Rev. Dr. G. W. C. Hill will of- ficiate. Dr. Harris' Statement. “On the . seventeenth Dr. Lyon brought a smear in here to be tested for diphtheria. The case was found to be positive and quarantine made on the house. Two days later Dr. Lyon called me up and stated that the quarantine was preventing Vis- iting Nurses coming into the house to take care‘of Mrs. Goodrich who was sick having just given birth to a child. I told Dr. Lyon that the best thing I could see to do was to send the boy to the diphtheria hos- pital which would automatically re- lease the house soon as the other children’s throats were free from diphtheria Meanwhile the Visiting Nurse association reported to me that one of their nurses had made a visit to the house and reported that there was diphtheria present and that their rules forbade them to enter and care for cases in quarantine and in danger of transmission of communic- able disease. Dr. Lyon called again on the telephone about it and I told him again that the hospital was available and asked vnd the case out there. His answers secemed to indicate that he thought the father would not do it. I again urged that the boy be sent to the hospital to clear up the case and re- lease the guarantine, which Dr. Lyon sald he'd see about. I tried to get in touch with Dr. Lyon later but couldn’t get in touch with him be- cause, 1 learned, he was out of town. I concluded then that everything was straightened out in the house and dropped the matter from my mind *“Meanwhile it was reported to this office in a complaint that the children Of that family were not keeping quar- antine and that open statements had been made by members of the family that they were not going to keep quarantine, upon which I reported to the Mayor, the complaints and the facts as [ knew them and he directed the posting of a guard to see that the q antine was kept The policeman was kept on guard until release cultures showed mem- bers of the family to be free from diphtheria and the quarantine was raised. ““The first 1 knew of any complica- tions was when Dr. Lyon called at the | office and said the woman was dying and I was at fault, because the wom- an was suffering from k of nursing. This was impossible because I was not in any way responsible for the wom- an being without nurse's care. “The department is not in any way responsible for the woman being with- | inasmuch as; out care or nursing, nurses can always be such cases. “Signed, obtained for J.

Taxpayers’ Spokesman Declares That Deficits in Departments Could Have Been Avoided P. S. McMahon. of the Taxpayers association stated today that the school board expenses had reached an amount which was far above what the association had allowed the au- thorities. What he particulary objected to was an item of $3,480 for rewiring the Grammar school which, he said, could have been patched up and done Jater when costs will .be lower.
