TOBERCuLosIs INFECTION IN
 CARRIED THROUGH THE AIR

Because of the great social and fin- ancial importance of the subject, the question whether or not human beings frequently contract tuberculosis by drink ing the milk of tuberculosis cows, caused animated discussion at the medical meet
 ing of the staffs of the state tuberculosis sanatoria at Crescent Beach Monday. Although it was not down on the program as the title of any of the papers it for3-
 ed itself on the carpet from both the
 principal addresses which were 'X-ray pictures of the lungs in cases of surgical
 tuberculosis and leases of children
 crippled with tuberculosis; have they been
 nursed by their mothers or were they bot tie fed?"
 Superintendent John F. O 3risn's X-ray
 studies of his little browning and curing cases at the seaside led him to the con
 clusion that the primary lesion, even in bone cases, was usually at the root of the lung, and that therefore the original infection was air-borne and not food borne.
 And as te the question whether his patients had been fed in infancy with cows milk or with human milk, Dr. O'Brien's investigations, although con fessedly on only a small number of cases. showed that in n per cent. his crippled children had beer nursed by cheir moth
 CTS and that 20 per cent. had been fed in infancy on cows milk only.
 | Doctors Sullivan from New London and 1 Dart from Mantle were among the in- vited guests.
 It was decided to hold The next medical
 meeting of the commission in September | when reports from Dr. William M. Stock we'll of Hartford, and Arthur R. Kinball of Waterbury will be made of the Inter-
 national Tuberculosis conference at Brus-
 sels in July. They will represent the United States and Connecticut at that conference Mir. Kimball $ 2 member of
