u. S. HAS 65 C0LORED
WOMAN PHYSICIANS
Race Needs Increase of 450 Prac-
titioners Yearly, Survey by
Howard University Shows.

The colored race now has total of
sixty five woman physicians, surgeons
and osteopaths in the United States,
the Interior Department announced
today as a result of compilations
made through Howard University.
There are but five colored women
who practice dentistry in this coun-
try.
The average yearly increase of COL
ored physicians is only sixty three,
statistics collected by the university
showed, while the race actually needs
an annual increase of at least $50 to
take care of the health of its people.
The average number of additional
colored dentists graduating every year,
Howard University officials say, is
sixty-three. while there should be
500. The same condition applies, they
add, to trained nurses, ninety being
graduated each year, although 500 are
needed to administer to the sick among
the colored people.
An interesting feature of the data
collected by Howard University is that
there are more colored physicians and
dentists practicing in the cities of
Washington, New York, Philadelphia.
Cleveland and Chicago than in all the
sixteen southern states where about
100000 colored people live.
