Germs That Are
Hormful To Mon

The fear and disgust that peo-
pie have for the rat is founded
upon centuries of experience with
the harmful effects of the ami
NAL upon the h.alth and welfare
of mankind. DR.. Emil Kotcher,
epidemiologist with the State
Board of Health, pointed out as
he discussed the prevalence and
spread of typhus fever in Missis-
sippi.
''Typhus is spread from one rat
to another by the rat flea, mite,
or louse," he said. when these
parasites suck the blood of a rat
sick of tvphus fever, and man
is the next victim of their bites,
that person is very likely to be-
come sick with typhus in about
2 weeks. Where there are many
rats there are bound to be a great
many fleas, MANY of which are
capable of spreading typhus.'
Referring to one of his studies,
the epidemiologist reported, ''TyI
plus has been known for a long
time in New Orleans, a large port
receiving ships from all over the
world. 1t is possible to trace the
spread of tvphus with shipments
of foods invaded by typhus-lad.
en- rats. Improved systems of
highways, railroads, trucks and
buses have been instrumental in
carrying typhus northward into
Mississippi into areas that were
formerly free from the disease.
There is relatively little we can
do to prevent this spread, but
we can prevent the disease by
killing and poisoning rats. Fer
this we can use red squill and
1880 poisons. In addition, this
program can also include DOT
busting to kill fleas and other
vermin left behind when the rat

Most everyone has a favorite
kind which has survived the
years since childhood but if you
haven't any special pet we wager
you can adopt one from the re-
cipes sent in to the food contest
this week. And the JOY is that
most of these are quick and easy
to make. Some of them can be
kept in the refrigerator and made
UP when needed. And all of them
can be counted on to elicit Obs
and Abs of appreciation, from
their consumers, whether they
be the sun suit crowd or the
sun back set.
Because of the loud laments
which arise from all sides owe
the high prices of meat we are
choosing inexpensive m
dishes for the contest subject
next week. For instance. smart
housewives invariably have a
choice stew recipe or some lit
tie trick they do with ground
meet that makes il a real treat.
Or maybe it is a recipe for pot
roast. II could be a dish which
has round steak as a base but
which stretches the meat SO far
that the cost is cut in half.
Anyone with such answers TO
the daily meat problem is ut.-
ed to share her secret with her
fellow housewives-we hope

DIR. Macdonald said that Sir
Henry, with whom he spoke in
Palestine, relied entirely on his
experience, on the Gold Coast, and
had no understanding whatever of

ignorant of matters pertaining to
Palestine and showing no desire
to learn, DIR Macdonald said.
High Commissioner Cunningham,
he added, has no real authority,
since the country is run by the
military, and is quite unhappy
about it. He appears opposed to
the military policies.
DR.. Macdonald endorsed the
view of Judge Morris Rothenberg,

against the unification of Zionist
