ENDEMIC MALARIA IN THE PHILIPPINE ISLANDS 

 AS A MILITARY PROBLEM 



By Professor F. G. Haughwout 



Professor Haughwout's paper dealt mainly with the problem 

 of latent malaria and "malarial carriers" as likely to manifest 

 themselves in the assembling of large bodies of men recruited 

 from endemic centers of malaria. He outlined and discussed 

 some of the methods that have been employed in the detection 

 of latent malaria. The paper also discussed the matter of 

 "quinine-fast" parasites, and recent work on the treatment of 

 malaria by the use of the Roentgen rays. — F. G. H.
