LONDON, July 18. -"Europe's
greatest cholera epidemic is now rag
ing in its last stronghold, the
Ukraine, according to Dr. J. L. Mc
Elroy, who has been for the past year
district physician for the American
relief administration In the Ukraine.
Both the cholera epidemic and the
less terrible spotted typhus epidemic
have at present, however, become
more alarming in Odessa and the
Ukraine than they have ever been in
Russia, without excepting even the
Saratovr region, he told the United
Press. ' .
The continual inpouring of refu
gees from the Volga Into Odessa has
taxed the facilities of the relief ad
ministration to the fullest, according
to McElroy. -
"There are today 2.000 cases of
cholera in Odessa and fully' 500,000
cases in the Ukraine," Dr. McElroy
stated. The number of typhus cases
are approximately twice that number.
The present death rate of the cholera
victims is 60 per cent, with typhus
only about 10 per cent. -
"The Russian epidemic centers
have become very much quieter In the
past six months, thanks to the gov
ernment's mensures and its coopera
tlon with tho American relief organ'
Uatlons. We hope lo reduce the pro
nortlons of the epidemic to a much
lew alarming degree before the win
ter."
OOMPKR8 ISSUES WARNING ..,
WA8HINOTON, July 18. The
country is drifting into a state of
"irresponsibility" and the . situation
resulting from the railroad and. coal
strikes Is such as to cause "gravest
concern In every quarter." Samuel
Gompers, president of the American
Federation of Labor, declared today.
Gompers Issued an emphatic warn
ing against the use ot troops In the
coal strike, declaring that this is no
time for "rattling the saber or the
mailed list." and predicting failure
for the government's plan to take and
operate the mines.
He charged a close bond of sym
pathy between the government and
the employers, as evidenced by state
ments both have made.
E. F. Grable, head of the main
tenance of way union, announced ho
would not call a strike at this time.
CABINET DETERMINED
WASHINGTON, July 18. With
bituminous operators accepting Presi
dent Harding's arbitration proposal
in part and offering to put their
mines and services at the president's
disposal, Harding and his cabinet met
today, determined to force coal pro
duction regardless of the miners' re-"
f usal to arbitrate.
Federal troops may be need at
mines accepting the president's in
vitation to reopen.
