Multnomah, to Go Through Same
o Process Dr. Fairish Says
Disease Is Checked
Discovery of one case of smallpox
in Washington high school yesterday
resulted in the closing of the school
for one day, during which time all
rooms were fumigated by officials of
the health bureau. The Bchool will
re-open this morning.
City . Health Officer Farrish in
formed students attending the school
that it would be necessary for all of
them to submit to vaccination If they
desired to return to school within
21 days. This announcement resulted
in a rush at the city health bureau's
offices in the city hall, where during
the afternoon more than 100 pupils of
the school were vaccinated.
The ' spread of smallpox has been
cheeked, according to City Health
Officer Parrish. At the present time
251 cases of the disease are reported
to the health bureau. About 30 of
these cases are confined in the-conta-gious
hospital at Kelly Butte, and the
remainder are in private homes.
The new vaccination ruling, under
which the city health authorities re
quire all contacts to the disease to
submit to vaccination, is credited by
City Health Officer Parrish for the
success in combating the disease.
County officials yesterday closed
the Multnomah school at Multnomah
station because of the presence of
scarlet fever. This school will be re
opened as soon as it has been fumigated.
