CUMMING FAVORS
CHILD SAN|TAR|UM
SURGEON General and Others
Urge Place to Treat
TuberCuIouS Children.

That Congress would soon establish
a model sanitarium for tuberculosis
children in the District of Columbia
to meet needs deplorably lacking here
for 24-hour treatment service without
which cures were said to be inprob-
able was the hope expressed last night
by DR.. Hugh S. Cumming, surgeon
general of the United States Public
Health Service, and other leading health
authorities who addressed the Monday
Evening Club at the open forum dis
cussion held in the Young Women's
Christian Association Building.
washington sometimes does things
in a big way, but it has no sanitarlum
for its tuberculosis children" DR.. Cum
ming said. Washington is the only
large city in the United States, per-
haps in the civilized world, that lacks
a sanitarium for children.
1--WE have never asked for one until
lust before Congress adjourned last
Spring" DR.. Cumming said. we
should have sooner awakened to need
which most cities, with a more nlghiy
developed popular consciousness OF civic
responsibilities. discover much earlier
in their career"

Cites Other Schools.
DR.. Cumming called attention to the
fact that there are two excellent tuber-
culosis schools in Washington designed
for children not sick enough to be In a
hospital, but able to go to a freSh-air
day school with short hours OF study
and long period of rest.
"These schools should continue to
function as at present" he said. but
they should be allowed to restrict their
pupils to children of very early tuber-
culosis, without fever or in need OF hos
pital care" Both DR.. Cumming and DR..
Hickling criticized the condition. Of these
children and the attitude OF teachers
toward teaching outside the school sys-
tenn.
IT am told" said Dr. Cumming. "that
many of the children attending the tu-
berculosis schools are picked up by a
school bus as early as halp past Z
in the morning and are returned to
their homes late in the afternoon and
that many of these children have fever
and other symptoms of active tubercu-
losis. Many of these children live long
distances from the tuberculosis schools
and must be greatly fatigued by the
long journey to and from school"
Dr. Hickling, in pointing out the need
for a tuberculosis Sanitarium, daclerad
there seems to be "some hesitancy" on
the part of teachers to teach outside the
regular school system and disinclina-
ton on the part of some school author
tiles to teach in hospital.
Mrs Grant, at this point, explained
to the club members that the Board of
Education has gone on record as tn
iorsing 24-hour treatment for tubercI-
lous children and declared she believed
teachers would be glad to teach in any
hospital provided
Urge 24-HOur Treatment.
All four medical authorities who ad-
dressed the club agreed that there can
be no effective cure with less than a
24-hour treatment such as only can be
provided in a sanitarium as desired for
washington. Both DR.. Hickling and
DR.. Rogers said that the Board of Trade
and Chamber of Commerce would do
their utmost to help in the passage of

DR.. Conkling, representing the Medi-
