Bl sionsr lof heaith, has rt on the Spanish f repo; 5 za epidemic in Connecticut, last year, | report. which he finds was first New London and spread from theye. His report follows: J The beginning of the influenza epi- demic in Connecticut cccurred in New , in the eastern part of the state, about September 1, 1918, when several cases were reported by the na- val hospital located there. These cases .originated at the Experimental Station and Fort Trumbull where ves- sels from foreign ports had discharged patients. Within a day or two sev- eral cases were brought to the hospital from the submarine base located two miles above New London. During tho, first ten days of September about onc, hundred cases were sent to the New London naval hospital. On.Sept. 9, three cases were report- ed among the civilian population ad- joining Fort Trumbull, all of which were among embloyes in the fort. From September 12 onward many cases were reported, especially from the government station on the state pier, where three hundred men from the Boston Navy Yard had arrivi, September 10. ' Nearly seven thoucar... f the naval men in the New London istrict were billeted in civilian homes, and the disease became generally pre- valent among the civilians before the end of the month. The total number of civilian cases reported in New Lon- don for September was 901; for Octo- ber, 936. No reports or statistics were furnished by the naval department af- ter the first few cases. Although the disease appears to have been primarily introduced into Connecticut by ships arriving at New London from abroad and by men com- ing there from the Boston Navv Yard, numerous foci develonped in vorious parts of the state about the middle of September, the source of which was traced to other military establish- ments, principally Camp _Devens, Mass. The towns of Wallingford, Windbam, Hartland, Rockville and Danbury were among the earliest af- fected, and in each of them a definite hictory. was obtained showing the de- velopment of the disease within two or three days following visits of soldiers from Camp Devens. The wave of the infection in Con- necticut was from east to west, reaching its peak in the eastern sec. tion about October 4, in the central area October 15, and in the ~weittes | district about October 24. These dai. {are based on the morbidity and mor- tality revorts from the —nrious coun- ties. The towns early initected by vis- itors from military establishments the climax sooner than sur- rounding towns. Influenza was made disease in New London Sept. 12, and for the entire state on Sept. 18, 1918, and active measures were adopted immediately by the state | department of health to warn the pub- lic, through the vre-s and by posters, of the serious nature of the spreading epidemic. The policy of keening schools and theatres open under certain restric- itions was advocated. Not all cities ! continued to observe the policy. but in those which did, namely, Bridgeport, | Hartferd and New Haven, the course of the epidemic was less explosive and more extended. thus permitting more individual medical attention and ra- jsulting in a_lower mortality rate. The ifollowing table hows the death rates | of Bridgeport, New Haven and Hart- ford in comparison with those of the cities most severely affected. It cov- |ers the period from Sept. 1 to Dec. 28, andl shows the number of deaths per thousand ponulation: Bridgeport 5.7, | New Haven 6.0, Hartford 7.0. Sevmour :!1 ., Willimantic 1 Naugatuck 9.2 | Waterbury 8.8, Meriden 8.4, New Brit- ain 7.9. During the epidemic 101 nurses and {48 physicians, secured jsources, were sent to |parts of the state. Thirty-five emer- gency hospitals were either establish- ed, supervised or assisted by the state department of health. About four thousand doses of in- fluenza vaccine were adminictered, mostly in institutions and factories, but a lack of renorts made it impos: ble to form any definite conclusions |regarding the efficacy of this form of i treatment. Charts and table which accompany the report cover the period from Sept 1 to Dec. 28, 1918, for the entire state, a reportable county on i | frem outside | the needie-t|years: a baby not born figu es for fifiy | . 2 3 deaths, with death rate, in l’ll‘llllv‘l"ll 00 population. ‘While these tables illustrate the course of the epidemic during its j{most violent period, they do not show jits full effects, for many thousands lof cases, resulting in upwards Jf two thousand deaths, occurred in this state during the first four months of the present vear. Many months must elapse beforej fully = authenticated death reports will enable the state de- partment of health to compilz com- “plete and accurate data of Connecti- ,cut's toll in the great pandemic. Showing the way the influenza and ‘prieumonia took its toll upon the vari- ous age periods are the following fig- ures of deaths: Under 1 year, 480; from 1 to 4 years, 810; from 5 to 9 years, 240; from 10 to 14 yeads, 220: from 15 to 19 yeads, 440; from 20 to ears, 950; from 25 to 29 yercs, 1600; from 30 to 39 years, 2230: "/ n 40 to 49 years, 710; from 50 to. 33 years, 350; from to 69 years, 219; from 70 years up, 180. { Comparison of the deaths from all causes from Sept. 1 to Dec. 28 in 1917 with the same period in 1918, which was while the influenza epidemic was raging show the total number of | deaths in this period of 1917 was 6003; in 1918, 14.057, an increase of 8M54. | The heaviest toll fell upon those ve- itween the ages of 20 and 40 vears. The totar deaths among this group in 1917 was 858; in 1918, 5.648. This vepre- Octaber total sents nearly 60 per cent. of all the deaths reculting from influenza and pneumonia. In the towns of this section of the state, the deaths from influenza and pneumonia and rate per 1000 popula- tion is given as follow: Norwich—September 39, 161: November 12, December 11; 223: rate 7.6.

