THEY FIGHT THE DREAD TSETSE FLY

Paris, Nov. 12.

In the steaming tropical forests of France's African em- pire, obscure heroic Arrow- smiths are fighting-and win- ning-the battle against this most dreaded scourge of that region, sleeping sickness.

In stretches of country as large as France where five years- ago 80 per cent, of the Blacks were affected by the disease, it has been practically stamped out. In most regions of Cameroun and French Equa- torial African where the number of cases was 60 to every 100 inhabitants in 1935, the propor-. tion has now been reduced to 10 per hundred.

Some areas which had been abandoned by man and beast alike have again been mado habitable by destruction of the breeding place of the teatso flies that carry the dreaded trypanosome.

Not only does the colonial doctor who risks his life to penetrate the jungles of the Congo have to seek out his patients in small tribes hidden in almost impenetrable forests, but after he finds them he must convince them to treatment.

-Pasteur-Institute's Work.

There are two centres for the' French medical. profession's war against sleeping sickness in its African possessions-Ayes, in the Cameroun, and the Pasteur stitute at Brazzaville, in the Congo.

From these centres are dis- patched two groups of sanitary outfits, following one another at an interval of a month, first the treatment group, then the follow- up group.

Mission number one visits ench native village in turn, tests each native for the disense, administers a first injection, usually of atoxyl, to those found-to-be suffering from- sleeping sickness, and leaves with the patients clinical cards giving the date of the injection, and the atrength and amount of the dose.. One month later the second mission arrives, and proceeds to regular injections until cures are complete.
