something akin thereto, hastaken/hold in Nogales, on bothsides of the line, in such away

as to cause great alarm, whichhas aroused in the minds ofeverybody a feeling that drasticactiori is necessary to checkspread of the disease and com-pass its elimination.

So great has that feeling

grown that yesterday Mayor

Wirt G. Bowman Called a meet-ing of the Town Council and allthe medical men in the vicinity,

to confer upon the subject anddecided what measures may benecessary.

Realizing that whatever ac-tion was taken would be nulli-fied to some extent unless therecould be brought about with theauthorities of Nogales ,Sonora,

an understanding for a likecourse of action, Mayor Bowmanwisely invited Presidente Astof-fo R. Cardenas and the healthboard of Nogales, Sonora, to at-

tend the conference, which in-

vitation was accepted, and Mr.Cardenas appeared, attended by

Doctor Priego, federal and mu-nicipal sanitary officer in thattown, and Doctor Gutierrez, of

the state health service.At the appointed hour the

Town Council was called to or-

der by Mayor Bowman; andthere were present CouncilmenButler, Curtis, Dunbar, Harri-son, Ford, and Fiedler, withTown Clerk Frank Cole.

There were present DoctorsFitts and Davis, who reportedthat Doctor W. F. Chenoweth,Town and County Health Offi-cer, and Doctor Purdy are bothvery ill. Doctor Fitts statedthat Doctor Chenoweth is af-flicted with the “flu”himself.

Representing the militarycamp were Colonel E. Carnahan,Commandant of the militarysub-district, with Major Soperand Captain Colvell, both of themedical corps, U. S. A. MajorSoper is in command of the basehospital, while Captain Colvell isin charge of the hospital at thecamp of the 25th Infantry.

The discussion took a widerange, and there was developedmany different degrees of opin-ion; but all were agreed uponone proposition, which is thatquick and drastic action shouldbe taken, and that immediately.Presidente Cardenas stated thaton the Sonora side of the line ac-tion had been taken already.There closing all schools, placesof amusement and public gath-erings had been proclaimed.

After the subject had beendiscussed most thoroughly in allof its lights the council votedthat it would be advisable tosuspend all public gatherings at

. once. It was agreed that prop-erly such action should emanatefrom the County Board ofHealth; but with the head ofthe County and Town Boards,Doctor W. F. Chenoweth veryill, it was agreed that MayorBowman should issue a procla-mation closing until further no-tice all schools, churches, thea-tres, pool halls, or public gath-erings; and that later approval

; by Doctor Chenoweth be secur-ed.

So Mayor Bowman affixed hisofficial signature to the proc-lamation appearing above; and

¦ afterward, by telephone, Doc-, tor Chenoweth’s approval was

, secured, as appears at the end. of the proclamation.

So, beginning at 7 o’clock this

morning,- the order will take ef-fect, and until further notice allchurches, schools, theatres, poolhalls, and public gatherings ofwhatever nature, are suspend-ed.

In this connection it may notbe amiss to state that ProfessorMadden, Superintendent of theNogales Public Schools, will ar-range to carry out the HighSchool course throughout theperiod of suspension by a sys-tem of home study upon thepart of the pupils. The systemwill be to publish in The Oasisevery morning a general direc-tion of the studies to be pursuedduring the day, etc. Allthe de-

tails will be announced in thesecolumns.
