DREAD TYPHUS IS CONQUERED BY FLEA SERUM U. S. Surgeon Announces Absolute Preventive Against Disease. By f nitrd Pm* WASHINGTON, June 20.—1n a serum made from fleas, medicai science has found an absolute pre- i ventive against typhus fever, a plague dreaded through the centuries. The discovery, announced today by the United States public health service, was made after years of research by Dr. R. E. Dyer, "a surgeon in the health service,” In the course of the experimentation Dr. Dyer and his associates deliberately exposed themselves to infection with typhus and demonstrated the effectivenes of the serum. It had been known that typhus is carried py rats and mice. But it was not until early this year that Dr. Dyer established definitely that the dreaded malady is transmitted to human being only by parasites such as fleas which suck the blood of the infected rats and, then bite humans. Fleas Combed From Rats For months Dr. Dyer worked with typhus-infected fleas combed from rats and mice. In his experiments he placed the infected insects on his arms and legs at night and over week-ends, at j the risk of contracting the disease. To make the serum, fleas which had been fed on infected rats were j crushed in a mortar. This material j then was rubbed into scratches on the bodies of guinea pigs. Dr. Dyer was to be awarded an honorary degree today by Kenyon college, Lambier, 0., from which he graduated in 1907. He received his medical degree from the University of Texas in 1915 and almost at once began his experiments with typhus. Typhus fever has been dreaded in Europe for centuries. During the middle ages, typhus plagues swept i throughout central Europe. Outbreaks Follow Wars Serious outbreaks usually follow a j war, and the disease is still extreme-

Until 1854 typhus I was believed to be identical with* typhoid fever. The disease takes a less severe form in this country, known technically as endemic typhus. I 1930, forty-eight cases were reported to the health service, with nine fatalities. Until 1910 the United States was considered free from the diseases, except for occasional cases brought in from other countries. Since then, however, there have been outbreaks along the Atlantic coast in southern states, particularly Alabama and Georgia.

SEE ROOSEVELT NOMINATION ON FIRST BALLOT N. Y. Governor’s Managers Thinks He Has Enough Ballots to Win. BY RAYMOND CLAPPER United Pres* StefT Correspondent iCoovrißht. 1932. bv United Press! CHICAGO, June 20.—The Roosevelt camp came forth today with optimistic claims of victory for the New York Governor on the first ballot in next week’s Democratic j national convention as both major factions agreed, generally, that the Democrats must not “pussyfoot” on | prohibition. On hand before the "stop Roosevelt” forces have been able fully to consolidate their position, the Roosevelt people claimed today that Roosevelt will have 691 votes for | the presidential nomination even before the voting starts. James Fraley, 6 feet tall and athi letic, campaign manager for Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt, insisted these 691 votes will turn to 770 ■ —or more—before the roll is over. It takes 770, or two-thirds of the total 1,154, to nominate. Farley and his associates predicted a scramble to get aboard the "band .wagon” as pledged or instructed delegates roll up the most imposing figures of any group. However, the “stop Roosevelt” forces are yet to be heard from. Their generallisimo, former Governor Alfred E. Smith, is due Tuesday or Wednesday, and is expected then to undertake crystallizing the anti-Roosevelt sentiment, and aligning delegations with “favorite sons” to throw their power against Roosevelt, once they are released from pledges or instructions. The position against “pussyfooting” on prohibition was made clear by rival spokesmen here over the week-end as preparations were made for opening the Democratic national convention one week from today. James A. Farley, spokesman and campaign manager for Governor Franklin D. Roosevelt of New York, said, “I think the Democratic convention should meet the issue squarely and not pussyfoot.” Jouett Shouse, Chairman of the
