Statistics show that there has been more typhoid lever in Indiana in the six-year period from 1920-1925 than in any other northern state. In 1933 Indiana had 95 deaths due to typhoid fever. In the many small towns and in parts of our larger cities the privies are a disgrace. In the country districts we often find shallow dug or driven wells with a dirty open privy nearby. Such conditions in this State are a disgrace and should not be tolerated. Just as long as we are willing to eat and drink our own and our neighbor's excretions, just so long, and no longer, will we have typhoid fever. In further support of this subject records for 1934 of the Department of Vital Statistics, Indiana Division Public Health, show 101 deaths from typhoid fever and 107 deaths from diarrhoea. Therefore, in order to free Inniana from its present hazardous and disgraceful one, the cooperation of all citizens concerned is urgently requested. The return on the investment is great, for the individual, and public health are thereby safeguarded. The Community Sanitation Program that is now being conducted throughout Indiana is sponsored by the local, State and Federal Health authorities, in cooperation with the Works Progress Administration- for the purpose of eliminating the grossly insanitary open-surface privies, that are now so prevalent in every county of Indiana, and replacing these with approved type sanitary pit privies. The Sanitary’ privies are constructed in accodrance with plans and specifications furnished by the U. S. Public Health Service, and are being erected by trained and properly’ supervised workers furnished by Works Progress Administration. The unproved privies are constructed in such a manner that flies, insects, rats, or small domsetic animals cannot gain access to the waste material, and they are practically odorless. This program enables any property owner or tenant to hrve any outdoor privy reconstructed, or a new’ one built for the cost of materials only- provided the location complies with local ordinance pertaining to distance from sewers, etc., and the State specifications as to distance from source of water supply. All labor is free. Since these facilities are offered at such a low cost it is to be hoped that the public will take advantage of this program. t Improper disposal of excreta is a grave health hazard, as it fosters the continuance and spread of many dreaded diseases; for example, typhoid, dysentary, hookworm, etc. ALL LABOR Absolutely FREE!
