| WARNS AGAINST II TYHPOID FEVER 9 I Surgeon General Os U. S. I | ‘ Public Health Service 9 Warns Vacationists By Joseph 8. Wnsney H , V. p. Staff Correspondent) !iington, June 1 (Ul’*l With K I vac.ition season approaching. Dr. B I Hugh S. Cumming, surgeon gmienil ■ of Hi*’ !’• s I’nblle Health Service, to B I ,|.o i-sited it warning to guard again, t ■ I tvphoid fever. ■ "The disease is caused hy a little 9H niirfoieopic plant known as typhoid ■ I bacilli, which must lie swallowed to ■ produce typhoid fever," Dr. Cumming K I said. “These plants or germs are ■ I usually swallowed cither in drinking 9 | wa" ror milk, provided of course they B I have had a chance to get into the 9 I milk or water. B “Hutter, cheese and ice cream have 9 I I„., n known to convey disease when ■ I contaminated. In fact, germs of tyB ph,nd fever may be swallowed with B I any food handled by what we call a typhoid carrier or which lias been in- ' fected by some other way—flies for Ky example. ■ "These germs may also be gotten ■ ! front direct association with the car- ■ i rier or a person suffering from tyL phoid fever.” Dr. Cumming said it is often asked i how these germs get into water, milk ami other foods. He explained that I invariably it is from the alvine dis- ■ i charge of a person who is suffering from the disease or who is a germ B carrier. Typhoid germs are not visible to the ' naked eye. They are so small that several million could be spaced in a I drop of water or milk. ■ Pure water everywhere will eliminate typhoid fever," Dr. Cumming continued. "The real remedy is pure water, not only that which we drink. I or that in which we bathe, but on all farms, particularly dairy farms that serve as sources of our milk supplies. "There should also be examination of all milk and food handlers to see whether or not some of them may be typhoid carriers. "Pasteurization of boiling for a few minutes of milk and boiling of water when it is of doubtful purity will remove all dangers from typhoid fever or from other milk or water borne diseases. This is an important thing to remember when touring.” — o - Fleets Os Planes And Ships On Great Lakes To Bar Liquor Smuggling Cleveland, June I—(United1 —(United Press) To stein the flow of rum which thirsty Ohioans are expecting from the | liquor dampened shores of Ontario, federal prohibition officials are prej paring to throw up a barricade of B ships, guns, airplanes and men that will resemble the defending forces E of a nation beseiged by countless I hordes of enemy troops. Here are some of the things Arthur f Fenton, collector of customs for ; Northern Ohio, told the United Press his superiors in Washington have promised to help him keep his territory as dry as the Sahara. Three hundred heavily-armed customs agents along the Lake Erie shore from Erie, Pa., to Toledo, O. Three hundred undercover men in Canada to “tip off” coming invasions of rum runners. Radio equipment to keep the "armies” on both sides of the lake in close liaison. A fleet of fast hydroplanes to keep a constant patrol on the coast line. Additions to the present coast guard fleet with heavier armament. Fenton declared that each group of agents stationed along the lake front will be prepared for all emergencies in meeting any efforts of invasion by rum runners. The hydroplanes are to be equipped with rifles and machine guns. The bigger coast guard boats will carry one-pounders. Cleveland will become one of the important bases for the summer campaign against smugglers. A base for one or more hydroplanes is contemplated at. the exclusive Cleveland Yacht Club in Rocky River, a suburb. "Prohibition can be enforced, if they supply sufficient men,” Fenton said. .‘And I have been promised the men and equipment I deem necessary. "I was with the army on the Mexican border. We kept the Mexicans from crossing the line down there. We can keep the rum runners from crossing the line up here. All that is necessary is to have a sufficient force. Washington has promised me that force and I am prepared to show that prohibition can be enforced so far as smuggling goods from Canada in this territory is concerned.” Fenton declared that narcotics and other smuggled goods will not be

overlooked in the concentration upon the rum runners. He asserted that i Hie enlarged force in this district I will enable Hie government to keep' | stricter watch on smugglers of all' ’ kinds. j ——o-— .
