Dorsey Hager, which is already active

Montana oil industry, with drilling OPP
erations on Vimy Ridge.
Hager Spots Location

White PLAGUE
CURED in HOME
AIM in FUTURE
Will Be Realized Through Ed
ucation, Says Worker in
Association.

That home treatment for tuberculosis
is within the realm not only of proba-
bility but of possibility and that a few
years will see it a reality and not a
theory, was the statement of Miss Jes-
samine S. Whitney, statistician for the
National Tuberculosis association, who
was in the city Monday in connection
with the work of the state association
in laying the foundation for the annual
seal sale, the proceeds of which are
used throughout the United States for
combating. of the white plague.
Work is Progressing
Miss Whitney declared that the work
of the national association has pro-
crossed rapidly from a very difficult
beginning and hat at the present time
there is reason for confidence in feeling
that educational work will in a few
years be so widespread and so well
understood that tuberculosis, like ty-
phoid fever, or any other disease, will
be made negligible.
"As long as the disease exists, there
is need for effort in destroying it."
Miss Whitney said, and added that as a
statistician it was her work and her
conviction to present facts without an
iota of exaggeration. "The prevalence
and results of the disease are stffi-
GENTLY alarming to make it unnecessary
to resort to fancy to scare the public
into steps for prevention" she said.
The year 1921 marked a triumph for
the National tuberculosis association,
Miss Whitney said, explaining that it
was made significant in that the death
rate from tuberculosis reached a 80 per
cent reduction as a result of the II
years effort of the association. With
limited funds to begin it's work, the
association has fought its way upward
until it has become nationwide and in
practically every state has a place in
legislative consideration.
Large Funds Raised
Through the sale of Christmas
seals, which, it should be distinctly I'M
derstood, is in no way connected with
the sale of Red Cross stamps, thou
sands of dollars THAT have been the
public's contribution to the establishing
Of sanatoria, di~spensaries, open air
schools and individual and community
responsibility, have been raised said
Miss Whitney.
Miss Whitney is returning to New
York from Reno, New, where she at
tended the northwestern conference OF
the association, and from Utah, where
she has been collecting data to be used
in the campaign for establishing a
state sanitorium there. While in Mon
tana she will assist Mrs. Sarah Morse,
secretary of the Montana Society for
the Prevention of tuberculosis, In max.

Wrong House Named
in Elevator Story

The Tribune is in receipt of a let
ter from one of its patrons at Waller
in which a correction is suggested. In
a special dispatch TO The Tribune I'M
der date of October II, 1t was stated
that the International Elevator was
shut down for two days on account
of the weighing apparatus being out
of commission. The correction desired
is that the break down was in the
Gallatiu Valley Elevator.
The further statement is made
that threshing is practically completed
through that country and that all five
of the elevators at that point are full
so that it is not possible to make de
livery of further grain until there
is a larger supply of ears for trans
portatiOn.

doned and the various corporate members
will be compelled to fall back upon their
own resources. Such candor is dismal, but
in any event preferable to chcrishing delu-
sions of success.
Tho truth is that the federation machinery
designed to put an end to competitive drives
and to the old methods Of ineficiency and
extravaganza in 3ccking aid for charities
and social betternent bodies has not func.
toned as it's constructors hoped.
Il has been said that the appeal for funds
came in lean times. There have been charges
Of clumsy management.
Whether or not this aspersion can bs
proved is beside the question. The most Sc
rious laxfty is traceable directly to the pub.
lie Of Philadelphia. 49,.
The organizers Of tho Welfare Federation
have labored unsel6shly and untiringly to
establish sensible and economical system
for financing large group Of charities.
But purses were tied when they should have
been opened In some instances narrow
vision was operative.
The present situation places the commu.
nifty in none too favorable light. The
federation warrants greatly increased sub.
stantial support. It is impossible to deny
the excellence of the general principle which
1t seeks to vitalize.

wealthy urban community, long famed for
its humanitarian enterprises. Judge Mar.

4erent sites for the fair in time for 1t to be

vsrtised for and a contract awarded. and
then the printer would have to fit the job

But this Is merely q pretext for prevent.
ing the publication Of the report. The
Aswspapers would print the detailed con-
clusions for the information of the public
Il those who have the report would only
