sufferers from tuberculosis who seek
relief in the climate of the Southwest
have difficult problems of their own to
face and at the same time they pre-.
sent serious problem to the people
of the Southwestern States and terri.
tories. In a paper which was read
by Surgeon P. M. Darlington of the
public health and marine hospital
service of the United States at the
International Congress on Tubercu.
losis at Washington, 1t was shown
that many of the refugees were not
able to pay for care and treatment.
Ten per cent of the consumptives who
go to Deming N. NJ, are INDECENT and
8 per cent become public charges; so
per cent of those at Las Vegas are
classed as INDECENT, and though there
are ample accommodations for them.
1t Is said that their care is a heavy
burden on the town. At Ell Paso, Tex,
the number of consumptive visitors is
1,5O0, more than 500 have insufficient
means, 250 receive partial support and
15O are wholly destitute" Sixty per
cent of the requests for assistance
come from consumptives, three-fourths
of whom are INDECENT. These are Civ.

decided phthisisphobia. OF necessity,
special institutions have been estab.

tients, and the situation indicates the
des1rability of greater provision for
them in other parts of the country.
DR.. Darlington expresses the opinion
that while the disease Is no respecter
of persons, attacking the rich and the
poor alike, nevertheless a majority of
the sufferers are "of moderate or very
needy financial circumstances" They
are poorly fitted for long and ex.
pensive journeys and the trials that
beset them among strange people in
strange land. The wisdom of the
action that has just been taken in
Chicago is thus made manifest. San.
atoria should be erected throughout
the North, and something of value
might be learned from the expert.

Southwest. DR.. Darlington, who has

torium, advocates the use of the tent
house for various reasons. He de.
clares that though 1t has been object.
ed that 1t would afford insufficient
protection in cold ATTITUDES, they have
had Temperatures as low as Is degrees
below zero at Fort Stanton, and at
no time have the occupants of tents
or tent houses felt any discomfort
from the weather. He deals with the
question of cost at some length, and
says that sanatorium for fifty pa.
tients with all necessary service build.

about $3.50 bed, and that upon in
creasing its capacity to one hundred
or one hundred and fifty the cost
would be reduced to $500 or less.

Commissioner recently cost $4,000 to repair.

consist of active and associate clubs the active to

will be few delegates from that section at the
meeting. Each associate club has the right to be
represented by voting delegate. while the allied
clubs may also be represented. but such delegates
