ANOTHER "AMERICAN IN MEXICO," WHAT HE DID THERE, AND WHAT IT MEANS
Fridav, March 24, 1916.
(BY H. D. S.,
DR CARLOS HUSK, who died of typhus contracted
in Mexico, is spoken of as a martyr to science, to
human service, and to his profession. And so
he is, though in a somewhat different sense from the
common understanding of the word "martyr," which
generally carries the idea of persecution or torture as
punishment for refusal to renunciate a belief, a convic-'
(ion, or a principle. Some "martyrs" in history willingly
went to death, invited it, as if to prove a case, or the
righteousness of a cause; "martyrs" of old often be
lieved that in their very death they might serve human
kind better than in life, if only to emphasize an abuse
or a great wrong and direct attention to its correction
or eradication. It did not need Dr. Husk's death to
prove that typhus was deadly.
His martyrdom ig in the nature of absolutely un
selfish devotion to human service without the least
hope of material reward commensurate with his self
sacrifice; and also in his having made himself the
subject of a conclusive test of the value of a preventive
serum which he had helped to develop and in which he
believed. His death proves the necessity of developing
i he serum further before it can be deemed a complete
immunizes It is to be hoped .that he left behind him
lull records of his studies, observations, and conclusions,
else his death would be only another of the great mys
teries seemingly without the slightest Justification.
Under normal circumstances Dr. Husk would have
lived 30 or 40 years longer. He was perfectly healthy,
strong of body and vigorous in mind and spirit. lie
was financially independent; he had achieved distinction
in his profession, and occupied a high position which
gave him unusual opportunities to develop professionally
as well as to gain and enjoy the fame he might deserve
for his skill, his energetic pursuit of knowledge, and
his contributions to human welfare and to science.
Many a man so situated would have become a con
sultant, a student, an author, a laboratory experimenter
perhaps, possibly a world traveler, dun man, and all
around good liver. Dr. Husk went to the worst plague
spot in Mexico where typhus was raging among the
lowliest, and there he worked among the huts of squalid
poverty, bringing hope and strength and life to outcasts
who had been all but abandoned by the rest of the
world.
He had been working with others to develop an
immunizing serum against typhus. Dr. Husk had taken
the full course of treatment, and believed himself to
be safe. It is not known yet just what his course may
have been in the plague stricken community. It has
not been told whether he took every precaution that
any other well informed physician would have taken
against infection, or whether, on the other hand, he
declined to take the ordinary precautions, relied ex
clusively on the immunizing treatment, and gave the
serum the desperately fair test of leaving it to work
singly and alone for his own protection, without com
plications that might spsil the experiment. From what
one knows of his type of man, one instinctively con
cludes that Dr. Husk chose the harder way, the more
dangerous way, the desperate way, and made the test a
perfect one by exposing himself to the utmost extent
under the conditions of greatest risk.
He "lost his life" as men say, but did he lose
the game? He must have used his time down there
in countless ways not merely for the immediate relief
cf sufferers but for the enlarging and standardizing of
knowledge of the horrible disease, and consequently for
the permanent welfare of the world and the sure allevia
tion in future of distress that would be infinitely greater
if he had not done his part. He cut himself off from
30 or 40 years of splendid bright manhood that he might
have enwyed if some streak of ignorant selfishness
had led him to avoid the field of most desperate struggle
and to seek the easier, ways.
But what is life for? Did. he not, in fact, fulfil in
heroic and measureless degree the requirements of the
only idea of life's purpose and life's duty that seems
at all rational? That purpose and that duty are to
better the conditions of living for humankind, to broaden
human opportunities, to remove obstacles to normal de
velopment, to leave the world a little better than one
found it in other words, service to the race is the only
rational aim in life. So seeing, Dr. Carlos Husk won
the game.
Though his spirit no longer inhabits the familiar
form that we call his body; though the earthy part of
him has begun to return to the elements from which
it received its material components; nevertheless per
haps the man we knew is today rejoicing, not grieving,
at the separation. Such may be one of the rewards of
self immolation for the sake of others.
There is a certain sense of satisfaction that, if the
end had to be, at this time and in such a gloriously
simple way, it was to Mexico and Mexicans that the gift
was made. What Mexican of intelligence and sympa
thetic feeling can fail to be impressed with the higher
meaning of this event? Here is an American, giving
his life for the lowliest of Mexicans. Here is an Amer
ican corporation, devoting its means with boundless
generosity to the relief of Mexicans. Here is an
American philanthropic institution, cooperating with an
American scientific institution, with men and money
and supplies, to relieve Mexicans from distresses, mis
fortunes, physical handicaps, that America had no part
in causing. Is it not a fine demonstration of the real,
true, sincere, basic American feeling toward Mexico?
Kindly, human, tolerant, friendly, helpful, after all.
And the mission of American troops in Mexico at
this time is no less a mission of service, of good will,
of friendship and helpfulness and peace. The American
heart and mind are in it, and it is not a passionate
act of unrestrained impulse, but the result of calm,
deep, deliberate determination to devote our nation's
efforts once more, as often in the past, to disinterested
human service.
The Herald wishes that means might be found by
which the United States, through government and indi
vidual effort, might do more such humanly constructive,
unselfish, serviceable work in Mexico, in the way of
helping to improve Mexico's educational facilities, her
sanitary and economic conditions, her financial status,
her industries, her position among the nations of earth
and thereby to promote the happiness, independence,
contentment, and progress of all Mexicans. Some years
ago, commenting along this line, The Herald alluded
to the service of commodore Matthew Calbraith Perry
m Japan, and expressed the hope that the United
States of this day might find a similar opportunity
on this continent. This is the tribute of the Japanese
people of this generation to the American naval officer
who took warships to Japan in 1852, btit used his guns
for salutes, not war, and opened the way to Japan'
emancipation from the bonds of a dark and outgrown
past; at the dedication of the monument to Perry
which stands at the point on the Japanese coast where
he first set foot, the following words were used by the
Japanese minister of justice:
"Commodore Perry's visit was the turn of the key
which opened the doors of the Japanese empire, an
event which paved the way for. and accelerated the
introduction of, a new order of things: an event that
enaiiled the country to enter upon the unprecedented
era of national prosperity in which we now live.
"Japan has not forgotten nor will she ever for
get that next to her reigning sovereign she owes her
present prosperity to ho United State of America.
At Kurihama. commodore Perry first trod the soil of
Japan, and for the first time awoke the country from
three centuries of slumberous seclusion, there and
then first gleamed the ras of her new era of
progress "
