THE WHITE PLAGUE DURABLE
Dread Scourge Must Be Treated in

O. F. Lewis, in American Review OF Reviews.
The fight against tuberculosis is fire.
quently called a campaign of education,
because only through widespread instruc-
ton given to the sufferer and his neigh
bors can consumption be limited, reduced
or prevented But this fight against tu-
berculoSis is also an education to the stu
dent Of social movements, because the
relatively speedy development of general
interest in the fight and in the construc-
ton of social machinery to spread in
terest and knowledge has been a test
case. so to speak. of the possibility of
awakening the social conscience when
great sanitary issue is involved.
A Well Planned Campaign.
Hardly "a decade ago consumption was
regarded as modern "scourge of God;
today the population of city after city is
learning (and remembering that 'tuber-
cuosis is u durable disease If treated In
its incipient stages" This campaign of
widespread dissemination of instruction
and information is a social phenomenon
that could occur only in most modern
times. Earlier fights against contagious
diseases We're largely laundering, local
or conducted by group of class. gen.
orally physicians. This modern fight
against the white plague" is we'll plan
ned. relatively general and effective, be-
cause it has been undertaken by many
different representative groups. which
have co-ordinated their efforts. The task
Of spreading information about the dis
ease. of getting the individual patients
to observe instructions. and Of getting
groups and communities to construct and
run the machinery of the campaign has
been, and still is. a gigantic task. Prog
ress or success In the fight against tuber
culosis has been dependent upon the dis
semination Of vital information to mil
lions Of persons. of many tongues. often
most wretchedly housed and inhabiting
various areas of the municipalities. The
report of a notorious murder trial will
be spread by the newspapers TO every nook
and Granny of the city. but naturally
newspapers cannot be counted on to pur-
vey tuberculosis doctrine with regularity
Yet masses of human beings must be in
structed, not only now to treat the dis
ease in themselves, but also how not to
give it to others. Moreover, the fight
against tuberculosis, though starting 10
cally in many places. is essentially
common fight against a common enemy.
The disease does not "stay put" and must
be attacked all along the line.

Results of Five Years Work.

What has been done? What will be
done? The former question is perhaps
best answered by citing typical instances
of striking activity. % Only five years
ago the committee on the prevention of
tuberculosis of the Charity Organization
Society of the city of New York was ap-
pointed. What has this committee done?
The handbook and the directory of Or
carnations, sanatoria and hospitals for
the treatment of tuberculosis in the
United States not only have been OF great
assistance to pioneers in tuberculosis
work. but have had a direct influence in
forming public opinion and creating a
general interest in preventive measures
all over the country The don't card"
which in simple language gives suggestions
regarding the prevention of tuberculosis
has become standard form of ltera-
ture for general didactic use It's circu-
!ation has literally run up into the mil
lions. Lectures OF tuberculosis, mainly
stereopticOn, given during the five years
under the auspices of the committee have
reached audience of some 10000 per-
sons. The travelling tuberculosis eXhibi-
/ ton, containing models photographs
charts, etc. has been shown in many
places in New York city to probably one
half million people In the summer of
1901 the committee reSurrected for day
camp purposes an old city ferryboat and

small cost increased weight, good color

and cleanliness can be gained by con-

Home Treatment Inadequate.

Twenty months exhaustive study of re-
lief of consumptives in their homes shows
conclusivcly that home relief in advanced
cases is a dangerous substitute for isola-
ton in hospitals, and that in an over
whelning and appalling majority Of cases
at present home treatment among the
poor is a problem impossible of solution
Yet over 10000 tuberculosis persons in
New York city tenementS will, most of
them never see the inside of a hospital
although a smaller yet still large number
will enter the hospital only to die there
This vitality important fact alone, en-
phasizing the present inadequacy of home
treatment for tuberculosis. proved by the
Charity Organization Society's committee
of experienced members is far reaching
and indeed epoch-naking. because 1t
means that society must do one of two
things: Since hospital provision for tuber-
culosis by no means keeps pace with the
need of hospital facilities, the disease
must he attacked, checked. reduced and
diminished in its stronghold among the
tenements. or else society must be salts
fled to fight a losing fight. Society must
make very heavy expenditures on the
fight" fof many years or else incur in
creasingly great losses in human life.
Municipal Agencies Cooperate.
Only through cooperation of the most
varied agencies in The municipality can
tuberculosis be successfully combated
one class or group can do very little alone
against this common enemy. A promi-
nent New York physician said recently
to the writer: Never would we have
gotten so far toward an adequate treat
ment of tuberculosis had 1t not been for
the cooperation of many groups of per-
sons interested in social betterment. The
physician alone. tied up with individual
and private cases and with hospital work
has little time to study the general tu-
berculosis situation or to evolve large
social plans for it's treatment. He is glad
to he a member of tuberculosis commit
tees. and his experience with individual
cases Is most valuable. but other agencies
must wage the general warfare.
CD But consumption is not disease OF
The metropolis alone. From 1900 to
Il. 900 persons die annually of tubercu-
losis in New York tate. One out of every
three persons dying during the time OF
life that should be of the greatest pro-
ductive energy dies of tuberculosis.
