Facing a Gigantic Task.

The Indian service has under its gen.
eral supervision $4,000 Indians. and of
these il is a conservative estimate to
say that 10000 are still entirely de-
pendent on the federal medical service.
This service has 160 physicians, over a
third OF whom under their terms of en-
ployment devote only a part of their time
10 Indians When IL is remembered that
Indians are so scattered that a physician
frequently has 10 drive a day or more
out and a day or more back to reach one
family the inadeQuacy of such service is
plain While there are many efficient and
self-sacrificing physicians in this serv-
ice. the smallness of the salaries, which
average only 81 1856 a year, necessarily
affects the qualification and ability of
the physicians engaged. In spite of ad-
verse conditions. thousands of cases of
tuberculosis and trachoma are being sys-
tematicaily treated. and serious epidem-
les of diphtheria. measles. cerebro spinal
meningitis and other infectious diseases
have been checked. Hundreds of lives
have been saved, and distinct start has
been made in getting fresh air and gen
orally better sanitary conditions into the
homes.
The Indian medical service should
therefore be substantially increased in
size and should be lifted into efficiency
through the better men whom as a rule
only better salaries can command OF

without extravaganza. and after a COM
parative study of other medical services

To SIGN PANAMA BILL
GRANTING FREE TOLLS
President Discusses With
Visitors Measure Passed
by the Senate.

President Taft told several callers yes
terday that he expected to sign the Panama
canal bill passed by the Senate Friday,
carrying provisions against the use of the
canal by railroad-Owned ships and grant
ing free tolls to American vessels. Ihe
President is said to have declared that
some of the provisions of the measure did
not meet with his views entirely but that
he expected to approve it.
Railroad and legal experts in Congress
held the view that the Senate had author
lied a highly important extension of the
power of the interstate commerce COM
mission in adopting the House amendment
TO the Panama canal bill.
The provision would authorize the
commission to divorce competing rail-
road and steamship lines, whenever they
We're found to operate to the detriment
Of the public, and would extend powers
of regulation over water routes.
Such control has long been desired by
the interstate commerce commission, but

Will Reconcile Differences.

Little difficulty is anticipated in recon-
Cling the differences between the Senate
and House on the bill
A conference will be required mainly TO
smooth out the literary structure of the
bill. and for discussion of the Senate
amendment throwing open the canal to
American ships engaged in foreign trade.
The House bill favored free tolls for
American ships engaged solely in coast
wise trade, but withheld the privilege
from those engaged in foreign commerce.

would be unfair TO the ships of other ma

Unsatisfactory Conditions.

To the Senate and House of Repre-
sentatives: The present conditions of
health on Indian reservations and in In
dian schools are broadly speaking. very
unsatisfactory. In many parts of the
Indian country infant mortality tuber-
culosis and disastrous diseases general
ly prevail to an extent exceeded only in
some of the most inSanitary of our white
rural districts and in the worst slums
of our large cities.
The death rate in the Indian country
is thirty-five per thousand. as compared
with fifteen per thousand-the average
death rate for the United States
whole. The average death rate in some
of the healthiest of our cities is as low
a. twelve per thousand. No exact fig
ures are yet available for infant mortal
ity among Indians, but field studies now
being made show that while proportion

Thousands Have Trachoma.

Last year of over $1,000 Indians ex-
amined for disease. over 16 per cent of
them had trachoma. contagious disease
of the eye. frequently resulting in blind
ness. and so easily spread that it threat
ems both the Indian communities and all
their white neighbors. Ii is a disease so
serious that at no port of entry in this
country is the immigrant with trachoma
allowed to land. On the Kiowa, Conan
che and Apache reservations IL per cent
of the school children have trachoma.
The curing of this disease frequently re-
quires years of constant care. OF the

culosis. on the White Earth reservation.
in Minnesota. house-to-house canvas in
1910 and 1911 revealed that of $500 In
dians eco had tuberculosis. An eXamina-
ton of half the Indians on the Blackfoot
reservation. Montana, shows that one
third of that number have tuberculosis.
OF the total population of the Colorado
river reservation Arizona, 20 per cent have
tuberculosis At the school of MeScalerO
reservation, in New Mexico, where eli
matte conditions are ideal. ) per cent of
the children in school have tuberculosis.
OF the 1000 Indians of the Pine Ridge
reservation. South Dakota. over one
fourth have tuberculosis. Even in south
ern California at least 10 per cent of the
Indians have this dread disease. In
addition TO these scourges and the special
lowering of vitality which exists in those
sections where the Indians can procure in
tOXlCantS, they are more subject thdn the
average white men to the whole list of
acute diseases Few Indian homes any
where have proper sanitary conditions.
and i'll many instances the bad condition
of their domestic surroundings is almost
beyond belief.
Duty of the American People.
las guardians of the welfare of the
Indians. it is our immediate duty to give
to the race fair chance for an un-
MANNED birth. healthy childhood and
physically efficient maturity.
THE most vigorous campaign ever
waged against disease among the In
dams is now under way. 1t began in
1863. Prior to that time little attention
had been given to the hygiene and health
equal in area to state, there were not
more than two physicians, frequently
only one. In 1909 tens of thousands of
Indians were substantially without any
chance to reach doctor. The govern
ment was startled into reform in this
matter through the discovery that at the
Phoenix Indian School. AriZ., more than
65 per cent of the children were infected
with trachoma. In response TO the show
ing then made. Congress Immediately ap-
propriated an emergency sum of ST. Geo.
Physicians sparSely scattered over the
Indian country We're then organized as
the nucleus of efficient fighting force
and the fight has been conducted not only
on curative, but on preventive lines AS
the need for this work has become more
