ltto M-m Wh. Plalaa, N. V. Dr. Simon Flexner of the Rockefeller Institute, spoke before a special Infantile paralysis meeting held this afternoon at the Polhemus Clinic of the Long Island College Hospital.

Tho meeting was called by Dr. Simon Blat. tels, head of the special Brooklyn infantile paralysis work for Brooklyn Besides Health Department doctors, there were many practicing physicians present. Dr. Flexner has been studying infantile paralysis for the past five years and has succeeded in isolating the germ of the disease.

Dr. Flexner said: "The vlrfis of poliomyelitis or infantile paralysis exists in the secretions of the nose and throat (nasopharynx), and In the discharges from the Intestine i faeces). Hence the mode of spread may be as follows: Kissing. coughing, sneezing: which carry the secretions of the nose and throat from one person wljo may be Infected to other persons who may not be. "Since the disease attacks by preference young children and Infants whose nasal and buccal (mouth) secretions are wiped away by mother or nurse, the fingers of these persons readily become contaminated.

The care of other children by persons with contaminated fingers may, therefore, lead to the conveying of the Infectious micro-organism indirectly from the sick to tho healthy. "This danger also exists In connection with venders of food which Is eaten uncooked. The existence of cases of poliomyelitis in the homes of venders of food Is, therefore, a potential source of danger. "2. Since the discharges from the THE DAILY MILITARY REGISTER Station.
