COMBATING VENEREAL
DISEASES
Published by Request of the State
Board of Health
A Free Clinic

This must be wholly or partially
for the treatment of venereal dis
eases. It must be in operation and
well advertised in order that diseased
persons may know Of its availability.
There must be free laboratory exami-
nations (including the Wasserman
test and the distribution of arphena-
mine (salvarsan) free or at cost Soc
ial workers must be available for fol-
low-up work.
Such a free clinic in your commu-
nifty is the center of the venereal dis
ease attack. With its establishment
many persons will, for the first time,
be able to get proper examination, ad-
vice and treatment.
A clinic will serve as searchlight
by which the sources of venereal in
lection in your community can be
sought out and, with the cooperation
of other officials and agencies, attack
ed most intelligently.
Through the woman social worker
lit will enable the health officials to
follow the victims into their homes
and give advice for the protection of
the rest of the family. Because OF
the need to continue treatment for a
long period after the patient ceases
to feel discomfort, it is often neces-
sary to GO after the patient who
| fails to return for these routine treat
ments.
Through the same means, it makes
possible the following up of patients
guilty of continuing to expose Others
to infection through immoral rela-
ltions. Through cooperating agencies
these patients may be assisted to
other means of livelihood or forced
out of business through legal action.
An as educational center the clinic
will distribute literature where it is
most needed and it can most widely
adapt the publicity material to the
local situation.
In time it will be known as bureau
Iof free information Wnefe young meI
and others can go to obtain accurate
information on subjects of sex ant
venereal diseases in place of tn,
lquack literature which has caused 81
many youths needless worry ant
often worse results.
It can be made the place wher'
local physicians assist in treatmen
for the purpose of increasing thei
skill and knowledge in treatment o
Ivenereal diseases encountered anon,
their own private patients. This, il
turn, is an important means of in
lcreasing the total number of peopl
in your city who receive adequat
treatment.

be fought with submarines. tanks
and alrships. the latter equipped
with sprinklers through which gases
and chemicals could be rained down
