they would tackle smallpox or yellow
fever, neither one of which have ever
taken such toll of human life or
caused such an immense human waste.
DR.. Farrand, president of the Univer-
sity of Colorado and a director of the
American Commission for the Proven
ton of tuberculosis in France, stopped
IN New York on his way back over
seas and urged that the people of Ameri-
en- throw themselves into winning the
war against tuberculosis with the same
zeal and efficiency with which they
have hurled themselves against Ger
many. The brutal truth Of the situa-
tion is that the mortality from fuber-
eulosis among the civilian population
and in the armies OF all the countries
engaged has at least approximated the
total number of soldiers killed in bat
tie.
