How Can las a Teacher
Best Cooperate To
Reduce e~rculcsis
Among Negroes?
BY Geraldine Rogers
Knoxville College, Knoxville,
Tennessee

tennessee
"The mortality from tubercu-
losis among the colored popula-
ton of the United States is near
ly twice that Of the :rI..te' pypu-
lation." This statement comes
from an essay, Tuberculosis AS
a Disease Of the Masses and How
to Combat It, written over thir-
ty years ago. Although in recent
years the "White Plague" has
been bending its head in semi-de-
feat, and the mortality from tu-
berculosis h as decreased signifi-
cantly in both races, that among
Negroes is still much higher than
that Of the white. According to
DR.. J b. Naive, superintendent
and medical director Of Beverly
Hills Sanatorium, Negroes are
more susceptible to tuberculosis
than white people, and Negro
servants often work with "a
highly developed tuberculosis in
lection "Knox county shows
$50 Negro deaths against SO out
Of every hundred thousand IN
the white population" All Of
these, of course, are not due to
tuberculosis, but tuberculosis
takes its share. How can we as
young Negro Americans, with a
love for our race or a love for
humanity, help our people? How
can we cooperate in the fight
against this dreadful disease
which has so many victims each
year? How can [ as a young
Negro teacher, best cooperate to
reduce tuberculosis among my
people? The aim of this paper is
to enumerate some of the things
that a teacher can do to cooper
ate in the reduction of tubercu-
losis among Negroes
Following the old adage.
"ChaFty begins at home,' the
teacher should first begin with
himself. One should SHOULD in
the sense of ought make sure
that he, himself, did not have tu-
berculosis. With Gods help, and
by closely observing the rules Of
health, he should keep himself
IN as perfect a state of health as
possible, and build up his resis-
lance against disease. The teach
er should enjoy outdoor sports
and love nature, and allow his
pupils to see this (his love for
outdoor sports and nature) seek
ing by his enthusiasm for out-of-
door life to create enthusiasm and
love for it on the part Of the
pupils. He should be cheerful
and enthusiastic, full Of the ioy
OF hving-a true example Of the
doctrine Of health which h e
should attempt to teach.
A working knowledge Of tu-
berculosis should be secured-a
knowledge Of its symptoms.
cause, prevention, and cure. One
should be able to recognize t h e
symptoms Of this disease, should
know something Of the condi-
tlons which cause it and should
know what can be done to pre-
vent it and what can be d
and is being done for its cure

President Theodore Roosevelt, Car
negie, Commissioner MacFarland and
Theodore w. Noyes, president of the
Board of Library Trustees. Upon in
spection of the building Carnegie
authorized additional expenditures up
to $4,000 for It's completion. In a
conversation with the president of
the Board of Trustees Carnegie de-
clared at this time, II have given
this library to Washington, and when
ever branches are established I shall
insist upon the privilege of supplying
the funds. The giving OF public IL
braries to the District of Columbia Is
my province, and you are to let me
know when to provide them" The
sum of 100000 was later mentioned
as the basis for such branch sys-
tenn, but "the proposed donation was
not limited to that amount"
Delay Lost Valuable Sites.
Washington suburban communities
hastened to place their needs before
the Board of Library Trustees many
of them offering to donate valuable
sites for the erection of the proposed
branches. The librarians report for
1903 records II such appeals But
Congress failed to act. no branch
libraries were authorized, no money
was appropriated for their support
The generous offer of Carnegie was
not accepted until eight years later,
and the opportunity to obtain valuable
sites through community or private
gift was lost.
DR.. Bowerman assumed office on
September /, 1904, and Immediately
began to urge the future extension OF
the library through a system OF
branches. A year later Mr.. Noyes
declared: Until the central library
is adequately developed and sustained
the work of establishing branches will
proceed slowly, since it is clearly
unwise at this time and will be In
the immediate future to drain strength
from the central building for the sake
of outlying branches. 1t is highly
desirable, however, that prompt &C
ton be taken to accept Mr.. Carnegie's
offer and to make practical begin

Mr.. Carnegie's death at the expiration
of that period would seem to close
the transaction as far as Mr.. Car
negie's offer is concerned" agreed to
pay not less than $4,000 toward the
construction of the proposed branch.
This offer was accepted by Congress
In q deficiency appropriation passed
June 16, 1921, when $4,000 was ap-
propriated for the purchase Of a site
at Seventh and D streets southeast.
Before the completion Of this build
ing the Carnegie Corp. of New York,
on May 26, 1922. appropriated ''the
sum of $780, 600 for the erection Of a
branch library building for the City
of Washington, to be erected in the
Mount Pleasant section. This offer was
accepted by Congress with little delay
(February %, 1929 and $25 900 was
appropriated for the purchase of the
site at Sixteenth and Lamont streets,
offered at considerable reduction in
its real value by Mrs. John B. Hender-
son. In the meantime the Southeast
ern branch was opened on December
8, 1922, just II years after the first
branch at Takoma Park. The Mount
Pleasant branch was opened on May
Is, 1925.
Carnegie grants to libraries had
practically ceased long before this time,
and in November, 1926, the Carnegie
Corp. notified Dr. Bowerman that "in
accordance with its policy elsewhere.
no funds for additional library build
ings in Washington would be avail
able" In his letter transmitting the
decision DR.. Keppel observed that

