with the epidemic of Influenza In New

England have been established at Boston by the public health service.

More than 100 physicians already have been sent to that city from districts where the disease is not at present a particular problem, and the service is getting together a mobile per

sonnel, which can be sent' to other

points, if necessary, when the epi

demic subsides In New England.

Physicians were ordered today to

report to a number' of cities which have not previously been Included in the operations of the service against influenza. These places included Wilmington, Del., where five doctors were sent; Chester, Pa., and Hopewell, Va. Physicians also have been sent to Bethlehem, Pa.. Wilmington, N. C, Bath, Me., and Florence, Ala. Many nurses also have been sent to various cities and others are being mobilized for duty. As a further step In the campaign to prevent an epidemic in Washington, which is crowded with war workers, the commissioners of the District of Columbia today ordered all theatres and motion picture houses closed after tonight until the disease is stamped out. Precautions Taken. Thus far only comparatively few cases have been reported here, but extraordinary precautions are being taken so as to keep influenza away from employes of government bure

aus, where work is vital in handling the war machinery. .Not even in inauguration times have such crowds gathered in Washington. The tremendous increase in population, with difficulty of finding quarters and with high rentals, has caused doubllng-up everywhere. In hundreds of cases as many as three and four persons occupy a single room. , Reports regarding the spread of influenza came to the public health service today from many states. A j

number of outbreaks were reported in Indiana, Including 200 cases at Hammond with nine deaths; several hundred cases at Nobles ville; many cases with five deaths, at Lafayette; 100 cases at Newcastle and several hundred cases at Indianapolis. ; From Oswego, N. Y., came a report of 2,000 cases, while 161 cases were reported at Chillicothe, O. New Mexico and Arizona also reported a few cases, the first from those states. In Arizona there were sixty cases in a normal school at Flagstaff and 200 cases at Winslow. Forty cases were reported at Gallop, New Mexico.
