The international congress on tuber-
culosis which recently met in Wash
ington, as whole. dealt especially
with human tuberculosis. but consid-
cradle attention was directed to tuber-
culosis in domestic animals and nota-
bly, to questions dealing with the milk
and meat supply and with the inspec-
ton of these products. One of the
seven sections into which the con.
gress was divided devoted itself espe-
cially to these topics, and the general
addresses before the congress, as a
whole, Included lecture by Profess
or Barnard Bang of Copenhagen on
"Studies In tuberculosis In Domestic
Animals and What We May Learn
Regarding Human tuberculosis" An
extended discussion followed the re-
affirmation by Professor DR.. Robert
Koch Of Berlin of his theory as to the
nonidentity and nontransmissibility of
human and bovine tuberculosis, after
(which resolution was unanimously
adopted recommending "that preven-
tive measures be continued against
bovine tuberculosis and that the pos
sibility of the propagation Of this to
man be recognized"
The very extensive exhibits from
the various countries In America and
Europe attracted much attention and
presented vast amount Of illustra-
tive material of rare educational val
ue. Phases dealing especially with the
prevention and treatment of the dis
ease in its early stages predominated,
there being great variety Of models
of sanitoria and special appliances.
