grave danger that menaces Maryland
as tuberculosis center, were cited
yesterday by DR.. Martin F. Sloan,
superintendent of Eudowood Sana-
t.rium, addressing members of the
Maryland tuberculosis Association
and others at the Young Mems Christ

tackled one in every ten of the State s
population, has left large proper
ton of the people in a respective
state to be attacked by the white
plague, he said.
DR.. Sloan strongly indorsed the
aim of the National tuberculosis
Association to bring about an ex-
animation of every person who is
still feeling the after effects of the
Tau. ~ He pointed out that that
disease in many cases developed dor
mant tubercular LESSONS and changed
incipient cases to active ones. He
appealed for support of the Red Cross
seal campaign, saying that part of
the money will be used in anti-tuber-
culosis education throughout the
State.
