Pa^e Pcur / THE PILOT, Southern Kines and Aberdeen, North Carolinn Friday^ June 9, 1939. POLIO EPIDEMIC UNLIKELY IN N. C., SAYS DR. REYNOLDS State Health Department Head Does Not Fear Outbreak But Is Taking Precautions 134 CASES IN S. C. With 134 cases of poliomyelitis in South Carolina, mostly in Charleston, precautions are being taken in this state against an outbreak of a rep etition of the epidemic so serious here in 1935. Though the epidemic in South Carolina is still increasing, there is, according to Dr. Carl V. Reynolds, head of the North Caro- iina Department of Tealth, no acuse for concern in this state. In a state ment to The Pilot Dr. Resmolds says: “North Carolina recognizes that an increase in the prevalence of pol iomyelitis—inffcntUe paralysis—now exists in certain sections of South Carolina. While we do not anticipate any widespread prevalence in this state, we wish to be on the alert for the development of any cases in our border counties which may have any particular epidemiological connection with cases in South Carolina. “Health authorities in our border counties in North Carolina have been | notified to be on the careful watch I for potential cases coming within ( their territoi-y, giving their careful attention to such cases over a period of two weeks. It ig definitely under stood, however, that no quarantine regulations or restrictions have been advocated by this office for the trav eling public. We have encouraged the health authorities of the State of North Carolina to observe over a period of two weeks indiivduals com ing out of areas where the preva lence of the disease is high. If more rigid .Irjstructions are thought to be justified in any special counties of the state, this is a ihatter within the jurisdiction of local authorities. Fears Na Outbreak “When I say we do not fear any widespread outbreak, I mean simply this: If history repeats its-.-lf, as is customary in such epidemics, the ep idemic of 1935 affords protection to the citizens of North Carolina, with the exception of those bom since that period. Analyzing the situation, we have had approximately 320,000 births over the four-year period, of whom 277,000 are now living which, on the percentage basis, means that eight percent of the total population is susceptible, which is far below the average number of susceptibles which would justify or anticipate an epi demic. It must be understood, how ever, that this is a mere guess, but we believe it is based on a logical assumption. Tha conclusion would be, if correct, that North Carolina stands to an advantageous position and that we and the traveling public have little to fear. But we must always be mindful of the potential sources of danger and guard against them ’’ In Recorder’s Court state Takes Nol Pros With Leave in Case Against Arnold Pent TO MAKE CROP SURVEYS THROUGHOUT THE COUNTY A supervisor’s school for the pur pose of training a group of men to measure crop land preparatory to a county-wide survey to determine the degree of compliance with soil con servation and AAA allotments will be held in Carthage today and Sat urday. R. F. Liowery of Cameron wUl be in charge of the wo^k. Assistant County Agent W, G. Caldwell said 12 to 15 workers would be trained in the school and that after their approval the survey will begin, probably some time next week^ if aerial maps arrive in time. The survey, which will require at least six weeks for completion is made for the purpose of determining what benefits a farmer will receive under the conservation program or what penalties shall be applied. In the case of cotton where quotas are in effect, quotas will be on basis of poundage per acre if the basis of poundag;e per acre if the survey shows allotment is overplanted. Area devoted to crops will be checked bjy aerial maps and the ac tual acreage determined in most cases by scale measurements. Cald well said this method had proved more accurate than land measure ments.
