UNDULANT FEVER

Undulant fever is a disease OF
man caused by very small bac'
terra. The disease belongs to the
same group of infections of ami.
mails and man commonly re.
ferred to as Brucellosis.
The name "Undulant. fever" Is
derived from the appearance of
the temperature curve seen in
the acute stages of the disease.
Brucellosis in cattle is known
as Bangs Disease" or "Conta-
gious Abortion" It is an impor-
tant reservoir of the disease
agent for man. So also is Brucel-
losis of pigs. Attempts to con.
troll this. disease in animals will
help to reduce the incidence of
the disease in man.
Last year there were d cases
of Undulant fever reported in
the State of Washington. This
incidence is the average for the
past decade, although recent
years have shown an increase
over the last thirties.
In the entire U. S. registration
area, the average reported Incl.
dence in recent years is approx.
mately 5000. It should be EN-.
phasized that this disease is not
well reported, and in all proba.
bility, the true incidence of Tn.
dulant Fever is much greater.
Although not usually fatal,
(the death rate being approx.
mately 21o) Brucellosis in man
is usually chronic, and may be
highly disabling. In the acute
stage, there is considerable ma
laise, fever and sweating.
The chronic stage may be re-
vealed by any number of differ.
ent symptoms, most frequent of |
which are headache, lassitude,
Joint swelling and pain, insom.
MIA and general irritability. |

Angry charges that Juvenile.

Wlck's police court were voiced
Dy Postmaster Walt Woehler al
the Tuesday evening meeting O.
the kenneWick city council.
Woehler cited the case of his
son, who was fined $25 and costs
on negligent driving charge.
HE didn't know what the
charge was - he was asked il
he was guilty or not guilty of
negligent driving" the post.
master declared. "Besides not
being properly instructed by the
Judge, he never should have
been in that court in the first
place."
His statement that police
courts have no jurisdiction over
Juveniles was backed.up by City
Attorney Kenneth Serier and
Benton franklin County Juvenile
Officer Walter Johnson.
TEMPER FLARES
In a slight flare of temper,
Woehler said Johnson had no
trouble with other law enforce.
ment< agencies, that only the
Kennewick situation was at var.
lance with the law.
This remark was also substan.
tiated by Johnson Wednesday
morning, who pointed out that
anyone under the age of IS years
involved in law violation auto.
matically came under jurisdic.
ton of juvenile authorities.
Woehler contended that any
juveniles so fined could 90 to
Superior court and have the
money RENTED.
Appealing for justice in the
police court, Woehler character.
lied it as " a kangaroo court II
there ever was one" -sf

Coupled with his criticism Of
the court was plea for juven.
lie officer on the Kennewick po.
lice force.
my boy is q hero to his
buddies because he was in DO
lice court. That's how criminals
get started,"- Woehler declared.
Asking that the youngsters in
.oWn be given chance, the post
master explained that the force
once had man who did aid and
1elp juveniles. He inquired If
his man could be designated as
Juvenile officer to investigate
md handle all such cases.
Lawrence Scott, mayor pro.

ness is about three months, bu
the disease can last Severa,
years. One of the newer anti
biotics, chlormycetin, shows
promise as a method of treat
ment.
Undulant Fever is very diff
cult to diagnose, even with the
best of facilities and skilled
help. Laboratory tests and skin
tests are available, but require
great care in Interpretation. This
is one good reason why the dis.
ease is believed to be more prev
alent than case reports tend to
indicate.
Fortunately, we know how the
disease is spread to man, and,
therefore, can take steps to pre-
vent its transmission.
In this state about half the
cases are contracted as the re.
suit of raw milk consumption.
The organisms causing the dis.
ease live in the milk secreted by
infected cows.
However, the bacteria will not
survive pasteurization, so the
best way to prevent Undulant
fever is to be certain that all
milk and milk products you con-
sumo have been properly pas.
teurized.
The other half of the human
Brucellosis cases are contracted
by direct contact with diseased
cows, pigs or goats. This con-
tact is usually occupational, &C.
curing in farmers, slaughter.
house workers and veterinari.
ans.
Such spread is very difficult
to control, since the organism
passes readily into small breaks
in the skin. Where there is any
of handling a diseas.
ed animal, rubber gloves or
gauntlets should always be worn.

officers and sanitation personnel to
be constantly on the alert to the
sanitary conditions of all public

1--WE realize that this is con-
tinuous program" he told them,
however, due to the extra load
given to restroom sanitation, in fill
ing stations, bus and railroad sta
placed on the facilities by the tour

every effort should be made to
eliminate all insanitary conditions

lions are not only harmful to aealth,

Mrs. Allen was nurse-companion to
Mrs. Clune for the past eight years.
Her benefactress, wife of pioneer

She said she was not surprised
over her good fortune as her en-
ployer had told her many times that
she would be remembered in the
will.
Her immediate plans for handling
the money are the possible adoption
of Brown baby" and the taking
of several months of rest and quiet.
She has a sister, Mrs. Harriet Des

The recent increase in home fires
with loss of property and lives, par
ticularly of children, has led to
stricter enforcement of city ordi-
nances regarding fire hazards. The
owners of Home Rehabilitation
Corporation, 1928 NV 9TH ave., ad-
wise that the addition of asbestos
siding or concrete block will cor
rect violations effectively and pre-
went loss of homes through con-
domination.
The government is extending
FILA terms to those whose homes
are in need of improvements. The
fact that no down payment is nee
tssary and that low monthly pay
ments can be extended over a three
year period is enabling many home
owners to take advantage Of the
fered. Free estimates are a feature
of the company. Upon a call to them
at 78-3651, one OF their representa-
tRes will call in person to inves-
tigate the needs of the individual
job and explain what the repair
costs would be. He will also explain
FILA terms in detail
Although no one wants to risk
living in a fre-trap. many people
do not realize that their houses
would be destroyed rapidly should
a small fire get started. Even
though they may not have been
.tagged by city officials as violators,
they owe it to themselves and their
families to determine what can be
done to safeguard their property.
The purchase of a house is one of
the biggest investments family
makes, and every precaution should
be taken to protect the purchase. In
addition to repairing it so that it
VIII not go up in flames should a
fire start. it is important to take
precautions to prevent condemna-
ton.
