MADE BIG PROFIT FOR STATE
Purely Business Argument for the Es-
Establishment of sanltorlums for the
tuberculosis.

According to figures contained in the
annual report of DR.. II. L. Barnes, SUI
perintendent of the Rhode Island state
sanitorium, the earnings of the ex-
patients of that institution during the
year 1911 would amount to over $780,
900. This is a sum three times as
large as that spent each year for main
tenance of the institution, including
four per cent. interest and deprecla-
ton charges,
The actual earnings in 1911 of 11o
eX-patients we're obtained by Dr'
Barnes. These ranged from 81 to
$31 per week, the total earnings Tor
the year amounting to $1O2,752. On
this basis, Dr. Barnes computes the
figures above given. He says, how
ever: while institutions for the cure
of tuberculosis are good investments
there is good reason for thinking that
institutions for the isolation of far
advanced cases would be still better
investments"
Out of total of 46,450 hospital days
treatment given, 39,147 or "a per cent,
were free, the treatment costing the
state on an average 5000 per patient
Out of 1873 free cases investigated, 56
had no families and no income on adj
mission to the sanitorium. Out OF
1872 patients having homes, the num-
Der in the family averaged 81, and
the average family earnings were
SAG. In SO cases the families had nc
income, and in only five cases were
there any savings, none of which
amounted to as much as 500.
