Investigations have been conducted

with view of determining whether
the disease is trausmissible from man

1t has been shown by the experiments

the bacilli are as viruient for cattle
as are the bacilli obtained from
animals affected With the disease.
The conclusion from this fact is that
either human and animal tuberculosis
are identical and intercommunicable
