FRIDAY, NOVEMBER 10, 1922.


One Of the important but not
generally realized results of the
World War was the impetus
given to the health conservation
movement. 1t may seem some
what anomalous that a connic,
in which nations appeared to be
trying TO kill Off as many human
beings as possible should give
rise to intense interest in the
work Of preserving life and build
ing up strong, healthy physiques
but this is a fact.
There never was time when
SO many different organized
agencies were ut work fighting
disease and spreading knowledge
OF how to get we'll and keep well
as at present. a representative
OF the, National Health Council
estimates that at least 10,000,00C
person throughout sthc world arc
sick all tho time. There are
about 35,Q00,000 deaths annually,
Students OF the subject believe
that ,sfour-6fths of illnesses are
prcventable. and the keynote 'oi
modern medicine and the numer-
Gus organizations mentioned is
Prevention.
Cooperation in international
health work is to be the winning
factor in the war on disease, and
it is now recognized that nation
al efforts without this co-opera-
ton can accomplish little. Epi-
detnics have 4 way of leaping
over national boundaries and
even over oceans. as was shown
in the last outbreak OF influenza
in Europe which invaded our
country.
Leaders in the tight are the In
tctnatioual Health Board of the
Rockefeller Foundation and the
League OF Red Cross Societies.
The Epidemic Commission OF the
League OF Nations also has done
good work in combating typhus
in Poland. Russia and Rumania.
When il is stated that the eXpec-
fancy OF life in New Zealand IS
60 years. whereas in America and
Great Britain it is only Ia and in
India 25, the immcnsity Of the
task OF the health crusaders is
better appreciated.
