“ Ottawa,. March 30 (Special to ‘The

is the passage of a germ from one pei: + °

with sufferers, according to a ‘state-
ment ‘made public by: the Public.
Health. Service,

In the statements which Was issued a
it says; “We do not yet know ‘exnetly ‘
what | causes. epidemic influenza, but ..
we are. at least sure that it is not due. .
as our forefathers used to suppose, to. _

to -polsonous gases emited from ‘the
stars. There is every ‘reason. for 'be-:
Heving that influenza- dg a typical ‘In-;

There is no evidence ‘that the germ, ao
is ever conveyed by drinking water or’ ~
‘milk, or that it can be blown about in’ a
dust for a-period of time. Neither ie og
there any. evidence that biting | insectr: :

as horses, suffer from disenses some-
times termed influenza these diseases... -
are caused by different microbes and
have nothing to dowith the human in-
fection. .

All that is known dbout human in-
fluenze supports the view that the
germ is passed more or leas directly
from one human belig to another.
Probably this is the only- made. of
