NEW YORK'S ECONOMIC LOSS
FROM TUBERCULOSIS IN 1913
REPORTED As SS1, ,1j6, 900

New York, Nov. l5.-Ncw York City's
economic loss in 1913 from tuberculosis
was Approximately $S1,75G,OoO, accord
ing 10 a statement made today by Dr.
Herman NJ. Bsss. state commissioner
Of health.
The magnitude of this loss could
better be comprchended, added the state
health commissioner, when it recalled
that the aitys budget last year was
S2aSl23 I59. I'm other words the loss
from tuberculosis in one year was more
than one-third the entire cost Of run
ming the entire city government for
the same year.
There were l0197 deaths here from
tuberculosis i'm its various forms last
year, continued Dr. Biggs, who has
just been made chairman of the OK
ecutiye committee of the Greater New
York Red Cross Christmas Seal Sale,
which finances the fight against tu.
bercuosis in New York. On June
3Oth last 2913O cases were registered
with the board Of health The 1920 sale
will open on December Ist in practi
cally every city and town in the coun-
try and viii continue for 10 days
More than go, 100000 seals will be sold.
The city's economic loss, according
TO Dr. Biggs, is greater from tuber-
culosis than from any other disease
for the very reason that a larger per
contaec of workers are the victims.
Alost of these victims are between
the ages Of Is and 80. although there
is a great loss of life among children
as young as five years. The New
Yorker, however, who has tuberculosis,
dies at the average age Of thirty-fivc,
losing rwenty-fom years which, in the
event of good health would be his to
live. Seventeen Of these years, DR..
