After the divorce, due to her
modest income, Mrs. Stevenson

live with her much of the summer.

She pays a modest rental for

Mrs. Stevenson spends most of

Mrs. Stevenson said, referring to
the country place.

80 Die, 500 Stricken
In California Epidemic
Of Sleeping Sickness
BY the Associoted Press

SAN FRANCISCO, Aug. 22.-An
encephalitis epidemic is creeping
northward up California's central
valleys, borne on the wings of the
tiny female mosquito.
Already the sleeping sickness
has claimed 80 lives and nearly
500 have been reported stricken
the State Health Department re-
ported.
Twelve died within the last
week.
Doctors are powerless to check
the disease. There is no known
vaccine for humans.
Spraying 276 Towns.
The only hope is to kill off the
mosquitoes. Hundreds of men are
spraying 276 towns in the valley
lowlands and then laying down
quarter r-mile-wide barriers of poi
son residue spray around them.
The female culex tarsalis mos
Iquito-common in California
carries the disease from birds and
fowl to horses and humans. 1t is
not carried from horses to hu-
mans.
A total of 499 cases have been
reported to the Health Depart
ment, but only 315 have been
clinically diagnosed as ence-
lphalitis.
Two Blood Tests Necessary.
Two blood tests from the pa
tient are necessary to determine
absolutely that the disease is en-
cephalitis. In most of the re-
ported cases, the necessary two
blood tests were not taken.
! DR.. Malcolm Merrill, acting di-
rector Of the Health Department,
said the disease acts quickly
Those stricken usually recover
quickly or die within "a to 48
hours.
DR.. Merrill said the epidemic
may reach as far north as Shasta
County-near the Oregon border
before summer is over. He said,
however, it is not expected to
branch out of the interior valleys.

She Made Speeches
Throughout Illinois
During Compuign
By Joy McMuIIen

CHICAGO, Aug. % (CDN).-
Adlai Stevenson's wife renewed
her requests for a divorce in 1948
before her husband launched
his race for the governorship of
Illinois.
However, she put off filing the
suit until after the campaign and,
after Adlai was elected, until the
first session of the Legislature.
Apparently there were hopes
she would change her mind in
the interim as she had done be-
fore, according to friends.
She previously had asked for a
divorce in 1941, but dropped the
idea after a brief separation.
After her 1948 request, Mrs.
Stevenson helped persuade Adlai
to run for Governor.
Adlai was reluctant to run for
the nomination. despite the pleas
of Col. Jack Arvey, then Cook
County (Chicago) Democratic
chairman.
Mr.. Arvey talked with Herman
Dunlop Smith, a close adviser of
the Governor. They approached
Mrs. Stevenson to ask her to help
persuade him.
This she did.
Didn't Dislike Public Life.
Disclosure of her role in Adlai's
decision to run punctures another
myth that has grown up in the
aftermath of their divorce-that
of her alleged distaste for public
life.
Mrs. Stevenson campaigned
vigorously for the Governor.
She stumped a large part of the
State, including the South Side
of Chicago, making brief cam
paign addresses in an encourage
led by Emily Taft Douglas, former
Congresswoman at large who was
campaigning for her husband,
Senator Paul Douglas.
II made my pathetic little
speech each time and that was
that" Mrs. Stevenson said.
MY speech never lasted more
than five minutes"
She shattered another false
legend that has grown up around
her life as the wife of Illinois
Governor-that she didn't like
Springfield.
II wasn't there very long, but
life in Springfield was fun-and
it was interesting.
I'm London, Paris or New York
if you change drawing rooms you
can't usually tell it by the people
you meet. You might as well stay
in one place, they're so much
alike.
I'm Springfield, you always
knew you were in Springfield.
"The people there were real
people on their own"
Recalls Fighting Bills.
Mrs. Stevenson recalled how she
tried to help the Governor defeat
the Broyles bills against COM
munism.
The so-called Broyles bills
were six measures aimed at out
lawing communism and Com
muniStS In the public schools and
in public affairs.
81 was invited to dinner with
so Senator'S" she related.
"It was slightly unprecedented, >
she continued. II was the only
woman present-that was my only
official dinner"
Mrs. Stevenson said she told
former State Senator A. L. Marc
vitz, who was leading Gov. Steven
sons fight against the Broyles bills
that she would kiss any Senator
who voted against them.
To her surprise, Mr.. Marovitz
iannounced this at the dinner.
They were pretty courtly about
