Abstract
AT THE BEGINNING OF THIS year reports on the outbreak of a disastrous disease in Upper Silesia . . . increased in frequency and urgency. . . . [W]hen the press published increasingly horrible details on this so-called hunger-typhus . . . and when finally even the Ministry of the Interior was forced to emerge from the apathy with which it had so far met the demands of the civil authorities, the Minister of Education finally ordered . . . Dr. Barez “to travel to Upper Silesia so as to obtain detailed information regarding the outbreak of the typhus epidemic, and the measures taken against it, and to assist the authorities concerned in word and deed whenever necessary.” On the 18th of February the writer of this report was also commissioned by the Minister of Education to visit the area ravaged by typhus.
