Bungalow Aprons 1 By the Associated Press. Surg. Gen. Cumming of the Public| Health Service said yesterday that while | influenza prevalence and mortality iu'E the United States are still decreasing, | there is as yet no indication that lhf’: predicted sccond and more severe wave | of the disease will not materialize. Reports from 41 States, the District | of Columbia and New York City tod: showed a total of 16,612 new cases dur ing the week ending February 9, com pared with 25,129 in the same territory during the preceding week. Not Yet Near Normal. “This is a substantial decrease,” Dr. Cumming sal “but with more than 16,000 cases reported in one week, it {s impossible to believe the epidemic has subsided to near normal conditions.” Information he has received from Europe indicate that the outbreak there | is widespread and in some places seri- | ous, he added. “The vigilance with which the public in this country,” he continued, “has observed precautionary m 'es prob- | ably has saved scores of lives.” A cable to Dr. Cumming from Eu-| Tope today indicated that the influenza | death rate in Spain has been rising; rapidly during the past three weeks, the present rate in Madrid being 34.4 per hundred thousand population. Disease Mild in Form. In Italy, Dr. Cumming said, the dis- ease is prevalent, but is mild in form. There has been a marked increase in prevalence in Czechoslovakia during the past week. In another section of the world virtually the entire population of Rotuma, an island off the coast of Australia, has been stricken. ‘State reports in this country indi- cate the outbreak is siding in many sections,” he said, “but the prevalence | 15 still increasing in some parts. Texas, for instance, had a large increase during the past weck. The outbreak in New England is far from over. There has been as yet no definite indication that the present w will not be followed | )y a more severe outbreak during the | months of cold weather still ahead.” GEORGETOWN GIVEN BUST OF CARNEGIE | 8chool of Foreign Service Present- ed With Casting of Famous Work %7 Sir William John.
