TKOII.WI 1'IMLIITION.
In a recent work entitled "Hos-
quito or Man." Sir Robert Iloyce, io
the preface, savs: t laally, if results
are looked fur, it can be said with
out exaggeration that the tropical
world is today being steadily and
surely conquered. Tie narration of
the numerous campaigns against the
nioeouito which I have here record
ed is signal proof of this. The cam
paigns show that the three great
insect-carried scourges of the tropics
the greatest enemies that mankind
has ever had to contend with, name
ly, Malaria, Yellow Fever, and Sleep
ing Sickness are now fully in hand
and giving way, and with their con
quest disappears the awful and grind
ing depression which seems to have
gripped our forefathers. Now the
situation is full of hope. 1 he mos
quito is no longer a nightmare; it
can be got rid of. The tropica, world
is unfolding once again to the pio
neers of commerce, who now do not
dread the unseen hand of death as
did of old the Spanish ConquisU
dores of Columbus and Cortes. The
British public has and must always
have a paramount interest in this
practical conquest, which is destined
to add a vast slice of the globe, of
undreamt-of productiveness, to their
dominions and activities."
Why has the strong northern blood
which nature attempts constantly to
pour into tropical lands, failed to
gain a foothold? Why have the
tropics not been civilized? Why has
the roost fertile section of the globe
remained uncultivated? Ioea the
northerner forsake the tropics on
account of heat or sickness?
Gorgas in the Canal Zone has
demonstrated that the American can
live in the tropics with as much
safety and do as much work as he
can in the United States. It is not
heat, but death that drove the French
from this region twenty years ago
death from malaria and yellow fever
that buried 50,000 of their laborers
before they forsook the tropics. The
gate to tropical civilization has been
locked for centuries by the mosquito
and the fly that carries sleeping
sickness.
Evidence is accumulating that
suggests, and goes a long way to
ward proving, that the fall of Greece
was due principally to tropical dis
eases imported through their sol
diers returning with prisoners, both
infected, with malaria and other
tropical diseases.
OS THE ATTITVPE OK TUB INDIVIDUAL
The foregoing examples of actual
disease prevention, with still a large
number of uncited examples, do not
leave the question of disease preven
tion to opinion, however eminent
multiplied and numerous opinions
on this point may be; nor is the
question dependent for solution
upon scientific reasoning, however
clear and strong such reasoning may
be. This basic principle of all pub
lic health endeavor, disease prevent-
ability, rests vpon what has actu
AI.I.Y BEEN ACCOMPLISHED.
Now, it follows that if disease and
death are preventable, those having
power to prevent them are respo&
sible for loss of life if this power is
not used. Preventable disease is
subject to public control and pre
ventable death is, therefore, public
crime.
And here, my hasty reader, pause
a moment and consider the relation
of the individual and the public. In
1873 William Budd, writing on ty
phoid fever (it could have been any
other infectious disease), said: "And
let no one suppose that this is a mat
ter in which he has no personal in
terest. The duty itself we may
evade, but we can never be sure of
evading the penalties of its neglect
This disease not seldom attacks the
rich, but it thrives among the poor
But by reason of our common hu
manity we are all, whether rich or
poor, more nearly related here than
we are apt to think. The members
of the great human family are, in
in fact, bound together by a thou
sand secret ties of whose existence
the world in general little dreams;
and he that was never yet connected
with his poorer neighbor by deeds
of charity or love, may one day find,
when it is too late, that be is con
nected with him by a bond which
may bring them both, at once, to a
common grave.
There is no individual with en
lightened public spirit who can dis
regard this most fundamental of all
problems before us the health
problem.
