Carry the only exclusive line of Men’s Wearing
Apparel in Tillamook County.
In the larger cities of this country
the street car is as potent a factor in
the dissemination of communicable
diseases as many of those usually cata
logued in the standard works of hy
giene. In these larger centers of popu
lation the condition is one of an ex
cessive number of passengers crowded
into a limited number of cars. In some
cities this continues throughout the
entire day. and in all of them during
the morning and evening hours. Dur
ing the period of congested traffic, the
cars are crowded to the limit, every
seat being occupied, and the aisles and
rear platforms literally packed with
all classes of our variegated popula
tion, says the Interstate Medical Jour
nal.
The ventilation of these cars is in
ferior, both on account of inattention
to this important matter on the part
of the builders of this class of rolling
stock, and. also because the passengers
differ so widely as to the proper tem
perature and circulation necessary
to their comfort.
Tuberculosis is undoubtedly propa
gated through the medium of these
cars, which become infected by the
promiscuous expectoration indulged
in by consumptives, notwithstanding
notices of warning. Hannum. of Cleve
land. recently examined 25 specimens
of sputum found in street cars (15
from the interiors and ten from the
rear platforms): the tubercle bacillus
was present in three instances. Other
specimens showed the pneumococcus
and the bacillus influenzae.
These conditions, the person-to-per
son contract, and the breathing of
vitiated air frequently laden with
contagious exhalations and with dust
from dried snutum. are most favora
ble to the distribution of contagious
diseases. Of course, it is only prob
lematical as to the number of small
pox cases which were infected
through these conditions during the
recent epidemic, but it is certain that
but few better opportunities of in
fection are offered than through the
street-car contact of all classes.
Other transmissible diseases can
very easily be, and no doubt are, com
municated in the same way.
The solution of this problem is not
easy. Street railway companies are
not inclined to relieve the present
situation without compulsion. Health
I
officers, however, have authority over
the sanitation of these public con
veyances. This authority in most
municipalities gives sufficient power
to prevent undue overcrowding of
l!
cars when such prevention world be
for the protection of public health
When nece sary. as in times of a
general epidemic, such authority
should be exorcised. Under all ci-- f
ciimstances regular disinfection of
street cars should be practiced in an
efficient manner. In thi* way the
cars can be made biologies 11 v clean
and the health of the community bet-
ler protected. There is just as much
occasion for this procedure as t’ e e
is for the disinfection of Pullman
cars, now energe;ieallv practiced at
