Washington, d. C.-(special.) )-Ac-
ccrding to report made to the United
States Public Health Service, the cpl
demic OF influenza in Spain has al
ready caused an increase In the preva-
lence and deaths from pulmonary tu-
berculosis. A similar association be-
tween influenza and tuberculosis was
recently made by Sir Arthur News
holne, the chief medical officer OF tho
English public health service. in his
analysis Of the tuberculosis death rate
In England.
In order that the people Of the Unit
ed States may profit BY the experience
Of other countries Surgeon General
Rupert Blue Of tho United States Pub.
lie Health Service has just issued a
warning emphasizing the need Of spe-
eial precautions at the present time.
"EKpertence seems to indicate" says
the Surgeon General. "that persons
whose resistance has been weakened
by an attack OF influenza arc peculiar
ly susceptible to Tuberculosis. With
millions Of Its people recently affected
with influenza this country now, or
fers conditions favoring the spread Of
tuberculosis" 49,. s,...

United statas. ...'. D..
"Then you consider this q serious
menace3 was asked. F''In my opinion
It Is though hasten to add it is dis
ttnctly one against which the people
can guard SO far as ono can estimate
there are ut present about one million
cases Of tuberculosiS in the United
States. There 10 unfortunately no
complete census available to show ex-
ectly tho number Of tuberculosis per.
sons in each state despite the fact that
most OF tho states have made tho dis
ease reportable. In New York city,
where reporting has been in force for
many years, over $4,000 cases Of tu-'
berculosis are registered with the De-
partnent Of Health. Those familiar
with the situation believe that the ad-
dillon Of unrecognized and unreported
cases would make the number nearer
10000. The very careful health sur
vey conducted during the past two
years In Framingham, Mass, revealed
200 cases of tuberculosis in populn-
tlon Of approximately $4,000. II these
proportions hold true for the United
States as whole they would indicate
that about one in every hundred per-
sons IS tuberculous. Each of these
constitutes source Of danger to be
guarded against"
What TO Do.
In his statement to the pubic Sur.
geon General Blue points out how
those who have had Influenza should
protect themselves against tuberculo-
sls. "An who have recovered from In
