This is the proper attitude for an administrative official and, in fact, is the attitude adopted by the vast majority of the men who compose the executive de- partment of our government.

Flannagan, Jr. of Virginia, who points out that last year the Federal Trade Commission, after making a sur- vey in 1936, reported that con- sumers are paying from three to ten times the price received by farmers. Mr. Fulmer’s idea, as we un- derstand it, was an up-to-date marketing system from rural reg- ions through local, state and na- tional agencies, under a farm cooperative program that would provide facilities for proper grad- ing, storage and other essential services. Mr. Flannagan points out that every time a handling charge is added to a farm product, after it leaves the farms, the charge comes off the farm price or is mar30-tf \ girl, and young white boy for! kitchen work.

Dr. E. F. Hoffman, director of | the bureau of Epidemiology said‘ that the tardiness, and in some cases complete negligence in ad- community wellbeing, in turn im- { pairs the efficiency of the state! P' machinery established to aid in controlling disease outbreaks. Particularly did he mention ty-, phus fever as a glaring illustra- tion of physicians not reporting cases immediately, and in many, not reporting them at all. The! state knows of any number of, counties which had a large rata! of typhus last year, with not one case officially reported. Many other counties have only about half their actual typhus in- cidence on file with, the state. “Typhus is the ofie disease that is consistently on the upgrade in Florida. It is gratifying that one community after another is be- ginning to take steps to control the fever’s source, the RAT, but this is primarily inspired by the staggering property .destruction wrought by the rodent each year. Florida’s greatest price for: rat! harborage is being paid in the health of our citizens—in the in- crease of typhus, which is caused by the bite of the flea that lives on the RAT. “This particular type of typhus (endemic), peculiar to America, is seldom fatal, but it does cause serious illness and devitalization. It also requires long months for recuperation, And this is cer- tainly no time for any person to be out of circulation because of sickness. “It is easily seen that it is im- possible for the State Board of Health to be conversant with a statewide condition, and function to its maximum capacity without being informed by physicians of current cases—a gesture called for on the statute books.” Dr. Hoffman pointed out an-} other instance where a county last year had a food poisoning outbreak with more than 30 per- sons stricken. Yet to this writ- ing not a single physician has re- ported one case to the state au-} thorities. “Cancer is another of the more glaring instances where new cases are not being reported. Each ear there are approximately 2,-! hs from this disease in} than half this} r reported as be-| number is ev ing ill “We realize that physicians are overworked, that they often man-| age with restricted personnel. Yet} a chain is only as strong as its weakest link, and their failure to! report communicable diseases is) fast becoming that link in the state’s chain to ccatro! disease.
