Carriers of Disease
V.TLere is an old saying, ‘after war comes famine, and after famine pestilence,’ ” said Dr G. J. Adams, opening his mayoral campaign in the Wanganui Opera House. “I am not going to suggest that we are likely to be faced with a famine in New Zealand, but I suggest that we may have pestilences. Apart from the activities of the Health Department, i',t behoves every municipality to do its utmost to prevent pestilences to the maximum of its ability. We would have in our midst at present three pestilences which may prove serious, and which demand thought and immediate action. They are rats, flies, and fleas, all of which are recognised carriers of disease.”
