b. The influence of overcrowding. The factor which iɛpreUSTE ene as being of greatest importance in the dissemination of the

disease in the Colony is the extensive overcrowding. The bases upon which this conclusion resta are:

1. The meteorological conditions.

2. The relative insidence of the disease in crowded and

in uncrowded districts.

3. The lack of relationship between the number of carriers

and the spread of the disease.

. The bacteriological evidence obtained from the patients.

It has been demonstrated that the geteorological factors

have an important relationship to the dissemination of epidemio

meningitis. Cold weather especially in the absence of sunlight

resulted in an increase in the number of cases. Un the other

hand, the meningoooqqus is ............. "a fragile mioro-organá am and

does not long withstand ordinary air temperatures and the

drying of the secretions containing then; onca separated from

nasopharynx, it soon succumbe in external nature". But when the

cold weather appears the population, already overcrowded abander

the habit of sleeping out in the open streets and literally

swar in the aubicles. These aubicles are box-like compartments,

completely shut in cold nights, unventilated and overorowded.

Should one innate harbour the meningococous it will soon

be distributed over all the others of the dwelling. The mechan-

ism of dissemination is more or less direct; it ............ consista

in the ejection of the nasopharyngeal secretions into the

surrounding atmospuere. This ejection does not take place
