Ohio Public Health Associa-
. ton Gives Advice To It.
B. Sufferers
CLIMATE HAS LITTLE
TO DO WITH A CURE
Freedom From Worry, Cheer
fulness, Fresh Air and
Sunlight Best Aids
fpY The ASSOCIATED pREssl

COLUMBUS, June 21-Don't go
west for tuberculosis without plenty
Of money.
This is the advice of the Ohio Pub
lie Hoplth association in a pamphlet
just issued which is intended to
check the INDECENT migratory con-
sumption problem which is said to be
acute in western and southwestern
states. The warning in tie pamphlet
Is as follows
There is little light work to be had
migrate, and living costs are higher
than in Ohio.
II you should break down, there are
no public sanatoria for free care of
non-rosidents in these health eli
mate" states. They do not have
enough hospitals to take care of their
own tuberculosis sufferers.
TO be stranded hundreds of miles
away from friends faced with power
Ity, forced to hunt employment too
soon, and worrying about home and
family means killing every chance for
recovery.
A tuberculosis person needs rest,
food, fresh air, peace OF mind, and to-
he under the care of competent ply
sician and follow his advice.
"F'or years, 1t was believed gener-
ally that the only hope for person
stricken with tuberculosis was a
change of climate" says the Public
Health association.
This was before we knew that eli.
mate, after all, has very little to do
with the cure of tuberculosis; that
the disease can be cured in Ohio. Illi-
nois, Indiana and Michigan just as it
is cured in Colorado, New Mexico,
Arizona and California.
"kolaxation, freedom from worry
fresh air. sunlight, good food, plenty
of sleep and cheerfulness at home
will be of much more value than
change of climate, unless one has
plenty of money.
4 Treatment in properly conducted
sanatorium offers the most ideal con-
ditions for the recovery from tubercu-
losis and gives the greatest assurance
Of successful outcome"
Fhe pamphlet cites figures to show
progress in the fight against the white
plague and says, "a decline in the
i Ohio tuberculosis death rate of from
! $50 per 100000 population to 80 per
100000 population in the last ten
years may not appear to he sensa-
tiOnal, but 1t certainly is most graf
i flying improvement. 1t means saw
ing of some 100000 lives"

DR.. Mead, Expert on
Land Settlement to
Reach Maui July |

Dr. Elwood Mead California land
settlement expert now in the Islands
in the interests of the Hawaiian
Homes Project will be on Maui July
l, 2 and 3. He will be afforded the
opportunity to look over homestead
ing and agricultural and horticultu-
raj and live stock endeavors as con
Quoted on this Island and near the
close of his stay will meet the men,
bers of the Maui Chamber of Com
merce and others who may be in
terested in the subject of the rehabi-
litation movement on Molokai.
Wednesday morning a letter from
George p. Cooke was received by
Secretary Gray of the Chamber of
Commerce giving the dates of the
proposed visit and less than two
hours later Executive Secretary
George P. Cooke himself put in an
appearance. He had taken the Mau-
ma Loa Tuesday dropped off and Mo
lokai and come across on the Mika-
hala. Plans for the visit of Dr. Mead
and himself on the lates mentioned
were speedily arranged.
OtHST TIdnS Snan9eQ
Other engagements precluded an
earlier coming to Maui by DR.. Mead
and to make the trip at the fixed date
he is foregoing a visit to Kauai.
Though there are irrigated home
steads there, Mr.. Cooke felt that
Maui had more diversified farming
to offer. He arrives two days after
the dinner to Judge Case which it had
been hoped he could attend
Monday afternoon, July 8 there
will be a special meeting of or in
formal reception by the Maui cham
Der of Commerce to meet DR.. Mead
During all the time of his visit acti-
vities on Maui will center chiefly
about Kahului and the Foresters'
Make Happy and it has been decided
to hold the meeting for him in the
Territorial Building for it is felt it
would be impossible to get an atten-
dance in the Chamber of Commerce
rooms at that time that would be so
satisfactory as can be secured at
the Fair Grounds directly following
the horse racing. The meeting will,
therefore, be called for Monday after
noon, July 3, at that hour. DR.. Mead
will take the Mauna Kea from La
haina that night and will sail from
Honolulu on Wednesday July S.
In order to get DR.. Mead to Maui
arrangements have been made to have
the Mauna Loa held until after the
luncheon of the Hawaiian Civic Club
He had purposed coming on the XII
lauea to arrive on Saturday morning
but found all space had been taken
for the Foresters' convention and
Make Happy.
Will Visit Farms
Mr.. Cooke had written to Senator
Harold w. Rice relative to arranging
for DR.. Mead to see agriculture on
Maui and also took the subject up
with Manager II. B. Penhallow of
Wailuku Sugar Company with whom
he lunched on Wednesday.
DR.. Mead has been greatly interes-
ted in what he has seen of the land
possibilities of the Islands, Mr.. Cooke
says and the commission is salts
fled that it will receive suggestions
and recommendations from the visi-
tor which will be of great value as
the development of the project pro-
ceeds.
