Spread of Infection from Pilgrim Centres.



THE pilgrim committee which was appointed lately by the Government of Bombay have submitted their report on the effect of the general population. "The chief disease on whose dissemination pilgrims play an important part are," they write, "tuberculosis, malaria, smallpox, plague and the group associated with alimentary disorders of which cholera is a prominent type." Surely we do not require a special committee to impress this known fact on the minds of the public, much less on the Government. The Government reviews will show that Sir Louis Dane has reiterated these remarks with reference to the menace which Hardwar is to be public health in the Punjab.
