Excerpt from Annual Report of the Surgeon General of the Public Health Service of the United States for the Fiscal Year 1924 There was very little difference in the number of cases of small 'ox for the two years, but there was a marked difference in the num er of fatal cases of this disease. In 1923, 45 States reported a total of cases of Smallpox with 160 deaths, while in 1922, 41 States reported cases of smallpox with 758 deaths. Severe out breaks of this disease were threatened during the fiscal year, but were prom tly controlled by isolation of cases and by vaccination, chie y by t e latter measure. The Public Health Service Cooperated with States and local authorities in this work. A review of the number of cases of smallpox reported during the last five years shows very much better conditions in the New England States than in the West and Middle West. Three States - Massachusetts, Michigan, and California - may be taken as somewhat typical of this situation and are easily comparable, inasmuch as the populations of these three States are almost the same. In Massachusetts, during the five years ending December 31, 1923, there were reported 114 cases of smallpox. In Michigan, during the same period, there were reported cases, while in California, during these five years, a total of cases of smallpox were reported.
