RECOVERY OF I IAN CASES IS RESULT OF STRICT RULES One of the most immediate results of the observation of strict measures pertaining to influenza, is the start ling number of coses reported as bav ins; "recovered" since . institution of strict quarantine, Saturday. City Health Officer Dr. R. E. Pomsroy, Monday, was besieged with phone calls fsom physician who reported that many of their influents patients had fully recovered from the flu. Over 58 cases are now recorded as having: fully emerged from the baneful effects of the disease. All of the 40 cases now under qoar- artine in Salem have been placed un der the measures Instituted Sa uruny b tbe police committee. Ths new ban on the disease Is as strlnget as quar- ... .u a cs of sari t fever or smallpox and the authorities request that all violations of these rules be re- ,or ed. Physicians are required to report all cases of Influenza, to 'he city health authorities I has been report'' that certain physicians have circulated statements that Dr. Pomeroy was not enf -re n- quara ine. Now that the city health officer has been given full authorty to enforce quarantine provisions, these same phy sicians, if there are any, are in turn put up against it to comply with the law by reporting all diseases. While the source of the rumors in question has not been determined. Dr. Pomeroy has denied that he has ever failed to enforce quarantine where reported. In many cases, however, the physi cian's report is delayed many horns. In other instances, the deputy to the city health officer has often had a number of cases in widely separated sections of the city, rendering a delay in quarantine necessary. The city health officer points out that these de lays do not point to lack of enforce ment. While many physicians agree w;!!i Dr. Pomeroy that the present strin gent measures may work a temporary hardship upon those affected, vet the city officials feel that the source of wiae-spread rumors of careless en forcement of influenza measure in Sa lem, will be run to the ground. With only two deaths attributed to Influen za, Salem ia regarded to have been urn flu season this year, as compared to other cities in the iisie. On the other hand, authorities urge complete Isloation and thorough caj-e of actual case of tho disease in order to prevent a widespread epidemic. Up to uoon, Monday, only 13 new cases had bevn reported, covering thj period, from Saturday evening to Mon day midday. AU of theee cases are re ported as being very light.
