serious matter that 1t has passed the
boundaries of the medical profession and
become a National question, Senators
are talking about It: corr -rssmen are dis
cussing 1t; governors are seriously con-
sidering the subject. In short. our Nation
is fully aroused to the Importance OF the
subject. They are not only considering
the extent and chronic nature OF the dis
ease. but the possibility OF finding n Ma
tlonal remedy TO meet this National caiam-
