Why DOES GEORGIA need
A LARGER SANATORIUM?
LACK OF ROOM CAUSE OF DELAY
IN ADMITTING OF
PATIENTS
State Of Georgia Loses 100000 As
Result Of Death From
tuberculosis

Because the present Sanatorium has
only 100 beds.
There is at present a waiting list of
60 patients begging that they be admit
ted to treatment. There are seldom
less than 35 on this list.
During the past Is months we have
averaged admission of 10 patients per
month. If we continue to be able to
do this, it will take over 8 months to
reach and admit to treatment the Goth
patient. These months of suffering to
the patient and heartaches for the fam
lily, not to mention the time lost in
curing the patient, and the advance Of
the disease, many cases lose all chances
of cure in three months, The average
time between receipt of application and
admission of the patient during the past
year was weeks.
approximately 5000 patients die of
tuberculosis in Georgia annually. For
every death, it is estimated that there
are 10 other persons i'll with Tubercu-
losis.
Sociologists value human life at 49,
600. If this figure is correct, Georgia
has a loss of 100000 year by reason
of deaths by tuberculosis alone! The
amounts to such a figure as to almost
stagger comprehension.
Georgia is furnishing not single bed
for the care of Tubercular Negroes, and
yet 45% of our population are Ne
groes, and tuberculosis is two or three
times more frequent among the Ne
groes, who are brought in close contact
with the White race as cooks, and SER
wants, and what is more serious, as
nurse girls for our children, and thus
spreading the disease to the White race.
The larger Sanatorium would make it
possible to take care of 100 Negroes and
800 White. 100000 would build a
modern Sanatorium to accomplish this.
The number of patients rejected in
1921 was Sc, some because they were
too far advanced to be benefited by
the Sanatorium as equipped at pres
ent; some were discouraged by the
length of the wait and went elsewhere
for treatment; some died while wait
ing to be admitted. A larger, more
modern Sanatorium would reduce the
number of rejected patients and deaths
There are no accommodations for
the care of children, they cannot be
properly treated under the present
conditions. The new Sanatorium would
be built with this problem in mind, for
it is in children that the disease is
found in its earliest stages, and most
can be done for tuberculosis, both as
a disease and as a problem in Public
Health and Public Welfare.

MAD DOGS.

Inc question Of rabies in our State

Is about double the number in 1919

Muzzling dogs is effective if the rouz.

Georgia's telephone growth last year
also established new records and re-
uuired the best efforts of splendid
organization.
The gross additions to the telephone
plant in Georgia during 1922 amounted
to $2,462,903.38 and 20,654 new tele-
phones were installed. There were 49,
473 disturbances, leaving a net gain
of 4,181 telephones.
There are 10S Southern Bell ex-
changes in Georgia with 97,13l tele-
phones and connecting with 39,34l
telephones of other companies in the
state.
Approximately 100000 local calls
we're handled daily in Georgia and
there were approximately 100000
originating long distance calls during
the year.
Georgia's telephone system contains
about 100000 miles of wire of which
42,242 miles are used for long distance
purposes, and there are 218,924 poles.
The telephone plant in Georgia rep
resents an investment Of 9,479, 1876
and is built, maintained and operated
by 1889 employees whose annual pay
roll is $4,117,166.
These workers all live in Georgia
and most of them are native born.
They spend their wages here at home
for food, clothing, rent, light, heat and
taxes just as you spend your salary.
The plans for the growth and devel-
opment of the telephone system in
Georgia for the next five years are
such that the skill and energy of the
telephone organization will be taxed
to the utmost.

The magnitude of the plans may be
imagined when it is stated that $12,-
724,OO0 of new money will be required
in Georgia alone during the next five
years.
In this state it is estimated there
will be a net growth of 37,S45 new tele-
phones during this period which will
mean the installation of 111,309 new
telephones and the discontinuance of
73,464 telephones.
This general expansion has already
begun. The plans for this year have
been made and the necessary capital
arranged for, though much will depend
upon the ability of the manufacturers
to deliver the equipment and material.
The growth of the telephone system
in Georgia during 1923 will require ST.
100000 in new money, to pay for work
which must be done in all sections of
the state.
1t is estimated that during this year
21,674 new telephones will be installed,
1929 discontinued, making a net gain
of 7,445 telephones for the year.
This accomplishment will give Geor-
gia a total of more than 100000 tele-
phones and the distinction of being the
first state in the Southern Bell Com
pany to pass the hundred thousand
mark.
The telephone workers in Georgia
approach their big task cheerfully, con.
fident Of accomplishing it to your salts
faction.
They are encouraged by your evil
dence of good will in the fair treatment
you have accorded their company and
the consideration you have displayed

Maintenance of Way
Men Get More Money

Detroit, Mich.-Increase in wages
for practically all of its 100000 mem
bers throughout the country has
been asked by the United Brother
hood of Maintenance of Way Employ
es. Icreases have been granted this
class of workers on II railroads and
% other cases have been filed with the
railroad labor board, it is said.
At the brotherhood headquarters in
this city it was stated that a recent
survey showed two out of every three
maintenance of way men to be in debt
because of low wages, that but one in
every seven has bank account and
that half of them are without life in
surance.
During the last year, it is declared,
the average worker of this class spent
$28 for clothing, while 6.3 cents a
meal for each person in the family
was the average food allowance of
the average worker.

II Is only three games old, the race
for the intercollegiate basket ball
league championship promises to be
keener than ever. with Princeton IA
vored to retain It's championship. OF
the three games played, Princeton
won two and Cornell captured the
other. Dartmouth and Columbia were
the defeated teams. Yale and Penn

obstacle Saturday when It vanquished
Dartmouth. but 1t was a tight
squeeze. the game being won by one
indication Of the competition which
Princeton will face in its quest for
another title. Cornell and Pennsyl-
vania promise to give the Tiger Just
as much trouble. IL not more. Yale
and Columbia are not likely to do
anything startling. particularly as the
latter has lost to both Princeton and
Cornell.
Despite the fact that he was on the
losing team in two games. Sam Strom.
the new star at Columbia. is at pres
ent the leading point scorer in the
intercollegiate league. He has a to-
tai Of 80 points for two games IL as
the result OF field goals and 20 from

better than his record of 20 out OF
Al tries.
Art Loeb of Princeton Is second in
individual scoring. with &c points
while Tom Cullen Of Dartmouth and
Mel Dickinson of Princeton are tied
for third with 16. Cullen has played
in only one game. and In that contest
