CHAMBER DOES
A GREAT WORK
In Giving Information on Question
of Malaria at
. , uunway
. , LETTER OF FILBY
QUOTED FROM
Wot Limited to Prevention of
Mosquito Production in PreI
venting Malaria
The Conway Chamber of Commerce
tooK up the subject of malaria
in this section and its efforts resulted
in giving out much information
thereon, and effective woik
done.
Tho conditions relative to malaria
at Conway were carcfully investigated
by Mr. E. L. Filby, State Sanitary
Engineer, and a full report has
been made by him and his associate,
Capt. L. M. Fisher.
t From a letter dated August 12th
: from the Engineer's office addi\ s ed
to the Secretary of the Chomber
we learn that it is extremely problematical
that mosquito production
can be prventrd here owing to ih:
swamps along the river which arc.
usually flooded during the month.;
from May to October.
The latter shows, however, that
we are not limit.-d t> the prevc.nfi\>n
of mosquito production in controlling
malaria. ThP methods suggest
ed to be instituted against Malaria
in Conway are briefly outlined as
follows:
1. Educational me.thods.
2. SCreehinjjk n'f all bsd rooms in
the town. f
8. Inducing people to sleep under
mosquito bars (bed nets.)
*?. v^<* iti 1111 muni|uibvun in uturooms
if they enter in spite of
screening precautions.
5. Examination by micnvscopist
of blood of population for presence
of malaria parasites. (
(5. Systematic ti'eatment of positive
cases with quinine supplic.1
without cost for a period sufficiently
long to effect positive cure.
7. Small amount of drainage
work to destroy breeding1 placeclose
to the town.
To accomplish this there should
be provided a full time health officer,
a miscroscopist for about two
months during the. summer and a
citizcns committee whose functions
shouM bo to coope.rate with the
health officer.
A competent health officer could
probably be obtained for $2400.00 a
year. The expense of screening,
quinine administration, etc., would
Srobably cost $3,000.00 or more,
rainage work would probably cost
not less than $2500.00. Oiling
about $500.00. In addition to this
there would probably be some minor
expenses.
It is believed that a microscopist
could be obtained without cost to
the town and supervision of the
work if it is decided to undertake
f.uch work at Conway, will probably
be supplied by the U. S. Public
Health Service.
While Conway is not so fortunately
situated from the standpoint
of malaria control as some towns
in the portion of the state* where
malaria is a serious factor, nevertheless
a very great deal of good
can be accomplished if a program
is adopted somewhat along the* lines
Indicated in this report, and the
money so spent would undoubtedly
bivng high returns.
:f the town authorites will obligate
themselves to moke available
about six thousand dollars off the
fir.-t y<nr, or as much thereof a*
may be required, and engage to
maintain the work in the future.,
the matter of obtaining additional
funds to supplement this amount
"v'll bp taken ur> with the proper
authorities. It appears probable
that a certain number of towns will
be selected this year in which to do
malaria control work under a cooperative
program between the State
Hoard of Health, the Internationa!
Health Board, tW IJnitg.d St"to^
Public Health SqyyicQ, arid th^
Town Authorities. Several to'svn*
have already made ppnlicatioft fbv
the benefit of i^Vis cooperative'rir-'
ranjrenunt. Ti,': rV"\v:)y desires td
profit i*\* this scheme, and to undertake'
t'-r vx-ovk along the lines out*
iin'-?t i'.h"ve. we will be fflad to hear
furt'-cr from you.

| CONWAY CHAMBER
! IS WIDE AWAKE
j Looking After the I\leed3 of
To':acco Interests This
Season
I
ADD TIONAL CARS ARE
SECURED BY EFFORTS
I ?
Additional Storage Rooms i
i
Were- Supplied at Their
Request
?
There was an article in this paper
recently, regarding the crowd el condition
of tobacco warehouses at Con-'
way, and stressing the need of i
prize houses and additional room of!
some kind, in which to handle Che
crop.
Some portions of the article may
have given the impression that The
Chamber of Commerce had failed to
do very much in relieving the condftions
which prevailed last year, j
The Herald has seen a large batch i
of correspondence and copies of j
telegrams anl letters, -which prove, i
I beyond any doubt, that tho Conway j
Chamber of Commerce, by means
of its prompt handling* of this proposition,
procured cars to be sent to
Conway in August, and which took
care of what otherwise would have
been a serious condition for farmers, j
This correspondence shows that
the efforts of the Chamber had
effect and that additional cars were I
s .nt here as a result of their ef-1
forts.
It is also beyond doubt, that The j
Chamber of Commerce succeeded in
securing: much additional floor space
for the use. of tobacco buyers ii!
the county, and shipping of the to-1
bacco purchased. As a result of
| their efforts, the company was part- !
| i%> \/i ^aiu/iU\i in tii^ UTr^niiuu^ "i tir ,
spring to build a costly prize house;;
i but in the end this could nof b;> |
j done, owing to the lack trr materials, i
shortage of labor, and the ' evident1
I impossibility rf completing the build
ing in time to do any good. Then |
the "Chamber turned its e^fo:ts to |
securing buildings already up. The j
old warehouse of Mr. Thompson i
has been usc,d* the old garage build-j
ing of Conway Motor Company was j
offered, and we suppose used, while
, Mr. G. B. Jonkins offered floor
! space for the same purpose.
| The Herald wishes to sav, that;
! this paper is sure that The Chamber]
of Commerce is thoroughly on the>
job; and that thov have not only
d^ne all that could be done this
-eas^n. but will continue thoir ef#

The official count when made may

change that will be material, unless
it be in regard to the vote cast for
State Senator, which was very close
as shown.
Thpv^ \yas n?t much interest
shqwn in the Stt > candidates thi*
I time, probably ; . much as thero
| was in regard to the vote for Unitrd
I States Senator. Elsewhere the
Herald publishes tht> latest report
from Columbia on the State vote anil
for United States Senator.
The votes, as they came in last
Tuesday night, were tabu'at^d on a
| board in front of the Norton Drug
(Company. Theiv was a large cr< wd
congregated about this board until a
| late hour.
