Commissioner Hebberd Urges
Support of Charities Organ
ization in Work.
WHY MONEY IS NEEDED,
Aggressive Fight Would Give
Control of Disease Within
Short Time.

The aggressive campaign outlined by
the Committee on Prevention Of Tuher-
culosis OF the Charity Organization So
cl,:y continues TO re indorsed By prom-
nent physicians and laymen.
Robert w. Hebberd, Commissioner OF
Public Charities, to-day enthusiastically
Endorsed the committees plan to raise
funds through gas rebate contributions.
The Commissioner expressed himself as
believing that within a comparatively
shor. time the disease could be brought
under control and the death rate greatly
reduced.
Probably no one In the city has been
In such close touch with the actual
problems Of dealing with the tubercu-
losis sick as has Commissioner Heb
herd, He has under his control a larger
number Of hospital beds for such pa
TENTS than the Health Department and
all the private institutions combined.
Although We made some advance
ment within the past year. said Mr.,
Hebberd to-day, the situation Is FAR
from ideal. On BackwelIs Island we
have, by the removal II certain pavll-
Ions from Bellevue Hospital and the
construction of two additional tents; in
creased the capacity by LOS beds. These
additional beds have afforded little re-
lief to hospitals, however, on account OF
the increased number of patients. We
are still feartuly overcrowded,
Money has been appropriated for
buildings which will accommodate some
us more patients and these Will be
ready next winter. II money can be
secured to carry out the plans for the
new Sea View Hospital on staten Isl
and we will. within couple OF years,
have 1000 additional beds for tubercu-
losis cases. But even II we succeed in
this, which isn't at all certain. we will
stu DE shlr, about some e0S beds. At
presen. We have got about 600 beds less
than we ought 20 have.
II am convinced the patients to deal
with are those suffering from the dis.
ease in an advanced form. They are
the main source Of Infection. 1t Is prob
able that from one 10 four persons are
infected 10y each careless cOnsumptive.
We have got to pr vide for the segre-
cation Of these advanced sufferers.
And | would welcome lust such a
campaign as tie Committee on the Pre-
ventlon OF tuberculosis could Institute
II they could get their hand on 10000.