The epidemic of influenza was a blasting thing, many times more de- vastating than the war. It was pro- jportionately as harmful to the popu- lation of Connecticut as any year of the war to any of the oeilizer- ents engaged.

The sum of the dead ghastly as it is in a human way. and devastating as it is in an econon- way, is negligible in_ the iime of 1 # state compared to the effent of | fluenza on our future birta rate. The great outstanding fac: of the epidemic is this: Despite the frightful toll of irfluen- za, the death rate for the vear 1917 was no higher than in the vesrs bef. the various gtates had established cial departments to saleguard public health. Tae 'HOW NEW YORK THIEVES GOT WINDHAM CO.’S SILK It is estimated that $15,000 worth of silks were stolen July 4th from the showrooms on the 1ith floor of 185 Madison: avenue, New York city. The silk belonged to the Windham Silk company of Willimantic. The police asked President Larabee and other officials of the company to say mnoth- ing of the case to the newspapers “because publication always hurts our case.” The break was executed in day- light in the heart of the city, where traflic passed continually during the robbery. A young elevator opera- tor was in his car while the thieves carried down roll after roll of silk, 11 flights to the street, and loaded them on an automobile truck backed up to the front entrance. - They had smash- ed in a panel of the office door in order to gain admittance to the show rooms. The thieves entered the place aboyt 2.30 and worked for an hour.. About that time people in the building be- came suspicious and summoned the police to find out whether it really was a_gang of burglars or _express men who carted away the Windham stock. The detectives ran stairs and tried every door right up to the tenth floor. and then quit. About 6 o'clock the night watchman making his_rounds discovered the door of the Windham office on the 1ith floor smashed in, and the stock room ransacked. Then the detectives came botfodt and told everybody to be sure and not say anything about how the thieves were allowed to get away a couple of hours before. HENRY GEBRATH MADE ! CITY SANITARY INSPECTOR D. J. Donovan, who has been sani- tary inspector under the city health department for the past year, has re- psigned = his position, and Dr. E. J. Brophy, health officer, has appointed Henry Gebrath to take the place. Mr. Donovan's health would not allow® him to_continue his duties.

IN $100 AND $1,000 SIZE ‘War savings certificates in denom nations of $100 and $1,000 will soon be available for sale in Connecticut, ac- cording to arnnouncement made by the Connecticut War Savings Committee. It is expected by war savings workers throughout the state that there will be a lively demand for these new cer- tificates as soon as their presence be- comes generally known. War savings stamps of the face value of $5 each are convertible into these new certificates, which bear the same rate of interest as the W. S. S., amounting to nearly four and one-half per cent. on stamps purchased during July. Widespread and continued sav- ings and investment in $5 W. S. S. has caused an insistant demand for the issuance of a government secur- ity which would combine the safety and profit of the W. §. S. with greater convenience for the purchaser of larger amounts, The new certificates have been issued in reponse to that demand, and also to provide a me- dium _for. investment of the funds of traternal organizations, labor unions, and other civic and social units which have signified their willingness to in- vest their moneys in government se- curities. The $100 certificates are convertible into -$1,000 certif >s. \ The §1,000 limit of investmer. .or each individ- ual will be continued. PLACES SILENT POLICEMAN AT NORWICH TOWN GREEN First Selectman Casper K. Bailey has had a silent policeman placed at the Norwich Town church corner at the northerly end of the green and hopes that this will check the Uabil- {1ty to accidents at this point. There have been frequent instances of bad accidents narrowly avoided at this corner. Automobiles coming from the north af high speed have shot out onto. the green when they found they could not negotiate the corner in any other way and machines from the outh have at times come near going own the well by the church or climbing Meeting House rocks when they unexpectedly met another car at the corner. Selectman Bailey will keep an eve on the results from the silent police- man, but if automobilists do not pay any attention to this ian of the way, he will place a live officer at the spot.

Before his death in 1917 the organization decided that benefits to be paid to members who joined be- fore 1904 were to be reduced to $554 because of state insurance department orders requiring the organization to increase the reserve fund set aside for the payment of benefits. Mrs. Kennedy tested the case, and Justice Page said the society could not require members who bad joined before 1904 to contribute to a fund for the benefit of persons who became members subsequently.
