PRESS OF COUNTRY PRAISED

tion Acknowledge Debt in Fight

Publicity in newspapers and maya
zines to the amount of 100000 lnches
a year on tuberculosis and It's preVen-
ton is being given by the press OF the
United States, according to an estl'
mate issued recently by the National
Association for the Study and Proven
ton of Tuberculosis. If all the pub
licity on tuberculosis given by the
press of this country gathered in one
paper, the National Association estl-
mates 1t would make paper OF over
$3.50 pages. In the last four years,
during which time an active publicity
campaign has been carried on, the
National Association estimates that
over 100000 inches, or over 80 miles,
of press notices on tuberculosis have
been published.
Publicity is the very heart Of the
educational campaign against tuber-
culosis." says DR.. Livingston Farrand,
the executive secretary Of the national
association. Largely because of the
intelligent cooperation Of the press
has the anti-tuberculosis movement in
this country been able to become, as
1t is, the greatest organized movement
of its kind in the world. When tuber-
culosis shall have become rare dis
ease the American press may Justly
claim large share in this gigantic
achievement"
