The biggest difficulty in eep1ig
American troops in the Pacific free
from disease was to prevent tem
from eating native food and drink-
ing impure water, according to
Dr. Ralph Sullivan of the School of
Public Health, former chief of pre-
ventative medicine with the Eighth
Army.
This presented a serious problem -
in the Philippines, Dr. Sullivan said.,
because it is hard to refuse the gen-
erous hospitality of the Filipinos
without offending them.
"Often it was necessary to provide
sanitation facilities for an entire vil-
lage in order to secure the health of
our soldiers," Dr. Sullivan said. "San-
itary conditions on the Pacific Is-
lands are very primitive and some-
times the habits of centuries had to
be overcome before the area was con-
sidered safe for American occupa-
tion."
The usual procedure in the Philip-
SOIC To Hold.
Meeting Today
The procedure to be followed in the

agenda of the SOIC Executive Couri-
cil meeting at 4:15 p.m. today in the
Union, Jack Gore, chairman, an-
nounced yesterday.
Other topics to be considered in-
clude the petition of the Student
Book Exchange for membership on
the Council, a financial report, and
a summary of plans for the joint
SOIC-WSSF fund raising project.
All interested persons are invited
to attend, and it is urged that Coun-
cil members be present.
