Gunshanan Tells Employees
Relief Association Thew

STATE SUPPLIED
WITH SANITARIUMS
General Patients Will Leave
Hospitals Where Tuber-
culosis Is Treated

John F. Gunshanan, head of the
tuberculosis commission of the state.
addressed the members of the En-
ployes' Tuberculosis Relief associa-
ton at their meeting in the NeWfed
building last night, taking occasion to
defend the hospitals of the state from
aspersions cast upon them, and assert
ing they should not he called upon
to treat advanced tuberculosis cases.
He spoke in part as follows:
We hear from all parts of the state
the cry for more beds for advanced
t1bercular cases, and the next Gen
era1> Assembly must make provisions
for their CARE said John F. Cum
shanan, former Tuberculosis Commits
sioner, in addressing public meet
ing under the auspices of the EN-
plo9es tuberculosis Relief Associa-
ton in the Board of Trade rooms last
evening.
The speaker said the State Tuber-
| culosis Commission, in its report to
Governor Holcomb, under the cap
ton General Hospitals Afraid of
Consumptives,'' assails the hospitals
Of the state who receive state aid be-
cause they refuse, the commission
says, ''to admit cases of tuberculosis
to their wards or private rooms, and
| if by chance, because of a mistake in
diagnosis or because of some such
| emergency as a. street 1emorrhage, a
consumptive is received into a gen
eraI hospital, the officials of that hos
pitaF are, as rule, panic-stricken I'M
til the unfortunate patient is removed
from the building
1.-THE attitude of the officials of the
general hospitals of the state is not
only cruel but is entirely without sci
entif1c justification" Gays the report
of the commission, and further on in
the report, it says, Looking at the
subject in the light of experience and
common sense, ought not these people
to he cared for in a local general hos
pital?"
MIR. Gunshanan, in answer to this
question, said from his experience
these people should not he cared for
in local general hospital.
He said the permanent commission
appointed in 1909 and composed of the
late Dr. John P. C. Foster, George E.
Hall and the speaker, erected the
sanatorfums in Hartford New Haven
and Fairfield counties, as directed by
the General Assembly, and, said Mr..
Gunshanan, I'VE endeavored to locate
them as near the large cities of each
county as possible. No other state
can be compared with Connecticut
with sanatoriums so easily accessible
to the large cities of the state, and
to consider at this time the care of
advanced cases of tuberculosis in OUT
general hospital wards and private
rooms would be a grave mistake, and
any hospital that will receive a num-
Der of advanced cases will find per-
sons requiring hospital attention for
other causes seeking treatment else

REDDINC

Redding, May 9-The grass and
woodland fire which ragged in the
GEORGETOWN section on
Sunday, April 20, early caught the at
tention of the Ridgefeld fire warden
and he hurried to the scene with a
squad of about thirty, the party
bringing two auto trucks into service
for the trip. They worked for several
hours in conjunction with the Red
ding warden and his gang and their
assistance was welcome. For their
services a bill of SAL, of which $40
was for transportation, came before
the selectmen last Monday somewhat
to their surprise. Considerable dis
cussion leaving them in doubt as to
the proper disposition of the claim.
they deferred definite action, and be-
fore taking it will seek the advice of
the state fire warden. The selectmen
are inclined to think that the claim
cannot be legally enforced because
the law provides for the payment of
only those brush fire fighters who are
+ called upon for help by the local fire
warden The aid of the Ridgefield
party came without being asked for,
but nevertheless it was not rejected
and having been of value there would
appear to be a moral obligation on the
part of this town to pay a reasonable
COMPENSATION, Whether the bill is
excessive is another question. Had
no claim been rendered the Ridgeheld
