FEDERAL'CONTROL
FOR TUBERCULOSIS
National BODY Proposes Divi-
sion Of tuberculosis in
Public Health Service.

Participation of the Federal Gov
ernment through the United States
Public Health Service in the study
and control of tuberculosis-is urged
by a resolution adopted by the Ma
tional Association for the Study and
Prevention of tuberculosis.
The National Association proposes
that by act Of Congress a special di-
vision of tuberculosis be established
in the United States Public Health
Service with an adequate appropria-
ton. This division should be manned
by experts and should study the tu-
berculosis problem from every point
of view and should, so far as possible,
set up standards for the treatment and
prevention of the disease throughout
the country. One of the problems
which it is proposed to study first
would be that of the INDECENT migra-
tory consumption, particularly in the
health resorts of various parts OF the
United States, such as California,
New Mexico, Colorado and Texas.
Another problem which it is proposed
should be studied is that relating to
the causes of tuberculosis. A bill in
troduced by Congressman Kent, of
California, in the House and by Sena-
tor Norris, of Nebraska, in the Senate
provides for some of the things which
the National Association asks for and
also for a Federal subsidy to hospitals
caring for nonresident consumptives.
Commenting on the resolution, DR..
Charles J. Hatfield, Executive Secre-
tary of the National Association for
the Study and Prevention of Tuber-
culosis, says: 'In spite of the fact
that tuberculosis is costing the United
States from $5OO,0O0,0O0 to $1,000,
100000 every year in lives lost, the
amount of money being spent annual
ly by all private and public agencies
is not much more than $4,000, 900;
and while nationwide crusade to
stamp cut tuberculosis has been or
ganized, we are still ignorant of many
of the factors that produce it. A few
thousand dollars wisely spent in scien-
tific research under Federal super
vision will secure results Of incalcul
liable benefit to this country"
