NEGRO IS ADMITTED
TO STATE SANITARIUM
WITH WHITE PATIENTS
Action Arouses People of Mt. YER
non Who Bitterly Resent
Action.

Mt, Vernon, Mo, Nov. as.-Pa-
tlents OF the Missouri State SAM
forum Tor the treatment of tuber-
culosis are aroused because of the
admission OF a negro patient into the
institution for treatment and white
nurses being required to attend him.
Not only are the inmates of the in
st'llltion enragcd at the action of DR..
}. w. Bruton in permitting the negro
to enter the institution, but they are
joined by the people of this section
OF the state who feel that such an
action is wholly uncalled for and may
result in untold harm to the institu-
ton.
IT IS believed by those who are ad-
vlsed regarding conditions at the in
Stitntlon that the action will have
very bad effect on the unfortunates
VINO are here for the purpose of re-
gaming their health since many of
them are said to have become quite
nervous as result of the admission
of the negro.
"A report has been circulatd among
the inmates of the institution which
IN effect is that those who are dis
pleased with the admission of the
negro may apply at the office and
get their transportation home"
The admission of the negro is ex-
pccted to have 4 bad effect on the
White patients, since in the treatment |
OF tuberculosis it is a known fact that
the patients must not become excited
and must be kept as quiet and con-
tented as possible if they are to re-
gain their health. The great success
OF the institution in the past has been
gained because contentment and a
lite OF ease have 4ccn as much a part
OF the treatment as has the diet and
medicine.
In the event the practice of admit
ting negroes is continued it is ex-
pected that white inmates of the in
stitution will entirely disappear.
The general opinion prevails here
that the negro patient was admitted
more as "fecler" to sec what the
effect will be on the patients and the
people throughout the State.
