physically and financially and the al
most impossibility Of securing new

THE COST OF NEGLECT

THE governor of Colorado issued a proclamation Saturday asking
cooperation and financial backing of The state for the work of the
. Colorado antituberculoss association. The organization there
corresponds TO the New Mexico Public Health association, and like
the home association, is supported by voluntary financial assistance.
In his proclamation the Colorado executive stated that tubercu-
losis caused am economic loss of $%500O00y000 in the United States last
year. The economic loss to Colorado, he stated. was %$l6O00O00 an
nually. These are staggering figures of losses directly due to a pre-
ventable disease.
The number of deaths from tuberculosis in both Colorado and
New Mexico is naturally very large in proportion to population. As
the refuge for tuberculars fCm all parts of the world the Rocky
Mountain plateau has a death rate that is far out of proportion. Yet
Il is surprising and shocking to learn the number of sufferers from
tuberculosis in this region, and in our own state, who are not health
seekers" from the humid regions but who m natives or lifetime res
idents and who have contracted the disease here as a result of the
same preventable conditions that bring to us each year our thousands
Of seekers after health. The number Of these home eases is being re-
yealed by the work of the New Mexico Public Health association and
by the state health department. for the creation of which the health
association is responsible. Both agencies are working to overcome
the mfavorable conditions They are doing much more however,
than combat Tuberculosis. They are fighting disease and unhealthy
living conditions of every kind. They are getting results of the ut
most Importance. The work of the New Mexico Public Health asso-
citation is the NEST practical work for the public welfare that is under
way in our state. IL merits the most vigorous public support in or
ganized community effort and in fnancial assistance. It has proved
its worth.

WHEN ORGANIZATION COUNTS

A CCORDING to an Associated Press dispatch in SATURDAYS Herald,
n senator Reed Smoot of Utah viii present a bill as soon as the
4 = senate convenes in December to place an EMBRACE upon foreign
wool for a year The action proposed is radical, but something OF
the kind is needed to stabilize the American wool market and enable
the wool industry to get its breath and to get back upon a firm foot
ing. The industry is not on a firm footing now and has not been for
the past ten months. It is not on any kind of a footing. The indus
try is in trouble, not in New Mexico alone, but throughout the wool
producing states and it needs prompt and vigorous help in getting
out OF trouble.
Senator Smoot is an influential member Of congress- lie is re-
garded AS one Of the leaders OF the senate. But the bill he proposes
will meet with the most stubborn resistance from eastern manufactur-
ing interests and arguments will be presented against it that will APP
peal to certain classes of business and to the country generally SEN
ator SmoOt, standing alone, or as the leader of representatives of
states where wool growing is a dominant industry will have little
chance of success Backed by the organized wool growers Of the Ja-
ton his proposal will have very strong chances of success.
No more striking Illustration of the value of organization has
ever been presented than in the crisis now before the wool growers of
this country. Without the national and state organizations now at
work they would be helpless. Organized as they should be, the wool
growers Of the nation would be able to secure very prompt action for
the stabiizng of the industry.
The importance of organization and organized effort should be
very clear to New Mexico wool growers just now. The executive
board Of the New Mexico Wool Growers association will meet in Al
buquerque next week to determine upon representation in Washing
ton during the coming session of congress, in behalf of special tariff
legislation to protect the wool industry against the flood Of foreign
wool and mutton. II should be possible for this board at the Decem-
Der meeting to make AN appeal that will bring into the organization
as an active member every wool grower in the state. The wool
grower who remains out of the organization now, under the condi
tions confronting him, simply says that ae does not want to be
helped that he prefers to sink Independently rather than to swim
safely out of deep water with organized assistance.

HELP SAVE THE BABIES

livery year 125,000 babies-onetenth of them al-die before they
T are six weeks old.
On December 81, the child welfare board Of the state is to
make.a drive to raise $4,000 with which to complete the purchase Of
abome in Santa Fe and to equip this home as a free maternity hos
pital.
This hospital will provide a free training course for midwivcs Of
the state. II viii save the lives of many babies who die in infancy,
for free treatment aud examination of babies also is 10 be provided.
With this hospital established the child welfare board expects to
be Ia q position to command a liberal appropriation from the govern
ment for the work in this state, provided the Shepard-Towner bill for
the protection Oh maternity and infancy passes at the next session of
congress, as it now seems probable.
For this reason the people of New Mexico should respond to this
call for funds New Mexico has taken advanced steps in child well
fare work. We have IN the department of education, a child welfare
division, that makes a safer country for babies and children of pre-
school age. II seems that everyone should support this latest appeal
for funds 10 establish a hospital that viii enable the state 10 reap the
full benefit Of federal legislation and appropriations that are to come
later. Womanis clubs Of the state have iudorsed the campaign. The
