They Knew When They Had Enough Sanitation Is A
Public Safeguard
AUSTIN, Tex.—"Environmental
sanitation is the public health
term for clean, safe housekeeping
whether it applies to a private
home and its surroundings or to
towns and cities. Among other
things, it insures safe drinking
water, proper garbage and sew-
age disposal, the safe service of
wholesome food including milk,
rat and insect control, and gen-
eral cleanliness of the premises.
However, for environmental sani-
tation to l>e effective, it is es-
sential that not only public health
officials but the citizens living in
their respective homes or operat-
ing establishments serving the
public cooperate wholeheartedly
with the local anitation policy,"
declared l)r. («eo. W. Cox. State
Health Officer.
"Consider, for example, the sea-
sonal housefly hazard. It has been
determined that 120 eggs are laid
by a single female at one time
and that a generation is produced
every ten days at summer tem-
perature. Thus, the possibility of
eproduction during the warm

These sons of the Rising Sun had enough of the war. Coming out
of hiding in the rocks and bushes of Kermma Kctto when that island
was taken by the Americans, they signaled a navy LOVI' picket boat
offshore. Obviously far from destitute, they looked healthy and carried
money, razors, diaries, tooth brushes, photographs and clothing over
their heads.
months of a single fly runs into
many millions. While the house-
fly docs not bite, it is dangerous
because it breeds ami feeds upon
both filth anil food.
"Again, rats are the source of
several diseases of man including
plague, typhus fever, infectious
jaundice, and trichinosis, to men-
tion some of the more important
ones. Homes can be made com-
paratively ratproof by removing
rubbish and garbage accumula-
tions, and by closing avenues of
access. Approved poisons and
traps should be employed when a
real problem presents itself.
"Removal of containers of stag-j
nant water such us tin cans and
barrels will do much to eliminate
the mospito for householders. The
householder needs to devote more
seasonal attention to mosquito
eradication than he is today if
this is to be propei ly controlled.
"In general, good and thorough
! housekeeping, inside and out, is
the personal and civic duty of ev-
' ery home dweller. It not only adds
Ito the pleasure of living and re-
moves disease hazards, but in-
creases the appearance of one's
surroundings."

A New "House of Magic"
for Postwar America
"...one of the strongest guarantees of progress and
world peace is continuous scientific preparedness
through industrial research."
"General Electric has approved
plans for a new §8,000,000
Research Laboratory. This ex-
penditure has tremendous significance.
Scientific research has contributed much
to our progress as a nation.
"Many things have been discovered
during this war, and we can and must
develop them into better things for
peacetime.
"Today we have 550 research jx>ople
on our staff. These new facilities will
not only give increased outlet for their
abilities, but will provide opportunities
for new research minds with new talents.
"From this new laboratory we think
new achievements will come. In the past,
G-E research has contributed much to
better living in America not only
through new developments in x-ray,
electricity, metallurgy, electronics and
chemistry, hut also through reduced coat
and increased efficiency, as in the
modern incandescent lamp.
"Kven more than in the past the In-
boratory will emphasize research in pure
science continuing and expanding the
work begun by Dr Whitney and the late
J)r. Steinmetz forty-five years ago.
"To find new facts of the physical
world, to extend the limits of knowledge,
is a forward step in creating More
Goods for More People at Cost."
