MEET YOUR COMMUNITY.
First on the list, there is to
be a resumption of those in
formal Sunday evenings spon-
sored by the League of Wom-
en- for Community Service at
$50 Massachusetts Avenue. Do
you remember them? and
weren't they pleasant occasions?
They were held in the beauti-
full Maria L.. Baldwin Library
and following the reading of a
paper by an authority on an
interesting topic and discussion
of it by members of the audi
ence coffee and delicious home
made cookies were served in
the rear room and a social hour
was enjoyed. Well, the third
in the series of meet Your
Community at $50" will open
Sunday, January 10, at seven
o'clock. In addition, these meet
ing provide a delightful oppor-
tunity to meet newcomers to
the community and to hear of
their interesting and distinc-
tive fields of activity. AS in the
past, the League extends a
very cordial invitation to all to
meet Your Community at $751;"
And later in the month, on
the 18th, comes the Fortieth
Anniversary of that fine Or
ganiZation of women, the Mas
sachusetts State Union of Wom-
ems Clubs, to be held in Ho-
tel Vendome on Commonwealth
Avenue. This will undoubtedly
draw women - and men, too -
from all over the state and
prove a most interesting affair.
Make your reservations by
phoning Mrs. Viola Ryder, 20
Wabon Street, HI. 5-4668, or
Mrs. Melnea Cass, HI 2-O574
=. And another banquet that
should interest musical people,
especially, is the Anniversary
Banquet of the Samuel Coler-
idge-Taylor Musical Association
Mrs. Fila M. Martin, president.
This is the society that holds
such interesting meetings
monthly at 558 Massachusetts
Avenue, organized some thirty
odd years ago by Clarence Cam
eron White, the violinist and
composer. An organization that
can meet continuously for that
length of time must have a
good deal of staying power. The
banquet will be held in Peo-
pies Baptist Church on Thurs
day evening, February 4.
81 PRESIDENTS COMING
An interesting gathering of
college presidents is scheduled
for January IS through Janu-
airy 10. These are the heads of
the 81 colored colleges that ben
eft from the United College
Fund. 1t is the first time that

educators, who meet every year.
The Governor and Mayor will
join in welcoming them to
the city. The meeting that is
thrown open to the public
comes Monday night in John
Hancock Hall - to the public,
that is, by invitation. over a
thousand invitations have been
issued. The New England Com

common to an birds. Many at-
tempts have been made t9 trans
NIT the disease from affected to
unaffected chicks, but for the most
part these attempts have been un-
successful Recent work at the
University Of West Virginia, how-
ever, again raises the possibility
Of direct relationship between
the occurrence Of the hemorrhagic
syndrome and the presence of the
organisms associated with chronic
respiratory disease.
What Can Be Done About III
Since the occurrence Of hemor-
rhagic disease appears to be asso-
ciated in many cases with other
diseases, particularly chronic res
piratory disease, it is only logical
to combat it BY suppressing these
infections through the use Of prop
er sanitation procedures and.
where desirable, appropriate drugs.
Until the role of vitamin X IA this
syndrome is more clearly estab-
lished, it would also appear advis-
able to administer a Yitamin K-ac-
tive substance to affected birds.
Outbreaks Of coccidiosis should be
carefully diagnosed by a competent
person and treated according to
the directions prescribed by the
manufacturer of the drug chosen.
Present experience indicates that
coccidiostats may be safely em-
ployed at recommended levels
without fear Of inducing hemor-
rhages.
Hemorrhagic disease lis a prob
lem in which an members of the
poultry industry have stake. It
calls for a joint effort on the part
Of both governmental and indus
trial laboratories aimed at identify-
ing the factors involved. In recog-
milton Of this responsibility, a pro-
gram Of research is continuing at
the Merck laboratories.
Milford chronicle., 1954-07-16

0.29o we're fed continuously ia the
ration Of birds housed in batteries
for 1913 weeks. Other birds re-
ceived up to 01% in the drinking
water continuously. The basal ra-
tion used in these tests was a COM
mercial formula containing an an
tibiotic, but no menadione and no
arsenical. At the end of this time
no evidence Of hemorrhages has
been observed. When prothrombin
or elOtting times were determined
on blood from the jugular vein,
there were no significant difference
between the treated and control
group. 1t may be pointed out that
the highest level of sulfaquinoxa-
line recommended by the mapufac-
turer is 0.1ao in the feed for two.
or three days, followed by 0.O59o
in the feed for two days, no medica-
tin for three days, and medication
for another two days at 0.059o. The
highest level used in these tests
represents about times the maxi
mum recommended dosage of sui
faquinoxaline for the control of
coccidicsis.
Similar results have been OBJ
tanned following the administra-
ton of 0.29o sulfaquinOxaline con-
tinuously in a ration containing an
arsenical. In other tests, levels as
high as 16% sulfaquinoxaline in
the ration have failed to produce
the hemOrrhagic syndrome. Com
parable experiments with nitrophe-
nice and nitrofurazone at high lev
els have also failed to induce hem
orrhages. The only observations OF
interest were a few 'pin-points
hemorThages in the muscles Of all
birds, regardless of treatment
These spots would not normally be
noticed unless the skin were re-
moved.
This work indicates the absence
Of relationship between the use
Of coccidiostats and the occurrence
OF hemorrhagie disease when a
complete ration is fed to healthy
birds. These compounds have auto-
matically been absolved in some
field cases, since outbreaks have
been observed in flocks which have
never received coccidiostats.
Specific Disease: The pattern of
outbreaks is often suggestive Of an
infectious agent Thus, hemor-
rhages may be found in only one
house OH a farm or even in only
one pen In house Such a distri-
button is not indicative Of a causa-

active compounds has been vari-
able. In some instances it has ap-
peared that administration Of me-
nadiOne or some other Vitamin X
active compound has been effective
in terminating mortality attribu-
table to hemOrrhagic disease. Un-
fortunately, it has seldom been pos
sible to maintain adequate con-
trolls, and the importance Of ade-
quate controls is emphasized by
the common observation that birds
with the hemorrhagic syndrOme re-
cover spontaneously without treat
ment. In fact, many cases Of the
disease appear to be self-limiting
and clear up in approximately two
weeks.
1t now seems quite clear that
many field outbreaks of hemorr-
hagic disease cannot be accounted
for in terms of a vitamin X de-
ficiency. For one thing, the disease
occurs on feeds supplemented with
menadione. For another, affected
tocks have not always responded
to vitanin X therapy. In addition.
changes in the blood and bone mar
row occur which are not encoun-
tered in vitamin X deficiency. and
in at least some cases the blood
prothrombin and clotting times of
hemorrhagic birds are normal. A
deficiency of vitamin X invariably
causes prolonged prothrombin
time.
1t would be well to caution here
against the literal Interpretation of
labOratory-prOduced vitamin X de-
tciency as having releVance for
field conditions. In the first in
stance chicks are fed simplified ra-
tions selected for low vitamin X
potency, the birds are maintained
out of contact with litter which
serves as a source of vitamin X,
and in some experiments drugs are
administered far in excess of re-
commended levels on top of the de-
ticient ration. In practice, birds are
fed complex rations containing al
falfa meal as a source of vitamin
X, they obtain vitamin X from the
litter and are given medication al
levels found to be safe by control
led experimentation and field ex-
perience.
Effect OF Drlgs: Extensive ef-
forts have been made in the Merck
Institute to produce the hemorrhag-
ic syndrome by feeding high levels
OF coccidiostats. In the. case of sui
faquinoxaline, graded levels up to
