WASHINGTON, b. c., May 49, ~
Plans for the extension of the anti
tuberculosis campaign among the
working men and women of the coun-
try were outlined by Dr. Charles j..
Hatfield, the executive secretary of
the national association for the study
and prevention of tuberculosis, in an
address before the sociological sec
ton of the association here last even
ing.
DIR. Hatfield said.
Local tuberculosis relief associa-
tons among the working men and wo-
men of this country have for the most
part taken four forms. those in which
the employees and the employer have
both contributed on more or less
fixed basis; those in which the EN-
ployers only have contributed; those
in which the working men have APP
pealed to the general community for
the establishment of sanatorium !;
and those in which the labor unions
have controlled the work for the re-
lief of fellow members. There are
besides there four forms of organiza-
ton the large number of general bene-
fit associations in shops and stores,
and the splendid work of the large
international unions such as the typo
graphical, printing pressmen, photo
engravers, cigarmakers and others.
"In Hartford and other Connecticut
cities a form of organization has
grown up in which the workers con
