CONSTANTTNOPLE. - There Is, Of
course. an American colony in this city
by the sea, and II MouStafa Renal
Pasha could arrange some day to have
these Americans herded onto Galata
Bridge for an official count they'd prob
ably number about 400. They're from
New York. from Mississippi, from the
far West, from Vermont. Some Of them
are missionaries. Others work for to-
bacco companies. Others are with the
American Express and in the diplo-
matte service. And there's a Texas girl
here who sings. and rather terribly in
q shoddy cabaret
Most Of these say they like the East.
They have cocktail parties, tennis. mo-
tor boat cruises and bridge-plenty Of
bridge. American children born here
have Syrian and Armenian nurses and
these children chatter in Turkish be-
fore they're sure Of their English
There Is a cluster Of Americans In
Babek, which Is to Constantinople what
Great Neck is TO New York. Why, it
even has the physical attrsctiveness Of
Great Neck, except that there are no
rich actors around. The Babek Ameri-
cans do their committing on the beau
tiful BoSporous. and the Bosporous to
those who haven't seen the Hudson and
the Palisades Is the worlds most en-
enanting body OF water.
Babek Is smart; quite the place. And
yet rent Is by no means prohibitive.
For q Seven-room. two-story house
which sits regally upon a hill, a young
man from Westchester pays, in Turkish
piasters, the equivalent of $50. The
servant girl, born In Angora, gets o

ity, to reduce their living expenses, to

The bill contains three distinct
features:
First: The creation of a National
Institute of Health In the Public
Health Service under the administrative
direction and control of the surgeon
general, for the special purpose of pure
scientific research to ascertain the
cause, prevention and cure of diseases
affecting human beings. It does not
create any new bureaus or new COM
missions, but utilities existing Govern

enlargement of the Hygienic Laboratory

Second: 1t authorizes the Treasury
Department to accept gifts uncondi-
tionally for study, Investigation and
research in problems relating to the
health of man and matters pertaining
thereto, with the proviso that If gifts
In the sum of half a million dollars or
more are made, the name of the donor
shall be attached thereto.
Third: 1t proposes the establish
ment and maintenance in the institute
OF system of fellowshipS in scientific
research in order to secure the proper
personnel and to encourage and aid
men and women of marked proficiency
to combat the diseases that menace
human health.
The main purpose of the bill as re-
ported is Ito arouse our people to the
imperative necessity and wisdom OF
preventing the innumerable diseases
that AFFECT humanity and of making
life more comfortable and happy by
assuring good health, the greatest of
temporal blessings. THE practical ef-
feet OF the legislation would be to en-
large the work Of the Public Health
Service and to enable it to fulfill a
larger f1eld in public health research.

were century ago. There must be
found means of controlling those dread
diseases. The Ransdell bill will help
to accomplish this"

TINE passage of the Ransdell bill
10 establish National Institute
OF Health IN Washington, D. c.,
Il marks the beginning of a new
chapter in the history of medi-
cine; new contribution by the United
States to medical knowledge of the
most far reaching influence in the re-
lief OF human suffering. A veritable
declaration of war against all the phy-
steal forces detrimental to health on
greater scale than ever before at
tempted, this bill centers in the Ma
tons Capital all Of the countryS medi-
cal and scientific resources for the
combating of disease, and creates in
Washington a clearing house of health
for all the world.
Here, under a commander in chief
will be marshaled the Nations army of
experts In the sciences of medicine.
surgery, chemistry, physics, biology
bacteriology, pharmacology, pharmacy,
dentistry and allied professions, in a
concerted drive to prevent disease by
ascertaining its cause and applving
preventive measures in advance of its
outbreak.
Here in the Nations Capital will be
founded an institution devoted solely
to the study, investigation and re-
search in problems relating to the
health of man, where every available
facility will be provided to aid and en-
courage scientists to combat illness and
to solve the many remaining mysteries
OF disease, and where all medical knowl-
edge and every advance in the promo
ton of human health will be pooled
and correlated for the benefit of man
kind.
Planned on Record Scale.
Here will be begun new researches
in cancer on a greater scale than ever
before attempted; new investigations
into the cause and cure Of infantile
paralysis and heart disease; new studies
of influenza and pneumonia. Here for
the first time the scientists of an en-
tire nation will unite in a mass attack
against the common cold and against
other widespread maladies to which ali
are heir. Here will be made new dis
coveries new and better methods Of
cure and treatment will be found To
replace those now in use, and new and
greater safeguards of health will be
devised.
No institution has ever been founded
anywhere in the world for the COM
batting of disease on so large a scale
and there is no means of foretellina
what may be its eventual benefits to
humanity.
The bill has been termed "the most
forward step ever taken by the Amerl-
can Government" And it affords the
United States "the unique opportunity
to give to our country a new and power.
full weapon for attack on the greatest
problems of maintenance of health and
