TUBERCULOSIS PREVALENT AND
CONDITIONS DEPLORABLE
SAYS RED CROSS NURSE
_ ^
The physical conditoin of the In
dlans in the Seward Peninsula and the
lower Yukon regions is deplorable
according to Miss Ebba Djupe, in
charge of the public health work in
Alaska for the Pacific Division, Am
erican Red Cross. Miss D.iupe passed
through Seward recently on her way
to her headquarters at San Francis
co, after spending the summer in the
north where she made an inspection
of health conditions of the residents
especially the Indians ,in the interest
of the Red Cross.
The Indians suffer chiefly from tu
berculosis and the majority of the vie
tims with whom she came in contact
are in a serious state of health, sht
said. Their manner of living, in try
ing to adopt the white man’s ways
is conducive to the desease and pre
sents a big problem to be overcome
A wide program of education in hy
giene is necessary to restore them to
even ftie first step toward good
health.
Miss Djupe will make her report to
headquarters immediately after her
arrival at San Francisco, when the
health program will be announced.
While she spent most of her time
looking into the health conditions of
the Indians, Miss Djupe also made in
spection of the white children where
she visited, carrying out the same pro
gram as it is held in the schools in
this district.
Miss Djupe spent some time in Nome
and that vicinity and came south from
there to St. Michael, thence up the
Yukon river to Tanana and to Nenana
from whence she came to the coast
by way of the Alaska railroad.
She is intensely interested in the
possibilities for the Red Cross work
in the interior and expects to return
to Alaska within a short time to car
ry on the health program in the in
terior district.
The condition of the Indians in the
north has been recognized by the gov
ernment of Alaska and with regard to
the investigations which have been
made by the American Red Cross at
the expense of the Jane Delano fund,
it was recommended that a govern
ment vessel with a doctor and dentist
'aboard be ordered to visit the towns
and settlements from Kodiak west
ward, to administer the sick, in Sen
ate Joint Memorial, No. 11, adopted
at the last session of the Territorial
legislature.

MOLASSES HAS NED USES
SINCE HAWAII WENT DRY
HONOLULU, September 19—New
uses which have been found for molas
ses, mainly a waste product of the Ha
waii sugar plantations since the enact
ment of the prohibition act, are expec
ted to exhaust the supply this year, ac
cording to an announcement made by
the Sugar Factors, which handle most
of the Hawaiian crop.
Prior to prohibition, the plantations
| derived a considerable income from
the molasses shipments to the main
land which were used for the manu
facture of alcohol. Since then the mo
lasses, which has a sugar content of
one fifth, has been used as fuel or
mam
■WM
thrown into the ocean.
A discovery that molasses may be
used as a culture medium in the pro
duction of yeast, has created a con
siderable demand recently. It also has
been found that molasses makes a
valuable feed for stock, as it is said,
it has about twice the energy value
of any other feed tested. These two
developments are expected to utilize
most of the molasses produced by the
plantations.
The new demand is expected to add }
approximately $1,000,000 to the in
come of the Hawaiian plantations this
year.
