PATIENTS GIVEN ADVICE.
Urged to Remain in Government
Sanatoria.

Reports from government tubercu-
losis sanatoria point out the marked
advantage of occupational therapy,
which consists of mental work and
manual handicraft for curative and
diversional purposes. in keeping pa
tients in Institutions until a cure Is
possible. according to a bulletin just
issued by the public health service.
Physicians in charge of such sana-
toria have often been discouraged by
the failure of a large proportion Of
their patients to remain Under treat
ment a sufficiently long period. Many
of the patients leave within a month
of their admission.
Out Of 1872 patients admitted to one
sanatorium, it Is stated 2S3 too oc-
cupational therapy and 129 did not.
OF the former only two patients left
the hospital against the advice of
physicians in charge. On the other
hand, of the 12s who did not take oc-
cupational therapy. SO either deserted
or left the hospital against the advice
Of the physicians in charge. This Is
less than / per cent among the for
mer, as against 65 per cent among the
latter class patients.
The public health service operates
the largest unit now engaged in oc-
cupational therapy and physiotherapy,
over 800 expert aids. mostly women,

Cox Not to Oppose Changes.

Cox does not insist upon the ratih-
cation of the league Of nations and
tions of any kind" Franklin d,
Roosevelt. democratic vice presiden-
tiaf nominee, declared in an address
here today. Senator Harding, he
added, has been trying to create the
impression that the democratic
policy is necessarily. absolutely and
unqualiiedly ratification of the

not SO. and l challenge Senator Hard

called reservations. interpretations, or

nullify its intent. Il am going to

nations.
Attacks senator Harding.
Let US be honest about the posi-
ton of the two candidates on this
most vital of questions. Senator
Harding's utterances so far on this
particular point must indicate one OF
two things: Either an unfortunate
failure to read and understand very
simple and very clear position taken
by the democratic nominee for the
presidency, or else it is a deliberate
and wholly unwarranted effort to
States. l can not believe that SEN
ator Harding would be guilty of the
latter. l must assume that he has
failed to follow the clear-cut position
of his opponent, but no American
voter can determine the true reason
