Ways of Prevention If it b admitted that influenza is spread solely through dis- charges from the noses and throats of infected persons finding their way in to the noses and throats of other persons suceptable to the diseise no matter what the causative organism or virus may ultimately be determined to be the preventative action logically follows the principles named below and therefore it is not necessary to wait for the discovery of the specific micro-organism or virus before taking such action: 1, Break the channels of communi- cation by which the infective agent passes from one person to another. 2. "Render persons exposed to in- fection immune or at least more re- sistant by use of vaccines. 3. Increase the natural resistance of persons exposed to the disease by augmented healthfulness. "Breaking channels of communication —(a) By preventing droplet infection. 'rhe evidence offered indicates that this is of prime importance. (h) 13y sputum control. The evidence offered indicates that the danger here is due chiefly to contamination of the hands and common eating and drinking uten- sils. (c) By supervision of food and drink. The evidence offered does not indicate much danger of infection through these channels. Use of Vaccines. "Immunization and Vaccines -1. The prevention or mitigation of influenza, per sec. p2. The prevention or mitiS gallon of complications recognized as due to the influenza bacillus or to var- ious strains of streptococci and pneu- mococci. "As to the use of vaccines for the prevention of influenza the committee reports that the evidence ,as to the success or lack of success of the prac- tice is contradictory and irreconcili- able.• In view of the fact that causa- tive organism is unknown there is no scientific basis for the use of any par- ticular vaccine against the primary disease. If used any vaccine must he employed on the chance that it bears a relation to the unknown organism causing the disease. The use of vac- cines for the complicating infections rest or more logical grounds. ' The committee suggests that phy- sical and nervous exhaustion should be avoided by paying due regard to rest exercise, physical and mental labor and hours of sleep.The evidence is conclusive, however, that youth and bodily vigor do not guarantee immun- ity from the disease. Condemns Common Cup . Administrative Procedure—The com mittee recommends laws prohibiting the common drinking cup and impro- perly washed glasses at soda fountains and other public drinking places,There should also be proper ventilation laws and these laws should be enforced. "Since the spread of influenza is re- cognized as due to the transmission of mouth and major discharges, nones- sential gatherings of crowds should be prohibited: Necessary gatherings should be held under such conditions as will insure the greatest possible amount of floor space to each individ- ual together with the maximum of fresh air," "As to the closing of schools the committee submits that here are many questions to be considered whether or not such closing will decrease or in- crease contact among the school chil- dren. "As to churches, the recommenda- tion is made the service should be re- duced to the lowest number consis- tent with the discharge of religious of- fices. "Theatres and moving picture shows A Coal Bargain We, have decided to clear out the whole stock of Bituminous lump coal at 875 per ton at the yards or $9.00 delivered. rhe coal is of the highest Grade Bituminous lump and is a splendid substitute for anthracite.

H. & the committee thinks would be better closed for the reason that it is hard to determine a careless tougher fronf the one who is not careless. It is also believed that the closing of theatres has. s high educational value. ' "The committee however, admits that discrimination on the basis of ef- ficiency, ventilating and general sanit- ation may be feasible. Ventilation and cleanliness should be insisted on in all transportation lines. Should Stop Crowding. "Overcrowding of every kind should be discouraged. Variable opening and closing hours in stores and factories is recommended in order to prevent overcrowding of street car and other transportaion lines. "Public funerals and accessory fun- eral functions should be prohibited, be- ing unnecessary, limited quarters in- creasing possible sources of infection. the much discussed subject of masks the. committee finds that the wearing of masks in a proper manner should he made compulsory in hospit- als and for all who are directly expos- ed to infection and should be made compulsory for barbers, dentist, etc. Isolate All Patients "The committee recommends the isolation of patients sufferings from influenza and the placarding of houses where people fail to observe proper quarantine regulations. "The committee vas unaimous re- commending that no beneficial results could be derived from the use of al- coholic liquors." Huron Co.
