What is designed by the National
Association for the Study and Preven-
ton OF tuberculosis as the most ad-
vanced legislation In the campaign
against tuberculosis that has been
enacted By any state In the United
States. II not by any country in the
world. Is found in a bill recently
passed by the New Jersey legislature
and signed by Governor Wilson. The
new law provides that tuberculosis
patients who refuse to obey the regu-
lations laid down by the state board
OF health concerning the prevention OF
their disease, and thus become a men,
ace to the health OF those with whom
they associate. shall be compulsortly
segregated by order of the courts. in
institutions provided for this purpose.
II such patient refuses to obey the
rules and regulations of the institu-
ton In which he is placed, he may be
isolated or separated from other per-
sons and restrained from leaving the
institution" The law further pro-
vides that all counties in the state
of New Jersey shall within six months
from April list make provision in spe-
cial institutions for the care OF all
persons having tuberculosis in these
counties. The state treasury will sub
sidize each county to the extent of

who are able to pay for the cost OF
