DISEASE INCIDENCE A notable decline in the prevalence of poliomyelitis and .infectious hepatitis in Illinois during 1955, as compared with 1954, is shown in a report issued last weerk by the state Department of Public Health. Polio declined by about one-third, from 2,212 cases in 1954 to 1,402 last year. Dr. Roland R. Cross, public health director, attributed part of the polio decrease to a natural decline in incidence, and part to the single dose of polio vaccine given .to first and second grade Illinois 'school children in the spring of 1955. Last year's re-1 cord-breaking low incidence of typhoid fever, at 33 cases for the state, compares with 0 47 for 1955. Likewise, syphilis continued to decline, dropping to an alltime low of 4,307 reported cases" in 1955. There were 5,117 cases during the previous year. Classified Ads bring results.
