an epidemic of Infant) u. paralysis,

5 and more I'nan 300 hikiren have
died. Health authorities of nation,
rata and elty, aroused by tha menace
not only to ths 1^00,300 babies of the
metropolis but to the whole United
States, hava joined forces la a heroiv
battle against the scourge. Already
a score of uthe.- states Ware reported
AIM victims. So far, however, tha
dUaaee hai been confined largely to
tho New York district, and cases out
side of tho greater city hava been
scattered and few in number.
Yet the danger to other parts of the
reentry has been greatly increased by
the exodus of frightened parents wits
their children to talaVui towns and
rittos. For several dare there people
hava been crowding the New York
ferries and railroad stations ia an ef
fort to escape the epidemic. It Is es
timated that fully 50,000 children of

The Uni tom Bureau of Public
Health ia irful that tha dread

was said by officials of the bureau to
WUh it Is true, they admit, that
earns eases have barn reported south
of New York, there hare always kata
sporadic instances of the disease oc
curring so that the isolated cases are
attributable to ordinary conditions
mare than to spreod of tha disease
frmn the infection in New York elty.
Coeos hava ocenrrad here and there,
and will contlnae to occur bore and
then, but they may hare no connec
tion with the New York outbreak.
A number of the moet skilled sur
geons in the Public Health Service
hare been sent posts haste to New
York toi aid in preventing the spread
nf the disease and also to make eal
donigogieal studies 'as to why the
disease haa spread almost beyond
bounds. The officials of tha public
health service frankly admit that its
surgeons do not know anything like
as much ajout this disease aa they
doaire, and will endeavor to gala more
knowledge of it from the New York
oaanrieocss. k
This disease whose real name ia
polio myelitis, la not peculiar te ths
child alone. Grown persons are sub
ject to it, sad may carry it. It is.
bow ever, more especially a disease of
children, and tho epidemic in New
York ia particularly virulent among
those undor tha ago of aoren. The
Now York epidemic haa the highest
death rate of any that has earn* un

health service.
