Strong,. professor .of tropical diseases in the Harvard = university medical school and chlef surgeon of the International - Health Board ‘at Nish, Serbia, had cabled that if he ‘had $20,000 additional at his com- mand, he could finally free Serbia en- tirely of typhus and other epidemic diseases and put the country on a thoroughly unltp_ry basis. The mon- ey was promptly transmitted to Df. 0.1t wap Rockefeller foundation and $10,000 by the Red Cross. It was ‘stated at the offices of the Red Cross that the work of the sani- tary commission sent to Serbia under Dr. Strong had been a great success. Dr. Strong and his assistants arrived in Serbia three —months ago. The country was destitute, and the typhns cases ran into the tens of thousands. Cholera seemed imminent and typhoie fever, smallpox, and other . diseases were epidemic. Now, it is declared, Serbia, as a result of the thorough work of the commission, is the clean~ est and healthiest country in the Bal kans. The commission has placed Montenegro in an almost equally good corldltlom e Red Cross gave out the first installment of Dr. Stroug's diary. This, written at odd moments, begins with an account of the inspection by Dr. Strong of the town hospitals and barrdcks of the little city' of Metray- itza. . After that, one ‘of the first places visited was Pech, in Montene- gro.. There, Dr, Strong says, he was his hands safely, so frightefully un- sanitary were tht conditions. There were no disinfectants, no place to bathe the hundreds of typhus patients no clean clothes, no clean bedding. “At 8:30 a. m., (this 1s late in May,)”" Dr. Strong says in his diary, “I met the Prefect, who is a first cousin of the King, and the com- manding general at Pech, and had a long interview with them. I have ar- -ranged to disinfect the hospitals, the patinets and their clothes: We shall place in tents the troops that are now in barracks while we are dmn(acunt théir (quasters, ‘¢clothes, and bedding.

The gendarme in command begged me not to camp in the ‘open, saying it was very dagerous to do so. However, as I had not slept for twenty-eight hours 1 did not feel like going on at that Hour of the night and spending it at an infected hotel, A campfire was started ‘and Mr. Brink made some cof- fee -and fried ;some bacon. This we ate, together with ‘a tin of salmon and some biscuits. ¥k } “Our’‘'meal ,had hardly been fin- ighed before a curious incident hap- pened. A man, screaming with all his lung power, came running into our vicinity, chased by an Albmh.n with a rifle i his hands. This man claimed, as'we found out later, thut the Albanian was trying to kill him. It secems the Albanian had seen our camp fire and 'had crossed the bor- der to find out what it meant. Wa _gave him something to eat, and he at once become very friendly. By signs he intimated to us ‘that we should put the camp fire out and lie down and go to sleep. In fact,-he several times tried to put the fire out himsell and kept pointing to the Albanian frontier, every once in a while rais- ing his rifle to his shoulder as it | about to fire, indicating, we presumed that we were in danger. “As the rain was now pouring down, we decided to go to bed. We had no tents with us, but had the canvas covers for our hammogcks. We spread our bedding on the ground and then climbed under the canvas.

We started on our walk to the town of Djakovitza, which we reach- ed about 5:45 AM.

You see, I am livihg up to my habit of stopping only one night at one place. I found cablegrams and let« ters awaiting me.
