthem subj
tum develops. the diagnosis is
quickly made by him, and the par
ents can be treasured that the con-
dition is in no way q dangerous

BY the ASsoeioted Press

FRANKFURT, April II. = Pro-
posals for a large-scale switch of
French and American occupied ter
ritory in Western Germany have
been made by both French and
German authorities, it was learned
yesterday after disclosure of French
claims to the city of Karlsruhe.
Under the proposals, a reliable
American source said, French troops
would occupy the entire Rhine River
province of Baden with the excep-
ton of Heidelberg and Mannheim
American forces in turn would oc-
cupy all of Wuerttemberg, whose
chief city is Stuttgart.
At present American troops hold
North Baden and North Wuerttem-
berg, with the French occupying the
provinces southern sections.
An exchange would give the
French fuller control of the Rhine
River and broad corridor linking
the now-isolated halves of the
French occupation zone.
In view of the unfavorable Amer
ican attitude toward French re-
quests for Karlsruhe, it was consid-
cred unlikely that the proposals.
