Parents Cautioned
On Jaundice Signs

District residents have been
cautioned to watch for early
symptoms, similar to those of
influenza, which may indicate
jaundice.
DR.. Daniel L. Seckinger, Dis
trict Health Director. said a re-
cent outbreak of infectious hepa-
tits or jaundice among school
children at Poolesville, Md,
should alert parents. teachers
and physicians to look for signs
of the disease.
DR.. Seckinger said he could
not say definitely how many
cases there are in the District
because it is not a "reportable
disease" He said the number is
not, apparently, alarming.
He said that while the means
of transmitting the disease is
not definitely known, general
sanitation procedures should be
followed.
He said also that a limited
supply of gamma globulin is
available through the Health
Department upon physicians
request. Gamma globulin, he
said. gives protection for six or
eight weeks, even if given during
the early stages of the disease.
He said use of gamma globulin
against the disease will not affect
the supply available for protec-
ton against polio, since it is
controlled through another
source.

the size of the Supreme Court
permanently at nine: and take
away the right of Congress to
deprive the Supreme Court of
appellate jurisdiction in cases
involving constitutional ques-
tionS.

dorsed and that "the matter was
not later brought to my atten-
