With the American peuple shoving today a new' concern for public timely £o take a look around us and ^ee what has been done on our own continent in the field of organized sanitation. The Pan American Sani tary 3ureau, an organization of long “Many years before the Good Neighbor policy was heard of, the ao- vmm fiyy. dr in tie task of preventing the spread of dis ease in the Americas. Through such important and practical activities as improving international disease re porting. draining swamps for the rid dance of mosquitoes, killing disease carrying rats, disinfecting drinking water, rushing aid by airplane to an flood or e-arthquake, the bureau has created feelings of friendship and respect that are deep and lasting.” FAITHFUL Pfc. Shelbert Ores, the son of Ophelia Ores, RFl) 1, William ston, has been in the service for over three and one-half years, and has seen more than eight months service in the European theater. His commanding offi- j ccr recently commended Ores on his outstanding service and fidelity as a member of his com- j mand. The bureau itself was created pri marily to protect commercial inter ests. At the turn of the century in fectious diseases and consequent quarantines and closing of ports in ■ terfered with trade and business in such a way that it was thought ad visuble to establish an ori»; mi ration which would try to remedy such con ditions At the Second Pan Ameri | can Conference, held in Mexico City in 19t)2, the Pan American Sanitary Bureau was created as an indepen dent office, housed in the building of the Pan American Union and co ; operating closely with its divisions, j but distinct from it. Financed by contributions from each country in i proportion to its population, the bur eau has gone way beyond its origi nal aims and is today the oldest in ternational health body in existence. Not only does it seek to prevent dis eases and thus eliminate quarantines, but it secures reports on sanitary conditions, educates the people t o Sore Tender Aching Feet In Just FI** Minute* Th*** Sor*, T*nd*r, Aching F**t G*t Almost Amaxlng ftellcf In just one minute after an application of Enwr'ld Oil you’ll get the surprise ot your lift.

It strives, in one word, to develop efficient urban and rural sanitary services in the American republics. j With the aid of a competent head quarters staff including doctors, edi tors, writers, librarians, research workers and stenographers, a serv | ice of field experts among whom are physicians, public health hygienists, sanitary engineers, veterinarians, 1 nurses, entomologists and laboratory [ workers, and with the cooperation of national and local officials, the Pan I American Sanitary Bureau is wag ‘ ing a great battle for health. Thanks I to its efforts and to the campaign it started in 1930 in Peru and Ecuador, plague, for instance, has almost dis appeared from those two countries where it was more prevalent than anywhere else in Latin America. In accordance with its policy of aiding health departments to act indepen dently in an efficient way, the bur eau so well trained health officials in Peru that they were, in turn, able to assist other countries in plague research and control. The work done by the Pan American Sanitary Bur eau in connection with the Concep cion, Chile earthquake in 1939 is another remarkable example of the excellent results achieved by this office. “While the radio in the city of Concepcion was still reporting the catastrophe, more than 5000 air miles from Washington, the bureau cabled its offer of services of doctors and engineers. Chile answered “What we need most is pure drinking water; send us chlorine.” Within two hours the bureau had secured the chemical and a top priority to send it by plane. Meanwhile the bureau's engineer in Chile had left Santiago by air for Concepcion. Just four days after ar riving, he reported that the emergen cy drinking water supply was safe and abundant.” In the fight against malaria—the scourge which is said to cause more deaths than any other disease—the bureau has again prov ed most successful. The malariolog ists on its Malarial Committee have been active in both the theoretical and the practical fields. From de tecting dangerous stagnant water, probable breeding site for mosqui toes, to making a complete list of the species of this insect that carry malaria in our continent, the com mittee has worked well and efficient- | ly. Still another activity of the Pan American Sanitary Bureau is the pro tection of tourists traveling from one area to another. Again, nurses are being trained, hospital course's estab lished, sanitary engineering classes ^ organized and scholarships awarded ! to Latin American medical students) who come to the United States to study health work. “Every four years ■ a health conference is held in one of I the large cities of the United States or Latin America. Here the officers ' of the sanitary bureau are elected | and the work of this office and its ! problems are discussed. A few of the subjects taken up at the most recent conference in Rio de Janeiro were, continental defense and public health, nutrition, child care, sanita tion in air transportation, school hy giene and rural sanitation.” The Pan American Sanitary Code, in exist ence since 1924 and which each country swears “to enforce to pre vent fbe spread of disease and pro mote the health of the whole hem isphere,” is—it is interesting to note —the first treaty to be ratified by all the American Republics.
