A Great National Health Week to be Observed
From March II to u, 1915.

Tuskegee Institute, Ala. - After
carefully considering the whole mat
ter, 1 am authorized by the Executive
Committee of the National Negro
Business League to invite the follow
ing organizations, as well as others
to be named later, to unite with the
League in observing a National
Health Week:
Daily and weekly newspapers,
Health journals,
The National Medical Association,
The National Association of Grad
uate Nurses,
The National Association of Color
ed Women's Clubs,
The National League on Urban con-
ditions among Negroes,

ers in Colored Schools,

ton,

colored religious denominations,

the leadership of Major r. R. Mo-
ton, has observed a Health or Clean.
up Week. 1t is thought to be well
to unite all these efforts into a Ma
tional Movement and join the move
ment on to the Virginia effort.
1t is thought the race will welcome
this opportunity to unite all these eff.
forts in. one great National Health
Movement, and thus gain the benefit
of the momentum and the enthusi-
asm hat will come from the great
united Health Movement.
Without Health and until we reduce
our high death rate it will be impossi.
BILE for us to have permanent success
in business, in property getting, in
acquiring education, or to show other
evidences of progress. WITHOUT
HEALTH AND LONG LIFE ALL
ELSE FAILS!
The following facts will illustrate
something of the need and Importance
of this health movement:
100000 Negroes in the South alone
are seriously i'll all the time; the an
nual cost of the sickness of these $780,
900 Negroes is SIS, OOO, 900.
10000 Negro workers in the South
alone are sick all the time; their an
nual loss in earnings is $45, 000, 900;
As per cent of t he annual deaths
among Negroes are ~preventable.
$4,000 Negroes of the working
class die annually; 100,0 900 of these
deaths can be prevented.
The annual funeral expenses of Ne.
groes in the South alone are $751;
100000, $6,5OO,O 900 of this amount
could be saved.
Sickness and death cost Negroes of
the South alone, 500, OOO, 900; $780,
000,0 of this amount could be saved.
We must reduce our high death
rate, dethrone disease and enthrone
health and long life. We may differ
on othr subjects, but there is no room
for differences here. Let us make a
strong, long, united pull together.
Other facts will appear in the week

to week, and information will be glad.
