SIMPLY A TRAoIcAL FARCE.
Conclusions Of a British Physician on
Consumptive Cure as Eng
land Conducts It.

DR.. Ronald Macfe, of Dundee,
Scotland, lately medical superin-
tendent Of the Sidlaw sanatorium,
declares that sanatoria for the
poor as at present conducted in
England are "simply q tragical
farce"
Merely to relieve pauperism due
to tuberculosis it is said $4,000,
600 annually are spent. DR.. Mac.
6e, in an article which has just ap.
peared in the Lancet, states that
there are in Great Britain at pres
ent about 100000 Consumptives
and about 1000 sanatorium beds
for these. Therefore about 5000
patients, i. e., about one in seventy,
can be treated, and, therefore, If
all patients treated were cured the
death rate from consumption
would be lowered by about Ia per
cent. AS a matter of fact, how
ever, only a small percentage Of
the patients treated are cured.
Therefore the much Wanted sana-
forum crusade which was expect
ed to stamp out tuberculosis hard
ly affects the death rate,
1t may be objected that the san
atorium system in Englandis only
In its infancy, but DR.. Mache, fore
stalling this objection, shows that
In Germany, where the expert
ment has been made under almost
ideal administrative conditions
and in a business-like and scien.
tifc way, the sanatoria for the
poor have not been an unqualified
success.
! There are now in Germany more
than 20 sanatoria capable Of treat
ing 10000 persons in the curse o.
the year. The German imperia
