TYPHOID IMMUNIZATION
JUNEAU — The sudden out
break of typhoid fev’er in the Spc
nard suburb of Anchorage in
which 15 victims have been strick
en emphasizes the fact that this
disease is an ever present threat
in Alaska, Dr. C. Earl Albrecht,
commissioner of health, warned
residents of the Territory today.
“It points up vividly the fact
that we must bend every effort to
continued improvement in envi
ronmental sanitation,” he said. He
stressed the fact that food hand
ling practices, water supplies,
milk supplies and waste disposal
must not be permitted to transmit
typhoid fever.
Typhoid immunization is an ad
junct in the control of typhoid
fever and Alaska Department of
Health officials continue to urge
individuals to be immunized, Dr.
Albrecht stated.
The Pioneer Women of Alaska
met last Friday for their regular
monthly meeting and enjoyable
social.
This group will have a special
meeting before Memorial Day to
make artificial flowers which will
be used to decorate the graves of
all Pioneer Women on Belmont
Point.

the body's

and to the dar
ing and skill of
American sur
geons, many
once- hopeless
cancer cases are
being saved to
day.
In some hos
pitols, the entire pelvic viscera can be
removed to root out all of the seeds
of a wide-spread cancer. Patients
ore relieved of their pain and sent
back to their normal life—for comfort
able and useful months and years.
Progress has been mode, too, in
saving vital organs. High rates of cure
are being established in some institu
tions with a minimum of damage to
normal physical functions. A growing
number of ingenious prosthetic devices
have reduced fear of some mutilating
operations.
In many kinds of cancer, surgeons
and radiotherapists team up to do to
gether what neither alone can do for
a patient. They have found that pre
operative and post-operative radiation
may reduce mortality in several kinds
of cancer; after the surgeon has ex- I
cised all the cancer that can be reached
with a scalpel, the radiotherapist
sometimes can rub out remaining ma
lignant cells with x-rays. Surgical
progress, plus great educational em
phasis on early diagnosis, is saving
more lives each year. Support the 1950
Cancer Crusade of the American Can
cer Society. Strike Back: Give to Con
