will, if not arrested, leave us a totter- ing physical bulwark of weakness. Three Needs Stated. Summarizing his remarks, Governor Campbell said there were three needs; first-organization second education of the people; third-legis- lation. These three accomplished, he 1 sad, we will be more successfully combating the plague of tuberculo- sis.
 Just point the way, and I will demonstrate my willingness as your governor and as a fellow citizen to help in the wonderful work you are doing" said the governor in conclu- sion.
 Dr. A. H. Williams. secretary-treas- urer Of the Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis, who was subsequently elected to the same
 dual Hfice in the new association
 reported that there was $650 in the treasury. so that it could not be said that the new association was starting off entirely without funds However
 he explained this would be far from insufficient to carry on the work pro- posed, even though the association
 were to work on the presumption that the sale of Red Cross seals at Christ mas tune would furnish funds to ! cover and deficit that might now be entalled. He said the association in Maricopa county was endeavoring to enlist 1900 people in the work and in the support of the work in this county He said funds are 10 be col lected for dispensary and for the support of district nurse. A Ford car, ne said, had already been giver
 by an unnamed donor, for the use of such nurse when appointed. He expressed the belief that the city and county could be depended upon to aid in the work.
 Get Work Before People.
 The great problem today" he said
 IS to get the work before the public in way that is calculated to create interest and bring support In this connection he said the newspapers could be counted upon to do their share provided suitable "copy" is df
 fered personally to the papers An executive Secretary would find much to occupy himself if he were to un- dertaFe this work. A health survey of the entire state, he said, was i'm perative and the placing of a dis trict nurse at work, an absolute nec- eSsity Particularly in the mining districts, he said, there was work to 1 be done by a district nurse. In Bis bee. he reported, $150 is available to ] pay for the services of a district nurse the first month. He hoped if
 such nurse were employed that means would be found to continue her services permanently. He said l that Maricopa county was pretty well organized fer this work and that or nf under way.
 Dr. John W. Finn of Prescott
 brought rounds of applause when he took to himself the responsibility of announcing that the new association offers its services and efforts to the needs of the governor of the state and to the State Council of Defense He said that as one of those who or ea,lized the old association he felt that he knew the spirit of the mem bers well enough to pledge the new organization. And a unanimous vote supported him.
 tuberculosis since the outbreak of the European war and of how Cana da was devOting herculean efforts in combating the disease. He said that many go to the front who have no visible affection, but who are re- turned victims of the disease He said that no end of tuberculosis is contracted or acquired through over training. He said great work was at hand in devising means to prevent those of our young men who go to war from acquiring or developing the disease. He said that we should give the same protection to men engaged in industrial pursuits as the govern ;nent gives to the men in it's service
 and he pointed out that the assGcia- tiGn and other like organizations will have a mountain of work at the con- clusion of the war when there will he many more tuberculosis people than there are now, due to the hard ships and ravages of combat.
 Offer Is Appreciated.
 Dwight B Heard, chairman of the Arizona State Council of Defense and one of the directors of the Anti-Tu- berculosis association, extended the appreciation of the council of the offer of Dr. Finn, extending the ser vices and efforts of the association to the needs of the council He said the association can, through cooperation
 bn of incalculable help to the coun- cil
 He called attention to the fact that
 within the next few weeks there will be upwards of 4.O00 young mer
 brought together for the service o the nation. He said that the eX- animation of these young men must not be superficial. Those sent into the service must be of the pest There must he a definite program tt
