Gentlemen:
Since 1911 the tuberculosis death
rate has been cut from 1914 to
90.5 due largely to activities of the
national, state and local tuberculosis
organizations. All tuberculosis work
in Perth Amboy is done by the
workers Of the Middlesex County
Tuberculosis League. They main.
tain two Weekly clinics in Perth
Amboy hospital, visit and advise
more than five hundred cases of
tuberculosis existing in the city, con-
duct three nutrition classes in t
public schools and support the mod
ern health crusade (system of
health habits) in four public
schools.
'They have been responsible for
securing the free admission of froty-
two people from our city 70 Sana-
toria. A larger number of these
people were young people and ~chil-
dren in the early stage of tubercu-
losis who will return to US in a few
months strong and well.
1.-THE enclosed budget shows the
needs of the League for next year.
Perth Amboy's quota is 100000.
feel that this is a small quota
as about half of the work of the
League is done in Perth Amboy.

contribution to a cause which touch

whose only thought is for the m
provement of health conditions In
our city.
