Some medical writers suggest that -enforcement of certain precautionary measure, difficult to achieve in peace- time, become more feasible in war- time, In ordinary times, universal en- forcement ,they point out, falls by the wayside because of indifference, care- lessness and lack of a common spirit of co-operation. An example of this, they indicate, is smallpox vaccination. Nobody knows how large an unvaccinated population we have. Health boards try to enforce it, with indifferent success. Every once in a while, when smallpox bhaks out in a certain community, we are shocked to find that a large proportion of the population is unprotected. The same situation applies to uni- versal typlibid innoculation; and in its current program for Toxoid Week, the Health League of Canada is en- deavouring to bring diphtheria under effective control.
