WAR ON TUBERCULOSIS.

What can be accomplished in the
lessening Of disease is shown in re-
fent report by Frederick L. HOFFMAN
on the campaign against tuberculosis.
This was begun in 1906. Commenting
on this campaign, the New York POST
remarks: "At that time the annual
death rate in IS cities was l95 per
thousand. After the expenditure OF
millions on new hospitals, organiza-
lions and clinics, the death rate OF
last year was 1863. The justif1ca-
ton of the work is evident in these.
cold figures. Applied to the country,
they signify an annual saving OF 3O'-i
900 lives. But the disease is even YET
far from eradicated. In fact, only be-
ginnings have been made in the light
against it. Local outbreaks OF 1t are
still battling. In Detroit, Fall River
Worcester and Newark there was q
marked increase last year. The reason
is not clear. It may have to do with
factory conditions. But differences IN
nationality have also an important
bearing. The death rate for negroes
is many times as high as that for
whites; and among the whites the rate
for Irish and German born and ma
tive Americans is far higher than that
for Russians and Italians. The facts
need still further sitting in order to
insure a maximum result from the med.
zeal effort and money expended"

German government still claims their
