Health Authorities of Thirty
Eight States to Flan
Campaign.
NOTED MEN TO ATTEND
. Washington, Aug. 17. What of
ficial regard as one of the most im
portant medical conferences in the
country' history will meet here to
morrow to discuss means of combat
ting infantile paralysis.
t Health authorities from thirty-eight
states. Officials of the Federal Public
Health service and many leading
scientists will exchange views on
methods of treatment and prevention
and will work out a more definite
scheme of co-ordinating their cam
paign against the disease. Repre
sentatives of various railroads will be
present for consultation on the ques
tion for checking a further territorial
spread.
Health Service Aroused.
While officials here have insisted
that there is no occasion for panic
and no likelihood of a country-wide
epidemic, there is every indication
that the health service has become
thoroughly aroused by the persistence
of the disease in spite of the best ef
forts of local and federal officials.
The outbreak has presented many de
velopments baffling to scientists and
there are questions relating to the
origin, transmission and control of
the disease on which authorities dif
fer widely.
All of the subjects will be gone over
in detail at the conference which
frobably will last at least two days,
his statement regarding its purposes
was issued tonight at the Treasury
department which has the health serv
ice under its jurisdiction:
Reason for Conference.
"The conference is made necessary
by-the seriousness of the infantile
paralysis situation and is considered
one ot tne most important confer
ences of this sort eyer held.
"Consideration will be given to the
prevention of the interstate spread of
the disease, research problems,
symptomatology, epidemiology, gen
eral principles of control and the rela
tion ox tne aucrcarc oi lnianmc
paralysis patients.
"One of the most important points
that will come up for discussion un
doubtedly will be the prevention of
the interstate spread of the disease."
In his call for the conference, issued
Auirust 9. Surgeon General Blue.
asked each state to send one repre
sentative. Four secretaries of state
health boards are among those who
have been designated to attend, while
twenty-four other states have desig
nated chief health officers, health
commissioners or other officials to
represent them.
Scientist to Attend.
In the absence uf the surgeon gen
eral, who is ill at Hot Springs, Va.,
Acting Surgeon General Glennan will
open the conference. Secretary Mc
Adoo will make an address and then
reports on the prevalence of the dis
ease in the various states will be
heard before discussion of research
nroblems. svmntoma and methods of
cure are taken up.
Among those who had arrived to
night for the meeting are eminent
scientists, bacteriologists, physicians,
surgeons and leaders in past cam
paigns against various diseases. Ex
perts with long experience in com
batting infantile paralysis are included.

BRYAN HAS PLAN
FOR JAIL ISSUE
Would Apply Principle Set
Down in Treaties Between
Nation.
MESSAGE TO EMPLOYES
Lincoln, Neb., Aug. 17. W. J.
Bryan sent the following telegram
Tuesday, suggesting the peace-treaty
plan for settlement of the differences
between the railroads and their em
ployes in the present crisis:
"Mssrs. Garretson, Stone, Carter
and Lee, Railroad Brotherhoods, New
York If it is found impossible to
agree upon arbitration, I venture to
suggest for your consideration the
plan embodied in the new peace
treaties between this nation and thirty
other nations, representinga three
fourths of the population of the
world. These treaties provide for in
vestigation of all disputes before re
sorting to war, but reserve the right
of independent action at the conclu
sionsof the investigation. The fact
that the commission's report is not
binding on the parties insures fair
ness. The commission on investiga
tion provided for in the treaties is
composed of five members, one ap
pointed by each nation from among
in own citizens, one appointed by
each nation from a friendly nation,
and the fifth is agreed upon-by the
contracting parties.
"In applying this plan to the pres
ent labor dispute, each side could ap
point one member from ' among its
own ranks and one member from the
outside. The fifth member could be
agreed upon by the parties or be
selected by the president.
"Pleading, as justification for this
suggestion, my deep interest in the
industrial situation and my earnest
desire for an amicable settlement
which will be just to all concerned,
I am, Very truly yours,
"W. J. BRYAN."
