propaganda will be helpful to the
South if our health authorities can be
made to realize that malnutrition is
the great predisposing cause of many
diseases, including pellagra and tuber-
culosis. A campaign Of educstion for
every family to own a nlilch COW and
have garden will help reduce the
death rate. The people of the South
should also continue the fight on
malaria and hook worm until they
have been entirely eradicated.
This unfavorable advertising should
also make physicians realize the i'm
portance of reporting the deaths,
births and diseases that occur in their
practice. When all the Southern
states are in the registration area"
when no one car doubt our vital and
mortuary statistics, it will be long
step toward overcoming the deep
rooted conviction in the minds of the
people OF the North and West that the
South is unhealthful. The progress

by the enthusiasm, of Goldberger.
General Cumming has been too busy
to make a careful investigation OF
the crude experiments Of Goldberger
and has. accepted the half baked pro-
nouncment that pellagra is due sole
ly to an unbalanced diet. No one
doubts Goldberger's honesty of pur-
pose, even though many do not accept
his conclusions regarding the etiology
of pellagra. Therefore, all those who
have been responsible for the SANDER
that the South is famine and plague
stricken have been sincere, but it will
take years to undo the harm that the
Southern states have suffered fro.
such unfavorable advertising.
The vigorous denial by the South
ern health officers that famine eX-
lists and that pellagra is increasing,
or that it is prevalent to an alarm
ing extent anywhere in the South
will help to dispel the Islander, but
there should be systematic effort to
give to other sections of the country
the facts regarding the health condl-
tons in the South. If the good people
in the North and West knew that
there are less than 10000 cases of
pellagra among the 35,000,000 people
living in an area of more than 1,OO,-
900 square miles they would realize
that pellagra is comparatively rare
disease in the South. If they knew
that there is not the slightest chance
for another epidemic of yellow fever
in any Gulf port, and that malaria
and hook worm are negligible dis
eases in all but few localities in the
South, and that the death rates OF
the whites in the South are lower than
the white death rates in the North,
many of them would move their fami-
lies to the South where cheap lands
fertile soil and balmy climate Of
fer the greatest advantages to, the
farmer. If these facts were known in
New England the cotton mills would
come to the cotton fields, and if they
were known in other sections of the
country our mineral and other indus
trial resources would be developed in
a way that would amaze the world.
The South's Opportunity
1t is to be hoped that the good
which is said to come out of evil will
IN rhis case result in the well direct
Ell e.:, 1T to teach the people II other
sections of the country that men, wo-
mc,. md chiidr2;, can enjoy a. good
health, and do more work and make
more money, in the balmy climate OF
the.South than they can IN any other
section of thS country. General Cor
gas proved in Cuba and on the Cana:
Zone that the white ,nan can live and
accomplish as much in the tropics az
in colder climates. He predicted that
with the elimination of tropical dis
eases the future centers Of industry |
and population would move to the
tropics. Agricultural and industrial
development must first come to the
temperate zore ard these and many
blessings will come to the South
when the living conditions here are
known to the millions now living III
less favored climates.

guided men is that we should keep
