Medical science baa designed the weapons, the government has pro vided financial aid for arming the fighters with these ammunitions of war. The battle now moves into the 4» states and 18,000 cities, towns and villages. What part wilt they take in the fight? The American people will provide the answer to chat question. Our government will and can do only what the public asks and sup ports. That is the very essence of democracy and none of us would have it otherwise. The responsibility then is ours. How can we best dis charge our obligations as citizens with a stake in the health and wetl-ibeing of our country? PAGE SEVEN asked, “What can we do to help stamp out syphilis?” Here is the answer to that question. It can be anawered in our coun- ty as it has been in many other counties by the organizing of a full The time County Health Unit. Health Officer conducts a venereal disease clinic for the treatment of the indigent and insists that they continue treatment until non-infec- tious. Spreaders of venereal' dis eases are traced and- required to go to a private physiciian for treat ment, or if unable to pay, to the health department clinic. ---------- o ment compensation law by the 40th legislative assembly was the provis ion to compute an individual's week ly benefit amount as an amount equal to one-twentieth of his total wages in subject employment dur ing that quarter of his base year in which such total wages were highest. The commission pointed out, how ever, that the law provides a $15 maximum and a $7 minimum weekly benefit amount for total unemploy ment. An individual shall be deemed “unemployed” in any week during which he performs no services and with respect to which no wages are payable to him, or in any week of less than full-time work if the wages payable to him with respect to such week are less than his week ly benefit amount.

First: It Kill. and Disables— Syphilis is a serious and preval ent communicable disease, an every day health problem to the indivi dual, his town, and to that largest oommunity, our own United States. If it is not treated, or is inadequate ly treated, it kill's or disables a very large number of people. Among those whom it kills are thousands of babies, who are born dead or do not long survive aftei birth. Fifteen per cent of all our blind are among those whom it dis ables. It is the cause of 10 per cent of insanity. It is responsible for a large proportion of diseases of heart and blood vessels, for many apoplectic and parlytic stroke« diseases of the“ nervous system such as locomotor ataxia, and num erous other serious conditians. It strikes most viciously at youth, three-quarters of all infections be- ing acquired between 16 and 30 years of age. It decreases earning capacity and length of life. And finally, we all pay directly in dollars for this terrific waste of human material by taxation to sup port institutions for the blind, th» insane and crippled, and to aid syphilitic indigents.
