ter region with which the various
states are dealing in different ways
In Texas the state health officer has
just issued statement in which he
says that victims Of tuberculosis In
its advanced stages will be debarred
from entering or remaining in that
state. He declares that conditions
make such rule imperative. So
many INDECENT consumptiyes have
been pouring in and becoming charges
on the public that the people of GER
tain sections are seriously burdened
In caring for such patients This In.

only works hardships on taxpayers,
but the scattering throughout the

to control the spread OF the disease
