THE EPIDEMIC.
NO MANAWATU CASES. ONE PATIENT DISCHARGED. 'There have been no fresh eases of infantile paralysis in the Palmerston North Hospital district during the past twenty-four hours. One patient, a little girl, was discharged completely cured. There have been no further responses to the appeal for serum blood, and the condition of the patients at present in the hospital is reported as satisfactory. DISEASE NOT RESULT OE BAD HOUSING. ••I Jo not want it to be thought that the infantile paralysis epidemic is in any way the result of bad housing conditions,” said the Hon. A D. McLeod at Napier. He pointed out that when Cabinet was discussing the epidemic, figures were produced to show that the distribution of infantile paralysis eases was very even. As many victims came from the homes of the wealthy as from the homes of the workers.
