ANNUAL COST OF DIPHTHERIA OVER $150,000 Immunization Appropriations Too Little, Health Board Finds. Economic losses due to ravages of diphtheria each year in Indiana easily exceed $150,000. or ten times the state's present appropriation for the purchase of free immunizing materials for children, it was pointed out in a bulletin issued by the station public health division .oday. Endeavoring to check physical and economic losses brought t>y the disease, the state and physicians have co-operated in a state-wide vaccination campaign of ail school children. Those who are not able to pay the costs are treated free by physicians. Deaths from diphtheria increase in cyclic periods, according to the state bureau of vital statistics, out they easily may be prevented wholly if parents and science strike together. The bulletin continues: “Diphtheria death rates for the state were first computed for the year 1882. The most interesting observation that runs throughout the entire period is that the disease, while showing a definite downward trend, comes and goes in a somewhat cyclic manner.

“The time between these cycles is, on the average, about twelve years. The last really high year was in 1921, when the death rate reached twenty-four deaths a 100,000 population. “It was expected that there might be another year about 1932 or 1933, and this condition proved to be true last year with 172 fatalities. “The best time to attack the diphtheria problem is at the present time, because there is shown a very definite tendency to increase. We feel free to perdict that if a strenuous effort is made in the present campaign to immunize as large a number of children as possible, w r e shall almost certainly be able to drive the disease to new low levels within the next fer years. Now is the time to strike.” CHAPMAN TO RECOVER FROM BULLET INJURY Whether Mind Will Be Affected Is Unknown, Police Say. Charles Chapman, alleged by police to have confessed that he shot and killed Mrs. Grace Lackey more than a month ago, probably will recover from the self-inflicted bullet wound in his brain, according to city hospital physicians. It was said, however, that it is not known whether or not his mind will be affected. Detective Sergeant John Dugan, attached to the prosecutor’s office, obtained a purported confession several days ago in which Chapman stated he killed Mrs. Lackley, with whom he had been living, as result of a quarrel, and then shot himself in the head. GOVERNMENT HALTS WAR ON CORN-BORER Crop Curtailment Taken From Hands of Entomologists. Indication that the federal government is going to let the cornborer aid the administration in crop curtailment, was seen today in the report received by Frank N. Wallace, state entomologist, that research work of the agriculture department has been halted. Forty entomologists, who for years have specialized in corn-borer control, have been discharged. Mr. Wallace was informed. The letter came from D. J. Coffrey, Toledo, who was head of the control division. It contained names and qualifications of the entomologists displaced and asked that if possible they be given place in state departments where their services would be of value.

BUTLER FOUNDERS’ DAY IS CELEBRATED Dr. Frantz Scores Science’s Teachings at Banquet. The challenge and attack of religion was flung at science last night by Dr. George Arthur Frantz, First Presbyterian church pastor, at the annual Butler university Founders’ day dinner in the Claypool. “We have a life to live,” he said, “and a death to die and can not wait until science is ready with a reply to all our questions.” His topic was “The Interpreter's House” and his theme, that religion is the complete interpretation of life. Dr. Frantz was Introduced by Dr. James E. Putnam, acting president of the university, who briefly paid tribute to the founders and reviewed history of the institution. More than four hundred alumni

Cells Knitting State Prison Inmates to Handle Yarns.

HARD boiled prisoners at the Indiana state prison are to take up knitting. This was decided at a conference of penal institution superintendents with Governor Paul V. McNutt. The knitting program at the prison is part of the effort to inaugurate new “state use” industries, the Governor explained. Products will be sold to. the various governmental units of the state and thus kept out of competitive and interstate trade. The Governor also said that Indiana is one of the twenty-seven states which have signed an NRA code for prison labor. All the penal institutions are permitted to fly the blue eagle under the compact of fair competition for prison industries, he explained.
