PHYSICIAN AND HEALTH BOARD , FAIL TO AGREE BONE OF CONTENTION QUARANTINE LAW MAYOR STANDS FIRM Itelleven. Patients Should .Not Ite Held After Danger of ('onlagloii Is I'ltht -Knforce Law to letter, Kays Dr. Fin ley. Difficulties arising between the members of the health committee of the city council and Dr. Anna Ries Finley over the section of the law relating to the quarantining of smallpox cases, will call for a show down at the regular meeting of the council tomorrow night, Dr. Flnler declare. And if the city physician desires a showdown, that is Just ex actly what she shall have. Mayor J. A. Eastes replies. If she is permitt ed to enforce the law to the letter, without Interference, she will re main in office, Dr. Finley states, otherwise she will resign. A resig nation. Mayor Eastes says, he would be willing to accept, although he is disappointed that the ideal relations hitherto existing between the coun cil and the health officer, have been so rudely shattered. Trouble started Monday afternoon at .a meeting attended by Dr. Fin ley, Mayor Eastes, and two of the members of the health committee, E. L. Payne,' chairman, and D. O. McPherson. at which the question of enforcement of the smallpox quar antine when danger of contagion has passed, was brought up. The cases of F. A. Howard 'and Bert Vheejon, were mentioned particularly as in stances in point where members ot the council believed that the physi cian would be Justified in taking down the yejlow card and ordering iiisagree on ljiv. 1 Dr. Finley stood pat on the letter of tho law, which specifies three weeks, and Mayor Eastes urged that I. l b9 ,nlerPre,e(1 to flt individual cases. Dr. Finley refused pome blank, but later in the day, accom panied by Chairman Payne, visited not only the Howard and Wheelon homes but some eight or nine more where the time of quarantine had not yet elapsed, releasing all patients at these places. The health officer nsists that three weeks is not a long time to be quarantined, pointing out that the city of Seattle enforces a six weeks' law. Mayor Eastes declares just as firmly that one day is too long it the patient is no longer a disseminator of contagion. But was it really smallpox? That Is' another question which the coun cil may have to answer tomorrow nlgtft. Mr. Wheelon, one of the patients released this week, was vaccinated just before being re leased, and tomorrow" he intends to appear before the council, exhibit his arm, and show tire councilmen that the vaccine virus is actually "taking." Mr. Wheelon can't see how he could have a successful vaccination just after recovering from smallpox, and suggests that his complaint may only have been chickenpox, after all.
