MARCH, APRIL CASES
MEASLES DOUBLE OVER
LAST YEAR IS REPORT
A sudden rise in the incidence
of measles in Alaska drained the
Kealih department laboratory sup
ply of human immune globulin last
week but this is now replenished
with the arrival of 500 ampules of
the serum by air yesterday, Dr.
C. E. Albrecht, commissioner of
health, said today.
Though innoculation with the
serum ma-y not prevent an exposed
person from developing measles, it
was explained, the disease Is mod
ified by it.
The human immune globulin was
supplied free of charge to the
Health department by the Ameri
ca Red Cress at San Francisco and
s available to Alaska physicians.
Cases of measles reported to the
Health department for March and
Apiil numbered 185, which is almost
vwice the number of cases reported
; tor the territory in the same per
.od last year.
In the states, the number ol
measles cases by March 16 this
year had already doubled the num
ber reported by that date for the
previous yea^, according to Dr. Ross
T. Mclntire, chairman of the Red
Cross natoinal blood program med
ical committee. California, Texas
, Wisconsin and Pennsylvania were
reported as the hardest hit states.
The globulin is processed from
World War II surplus blood plasma
which is no longer usable for trans
fusions, Dr. Mclntire’s report ex
plained. Given soon after expo
sure to the disease, the serum min
imizes the danger of complication
such as bronchopneumonia and in
ner car infection. Since the dis
covery of the serum the measle
death rate among very young child
:en has been cut by more thai
half.

FIRE DEPT. MAKING
BEST OF AWKWARD
TEMPORARY HOME
Fire truck drivers Lars Sorenser
and George O'Brien are settled a.‘
comfortably as possible in the olt
one-cylinder fire hall at the en
trance to the subport. What is lack
ing in roominess is partly made
up by compact storage, cleanliness
md curtains.
There is room for only one fire
truck in the building, one bedroom
bath, a small kitchen and an extra
room too small for meetings but
large enough for feeds following
Tie meetings which will be held in
a classioom in the National Guarc
Building at the port. The regulai
May meeting will be held tonight.
Cld Betsey and another fire
truck, as well as the Elks ambul
ance are housed in the warehouse
about' three blocks away.
‘‘If there is delay in responding
to ambulance calls, it will be be
cause of the time it takes to sprint
those three blocks,” Sorenson said
‘And we don't sprint as fast as we
used to,” he added.
Sorensen explained that manj
ambulance calls could as well be
handled by a car or taxi, if those
at the scene wtfuld call a doctoi
iirst, except in obvious emergenej
cases.
Since the ambulance has been in
service it has responded to 45 calls.
Drivers get no compenstaion foi
making the calls and it takes two
persons to handle a call.
The members of the Department
who were housed in the hall in the
City Hall Building, are scattered in
various rooms in Juneau, but will
ce on the alert for any fire calls.
