for a short period cases of an acute
nature such as injuries and other
emergency cases this because it
would bring hardship to transport
such cases over mountain roads to
distant general hospitals.
For years the development was
slow though marked in every stage
by a demand for more accommoda-
lions than could be supplied. Each
year saw something new in the way
of wards or cottages and the usual
auxilliaries.
Kind Thoughts Construct
The Kula S~anitarium has been men
toned as "the organization of a kind
thought" This is well manifested in
the manner of its building. In the
main our wards and cottages their
equipment and the equipment of our
scientific laboratories as well as
start in live stock for the farm have
been derived in the form of gifts and
donations, both private and through
public drives and from corporations,
all of which denotes the manifesto
tion of a material interest in the sub
ject of tuberculosis on the part of the
people OF Maui.
From a beginning of 81 patients
treated during the period 1910 TO 1912,
the yearly totals have increased TO
295, the total number treated during
the last fiscal period-June 80, 1921
to June 80, 1922. No one dreamed in
the early years of the institutions
existence that a total of 47,311 hospi-
tai days would be reached ever in its
history, but such is the event, and by
the signs exhibited during the months
elapsing since June of the present
year, this number will be exceeded
during the present period.
When we consider the results OBJ
tanned in the treatment of those ad
mitted, we excite the interest of every
one. And here again comes the usual
qualifying statements which must be
considered before impartial conclu-
sions can be drawn.
Patients Delay Giving Up
1t is necessary to understand that
the vast majority of the patients ad-
mitted to such an institution as this
are suffering an advanced form OF tu-
berculosis. 1t is a well known fact
that with the very fewest exceptions,
an individual afflicted with tubercu-
losis in its early stages, a be healed

observation at the end of the period.
Under the classification "non-tubercu-
losiS" cases there were treated in all
Al patients. OF this number, % were
discharged cured or improved, while
Z died, leaving 6 to be carried into
the present period. We thus carried
into the new period a total of 1872 pa
tents of all classifications.
1t is encouraging to see an increas-
ing number of cases admitted under
the classification of tuberculosis sus-
poets" This class represents pa
tents who have symptoms or groups
of symptoms which lead to a suspi-
cion of tuberculous disease. In the
usual course of events the private
practitioner does not have the time
nor the facilities for the proper OBJ
servation of these cases and ii is al
most impossible to determine during
a brief office examination whether or
not such patients are i'll with active
tuberculosis. Where it is possible for
such an individual to pc admitted to
an institution devoted mainly to the
investigation of this disease "a more
satisfactory result could be obtained.
1t is a well known fact that tuber-
culosis can initiate in its various
symptoms a large number of other
ailments. and a positive diagnosis of
active tuberculosis disease, in many
cases, cannot be made until the pa
tient has been under observation for
an indefinite period. During the so
journ of the patients termed "sus-
poets" they are subjected to the usual
sanitarium regime.
Often Last Resort
Relative to this class of cases, it
must be mentioned. of course, that
they are in the minority as the eco
nomical status of the majority pre-
cludes their leaving an occupation
for any length of time while their
symptoms are so mild that they are
not considered really i'll. In the main

they are too weak and sick to work.
Regarding the "non-tuberculosis'
cases referred to above, this number
includes those of an emergency ma

sufficiently to allow him to lead a
well nigh normal life and that in the
main, a persons chances for arrest
ment of disease are about indirectly
proportionate to the amount and &C
tivity of his disease. There are other
factors, such as resistance to the di-
sease, and the type of v%irulence mani
tested by the particular infection
which the individual harbors, but it
is reasonably safe TO say that a man
with advanced and active tuberculosis
is not going to enjoy the same chance
of recovery as the n with a lesser
degree of involvement.
Now when it is understood that this
institution refuses no east because of
type o. degree of disease, ii can well
be understood that a preponderant
number of the cases admitted and
cared for are very i'll persons. There
are many reasons for this state of
affairs, and to go into them would
take more space than is allowed for
such an article as this is intended TO
be. 1t would necessitate a considera-
ton of many factors which influence
our very civilization. | would like
to state, parenthetically, that as u
intelligence anu OUT grasp
of the fundamental reasons for all
great physical, mental and moral alb
normalities besetting our course to-
wards a fairer and happier existence
becomes hrmer it may not be amiss
here to enter a reminder that the
study of the ways and means of com
batting tuberculosis in all that the
subject implies is certainly in order,
Thus subject most assuredly affects
every citizen of the community, either
directly or indirectly.
Results Really Count
The total number of cases under
observation during the period June
80, 1921 to June 80, 1922 was 295. Of
this number, 226 were cases of tuber-
culosis. During the year there were
20 tuberculosis cases discharged as
apparently arrested; 10 as quiescent
and 4 in which the disease was pro
gressive, while "a died. There were
11S cases of tuberculosis remaining in
the institution at the end of the per
Tod. OF the 295 cases treated, there
were 2S classified as tuberculosis
suspects" OF this number, 20 were
discharged as having no evidences of
active disease, and s remained under

.HOUS|NGLACK
AFFECTS TENTH.
0FPOPULAT|ON
Serious Congestion Called Real
Menace to Health by
Physicians.

The shortage of a million and a
half homes which exists in this
country means that approximately
one-tenth OF our population is in
adequately housed. writes o. Z.
Sovereign, general manager OF the
Aladdin Company.
Families are doubled UP. living
in quarters scarcely large enough
to comfortably and sanitarily house
one family, and although home
building throughout the country has
gone forward on a tremendous scale
in the last year and a half, we have
not as yet begun to build homes In
the great numbers which are neces-
sary to give real relief in the house
shortage crisis.
Perhaps no single feature illus
trates 30 forcibly as the record OF
marriages In this country in 1920,
when 100000 couples were united
in matrimony.
Yet during that period there were
but 10000 homes built; with the ex-
listing shortage this left 100000
newly married couples with no place
in which to establish a home.
This means you will find them
throughout the country doubled up
with mothers-in-law and relatives,
occupying furnished apartments or
living in hotels.
Medical authorities are justifiedly
alarmed over the way this conges-
ton menaces public health. Serious
students in welfare work are agreed
that this condition is breaking down
our morals.
Even those people who are ado
quately housed are being gouged for
exorbitant rents which eat up such a
large margin of earnings that there
Is little left for other real necessities.
The Allad n Company, which is the
largest home building concern In the
world, has made a very careful study
of the housing shortage throughout
the country, and am convinced that
this problem is today the biggest fac
tor in social, political and economic
unrest.
You cannot possibly have content
ment unless It emanates from The
home, and how. therefore, can YOU
have this when there are one million
and a half homes short?
Our company realizes that when
home building gets under way on the
tremendous scale wnlCh II must TO
relieve the shortage the demand for
building materials and homes will be
the greatest we have ever known.
We have, therefore, enlarged our four
American mills.
To operate these mills to capacity
we need 0,00O, 900 feet OF lumber a
year. These are bewildering numerals,
and perhaps they would be better un-
derstood If say that this is enough
lumber to build a one-inch boardwalk
two feet wide clear around the earth.
In the average home there is only
approximately 10000 feet Of lumbec.
This 8 the amount purchased by the
individual building his home.
In other words. our company's buy
ing power and requirements in the
building material field are 10000
times greater than is the individual
who is buying material to put up a
single house.
This same ratio applies to every
thing that goes into the home.
1t explains why in 1920 we built
over per cent of the houses erected
in this country.
