berg Principal Speakers at

WASHINGTON, Sept. 2-what Is prac-
tically a worlds war on tuberculosis was
formally opened at the New National Mu-
scum in this city last night. The exhibition

international congress on tuberculosis. The
meeting WAS presided over by District
Commissioner Mcfarland and addresses
were made by Secretary Of Agriculture
Wilson, General George N. Sternburg, a
member Of the central committee on ar
rangements for the congress-; DR.. 5. G.
Dixon. state medical officer OF Pennsyl-
vania; DR.. Henry @. Boyer OF the United
States navy, chairman Of the committee
on exhibition, and DR.. L. F. Flick. chair
man of the committee of the tuberculous
congress. The congress will remain open
until October IL, during which time there
will be illustrations and talks on the fight
on tuberculosis I'm all parts of the world.
Every civilized nation is represented. on
next Monday the official opening OF the
congress proper will occur.
There were seated on the platform many
scientists who have come from every part
Of the globe. The auditorium, with a seat
ing capacity Of $500. was we'll filled.
Secretary Wilson, in his address, re-
viewed at length the agricultural depart
ment's campaign against tuberculosis
through the determination Of infected dairy
cattle. He alluded to the work of the de-
partment in preventing the entrance into
this country of infected cattle from the
Philippines. The inspection of slaughter
houses throughout the country, he pointed
out, was one of the rigid safeguards which
the department has taken TO protect the
public,
1T has been demonstrated that in its
earlier stages tuberculosis is curable,' said
Surgeon Genera George NJ. Sternburg,
THE apathy of the past was founded on
Ignorance. The vigorous campaign which
has been ~inaugurated during recent years
for the cure and prevention Of tuberculo-
sis is based upon exact knowledge and
will no doubt result in a rapid decrease in
the mortality from this disease and even
tually, we hope, in its practical extinction.
This hope is justified by results which have
already been attained In Europe. Educa-
ton of the people generally is a funda-
mental requisite in the prosecution of the
campaign. 1t will require the united ef-
forts of sanitariuns, physicians. social
workers and fraternal church organiza-
tons, teachers and the educated classes
generally"
