Speaker Sam Rayburn and Dem
ocratic John W. McCormack, D.,
Mass.
The letter was in reply to a re
quest by the house leaders to
make his position clearly under
stood as the house was about to
east a momentous vote on the
neutrality revision program.
Would Aid Axis
Referring to the senate leeisla
tion to repeal section 2 and 3 of
the neutrality act and thus permit
American merchant ships to go to
belligerent ports, the president
said:
"Failure to repeal these sec
tions would of Course cause re
joicing in the axis nations. Fail
ure would bolster apTessive stens
and intentions in Germany and
in the other well-known nggres
aor nations under the leadership
of Hitler.
Strike Issue Ivolved
"Such failure would weaken
our great effort to produce all we
possiblv can and as rapidly as we
can. Strikes and stoppages of
work would become less serious
in the mind of the public."
Mr. Roosevelt observed that the
house was acting on the eve of
crucial negotiations with the
United Mine Workers and the
steel companies over the issue of
continuing production in the cap
tive mines.
A few minutes after the presi
dent's letter arrived at the capitol,
McCormack announced that he
had received a similar appeal
from Secretary of State Cordell
Hull.
Hull informed McCormack that

Diphtheria Spread
Curbed in Courtly
No further spread of diphtheria
cases is reported by the county
health department and what may
have developed into a more se
rious widespread epidemic is now
aDparently under control through
the co-operation of the depart
ment and the local medical so
ciety. Nine cases were recently
reported in Coburg and vicinity.
Scattered cases may probably
break out and it is very important
that the health department obtain
the co-operation of the public, it
is pointed out in a statement is-
sued at the health offices. The
public can help by observing the
following:
1. See your doctor for any sus
picious case of sore throat, fever,
or stomach upset. He will prob
ably take a throat culture, which
is the only certain means of mak
ing an early diagnosis.
2. Observe rigidly the rules of
quarantine if they are imposed
on you. The quarantine is only
temporary; you will be released
as soon as it is safe, which will be
determined by two successive nega
tive throat cultures. A positive
culture may mean that you are a
"carrier" capable of transmitting
the disease without damage to
yourself.
3. Take your child to your doe
tor for immunization, which will,
In about six weeks to two months
help protect him. If for some rea
i son, this is not possible, you may
1 contact the Lane County Health
Department, by appointment, for
the same service.
"Diphtheria in children is se
rious and should not be regarded
lightly," -the statement adds.
"Your cooperation at this time is
highly solicited to prevent further
outbreaks and possible loss of
life." .
