said,
and
placed
under
a
moderate
quarantine.
This
was
not
entirely
the
solution,
he
said.
There
had
been
18
cases
of
typhoid
discovered
this
year
up
to
this
week
and
further
checks
would
probably
disclose
more
carriers.
The
Department
of
Indian
Affairs
was
trying
to
Increase
its
immunization
program,
he
said,
and
most
of
the
water
supply
for
the
native
vil
lages
had
been
put
in
shape
with
the
exception
of
Port
Simpson.
There
was
no
danger
of
a
large-scale
epidemic.
Regarding
polio
In
the
Skeena
District,
Dr.
Carr
said
the
area
had
been
extremely
fortunate,
only
two
cases
having
been
reported
during
the
year.
He
said
he
had
no
explanation
of
why
this
district
should
get
off
so
lightly
when
southern
and
eastern
B.C.
areas
had
been
hit
so
heavily.
The
Skeena
