Dr. E. W. Norris will supervise all activities and per- sonnel in the Territory, and the location of the office here will'ex- pedite the work formerly handled |through the district office in San Francisco. The location of the new office in the Shattuck Building was neces- |sary because of the crowded condi- !tion of the Federal building. Allen Shattuck had the entire quarte:s | partitioned into several neat of- fices. The carpentry work was d |by James Larsen and the painting | by Fred Wendt. Dr. Norris expressed {hanks for the splendid cooperation 'and assistance of Claude Hirst, | General Superintendent for the ©Of- 'fice of Indian Affairs, who lol.@ed Ithe office furniture. The United | States Public Health Office in | Washington is purchasing the need- red furhishings, but it will be some ‘time before arrival, Dr. Norris said. | Duties Involved Included in the director's duties | will be the supervision of quaran- (tine officers, the scope of w?nch will be increased tremendously by | postwar air travel; relief for sea- men in Alaskan ports, and public health officers detailed to the In- —/!dian Service and the Territorial | Department of Health. He will sérve as llaison officer to the-Alaska De- ! partment and recommend the allot- ment of Federal funds to varions i health projects, " In regard to quarantine inspec- |tion, the object is to prevent the | introduction of infectious and con- | tagious diseases into the country. Number One Problem The number one health problem | of the Territory at present is tu- | berculosis, Dr. Norris said, and the most important ‘work of health offi- cials is the proper education of the public. People must know how the disease s spread, how avoided and | how treated. New methods have \been discovered which give a good | chance, if the case is discovered If you've never owned a Knox “Vagabond” you hi a new satisfaction ahea, of you.

There is room for| improvement in the general sanita- tion in Alaska, and the most press- ing rieed is th# establishment of ad- equate funds for taking care of Public Enemy No. 1, the scourge of tuberculosis. Chlorination | Regarding the ‘chlorination of the | water supply, Dr. Norris stated that | no surface water is permanently drinking, due to the fact that decaying matter often gets into the supply, and chlorination Kill germs which may cause gastric-m- testinal diseases. Typhoid fever, once prevalent, is now rare in the United States due to the work of health oi- ficials in disinfecting the water suo- ply.
