TUBERCULOSIS DRUNKARDs.
Former Commissioner Gunshanan Writes of the Problem of Their Care.

The Connecticut Citizen for January contains an interesting paper by John F. Gunshanan, former tuberculosis commissioner, on The Tuberculosis Drunkard. The communication from MT. Gunshanan follows:
 Shall we house the tuberculosis drunkards or shall we allow them to road the streets splitting deadly germs by the millions, endangering the lives of every man, woman and child who breathes Gods fresh air :? The sanatoriums and almshouses are closed against them. They are out casts and the only places open to them are the jails. We are spend ing more than one million dollars an nually in an endeavor to check the spread of this disease by education and segregation, and unless the state provides a suitable place for these unfortUnates the whole campaign car ried on in our commonwealth is doom ed to failure.
 There is encourag cement, however, in the late election because the repub- lican party platSErm contains the fol- lowing plank:
 We heartily endorse the course of previous republican administrations in providing for the investigations of tu- berculosis in Connecticut and creating institutions to care for persons af- hicted with that disease, and we glad ly recognize the large part which la bor has taken in this work for hu- man and believe that every incentive should be given to it to continue its efforts in this regard
 The representatives of mora than 5e,000 laboring people who are mem bers Of Employees Tuberculosis Re lief associations held a meeting at the Allyn house, Hartford, Nov. 22d, and the following resolution wasunani- mCusly passed
 Resolved, that We earnestly request the general assembly of 1915 to enact such legislation as is necessary to provide for the care and treatment of persons addicted to the excessive use of alcohol. who are afflicted with tu- berculosis, in an institution separate from those now maintained by the state for the treatment of tubercu- losis.7
 The delegates in the discussion on this resolution were not opposed to having the building erected on a farm for inebriates if the legislature should pass such measure. as they felt that many cases of tuberculosis would de- Telop among persons sent to the farm after they had been there Q short time and a hospital building would be nec- essary for such of the inmates as were afflicted with any disease.

Besides the initiation the business of the meeting included the presenta- tion of two new applications for mem bership.
 After the regular business had been disposed of, the visiting district dep uty took the floor and in a very pleas ing way made an address, in which he referred generally to the growth of the order in the state and nation and then touched upon local matters in which he took occasion to commend the initiatory work that he had seen conducted by the Norwich lodge of f1cers. He commended the lodge for the progressive spirit which it is show ing in the erection of the addition to it's building and recommended to them a renewed and continued effort to increase it's membership.
