FIGHT PROCEEDS 70DAI
on TUBERCULOSIS
Where Campaign Is to
Begin.

A statement issued last night from
the headquarters OF the Richmond
Anti-Tuberculosis association explain
ed how friends of this organization
can perform valuable service in the
cause of health during the coming
holiday season, Notwithstanding that
Christmas seals will not be sold
One of the principal sources of
revenue to defray the cost of the
fight against tuberculosis in previous
years has been the sale Of seals sup
piled the association by the Red eros.
In order that the health campaign
may be enlarged the Red Cross this
year has contributed 32,500.0o0 to the
national association. The money will
be used In carrying on the work of
the various associations throughout
the country In 1919 and represents
40 per cent more than realized from
the most successful seal sale.
Richmonders will be able to obtain
seals this year, though they will not
be disposed of in the customary
manner. Each person joining the
Red Cross during the Christmas roll
call the week of Decent Der / 6, to %
will receive ten seals, which will be
contained in circular on tubercu-
losis and the war against it.
In order to show their apprecia-
ton of the support OF the Red Cross
our workers will be urged to assist
TO the utmost in making the roll-cal II
a huge success" said Miss Blanche
Webb, acting executive secretary of
the local tuberculosis association.
by communicating with the direc-
tor of the Richmond Red Cross chap
ter members and supporters of our
association can learn readily how
they may best participate in the Red
Cross program. Those who have in
previous years assisted in the sale of
seals will undoubtedly be of great as
sistance in obtaining Red Cross MEM
berships.'
This week marks the beginning of
the tuberculosis associations survey
OF Richmond for the purpose of dis
covering fncipient cases Of tubercu-
losis. Fulton will be the first section
OF the city surveyed and in Fulton
churches talks will be made today by

HOW HIGHWAY WORK
AWAITED PEACE

Although s14.550,0o0 was avail
able for expenditure on the post roads
from the federal aid road act, only
$425,445 was paid from federal funds
in the highway construction season
of 1918 on all projects. The reason
for this, according to the annual re-
port of the secretary OF agriculture.
was the steps taken to conserve
money. labor, transportation and ma
terials in highway work during the
war, and at the same time TO facili-
tate really essential highway projects
In connection with the federal aid
road work a letter was addressed to
each state highway department ask
ing that a program of federal aid
construction be submitted at the ear
lest possible date. in which would
he included only those projects which
the state highway departments con-
sidered vitality necessary TO the trans
portation facilities of the country.
At the request OF the capital issues
com mittee, engineers of the depart
ment were made available for in
specting and reporting upon proposed
highway and irrigation and drainage
bond issues Inspections were made
OF 1871 separate projects, involving to-
tai bond issues OF sss.a123ss. An
arrangements was made with the Fuel
Administration whereby highways OF
special importance should receive
enough bituminous material to pro-
vide for adequate maintenance. and.
where necessary. TO permi. construc-
ton and reconstruction. From May
10 1918, when the cooperation be-
came actively effective. until the close
of the fiscal year 2.235 applications.
calling for 75oo0.eoo gallons OF bi-
luminous material, were received
from states. counties and municipali-
ties OF. this amount approval was
given and permits were issued for
SIS. 600. 600 gallons
In order to coordinate the activi-
ties of various government agencies,
so far as they relate to highways: bet
ter to conserve materials. transporta-
ton, money and labor, 10 eliminate
delays and uncertainties, and to pro-
vide positive assistance in carrying on
vitality effective highway work. the
secretly requested each OF the gov
eminent departments and safhiHfR-
trations Interested 10 name repre-
with highway projects during the
period OF the war.
As result. the United States
highway council. consisting OF a rep
reseutative from the department OF
agriculture. the war department. the
railroad administration, the war in
dustries board. and the fuel admins
tra,ion was formed in June. During
the first four months of its existence
the council passed upon about 5000
applications involving nearly 100000
barrels OF cement. 3,25o,0oo tons OF
stone. l.140. 900 tons of gravel. l,2o1.-