-four buildings have been. erected
from Carnegie funds, and have proved
their usefulness in different parts of
the city and different social environ
ments. In the light of this demonstra-
tion, 1t ought not now to be difficult
to secure funds from other sources for
additional buildings as they are
needed"
DR.. Bowerman then prepared o
"five-year building and extension
program" 1925, later amended by
"the extension program of the Pub
lie Library OF the District Of Colum-
bia, 1932-l94e," upon which succeed
ing efforts for library extension have
been based The demonstration
afforded by Washington's share Of over
$50, ,000, 900 given by Carnegie was sue
ceSsful, and although the struggle has
been great. Congress has continued to
appropriate sums for the extension OF
the Public Library through additional
branches in the Northeast section and
in Georgetown, supplemented by five
small, or minor, branches in more out
lying sections.

ming in the branch library work, to
the end that the necessary funds may
be set apart to meet the cost OF
building these branches, whenever
from time to time in the future they
may be needed"
Takoma Park was selected as the
location of the first branch library
because Of its remoteness from the
central building and the donation oi
an excellent site by public-spirited
citizens. A bill authorizing the ac-
ceptance Of Carnegie money for the
branch was enacted by the Senate
in 1905 but died in the House Dis
trict Committee, was again presented,
passed by the Senate and lost in the
House Committee.
The bill was not passed until 1910
whereupon Carnegie promptly allot.
ted $4,000 for the erection Of the
building. The branch was opened or
December 16, 1911.
Following the opening Of the Ia.

Bowerman initiated a vigorous cam.
paign for the extension of the public
library system in the District ant

poned year after year.
Fresh Start Made In 1917.
In 1917 "fresh start on the de-
velopment of the branch library sys-
tenn" was made by proposed legisla-
ton for branch in Southeast Wash
ington, and complete Report OF
Branch Library Development" was
made by the librarian. Wartime activ-
tiles intervened, however, and 1t was
not until 1919 that the bill for the
Southeastern branch was again intro
duced in Congress. The Carnegie
Corp. of New York, although stating

Local Library System.
In the District of Columbia the
public library system consists Of a
central library, five branches, five sub
branches and an Office annex. AL
are supported by congressional ap-
preparations as part of the budget
for the District of Columbia. Since
Carnegie gifts to Washington were
discontinued in 1926 two major
branches and the five sub-branches
have been added to the system
through the efforts of Dr. Bowerman
and local citizens associations in their
appeals before Congress.
The Public Library of the District
of Columbia was established by act
of Congress June 8, 1895, and i'm
mediately absorbed the old incor-
porated, Washington City Free Library.
1t was located at 1926 New York
avenue in building formerly pri-
vate dwelling. Congress on March 8,
1899. passed an act authorizing the
erection upon Mt. Vernon square
in the city of Washington. in the Dis
trist of Columbia, building for the
use of the Washington Public Library,
with funds to be contributed by
Andrew Carnegie" The total cost
of the building, including book-stacks
and heating and lighting apparatus.
was limited to $780, 900 with the stipu-
lation that the building must be
thoroughly fireproof."
However, on April ID, 1899, Carnegie
added $4,000 to cover the cost of
furnishings and other expenses and
in September of the same year an
other $4,000 ito meet an extraordi-
nary increase in the cost of building
materials which threatened to prevent
the execution of the accepted design
of the library with the money avail
able in the manner most creditable
to Mr.. Carnegie, and to the National
Capital"
The new building was formally pre-
sented to the people of Washington
on January 7. 1908, with elaborate
exercises including addresses by

Thus, the grower would receive
processing tax returns on the basis
of what. he planted, not on what
he harvested. II. the harvest were
larger than estimated at time of
planting, however, he would re-

The association directors pointed
out that the government collects
a. sugar import tax many times

that it can afford. to encourage a.

Grease the Big Horn county acre
age allotment substantially in case
plans materialized for construc.
ton of a sugar factory at Hardin.
Directors believe such an increase
would be possible because there isl
a considerable acreage unallotted
and the United States has never
nroduced as much sugar as the
Jones' Costigan law allows.
There has been a strong move
ment in Bio Horn county to bring
a factory to Hardin. Various ei-
forts to encourage the Holly Sugar
corporation to build there have
proved fruitless 50 far, one di-
rector from that district said. and
there is now a movement on foot
among growers to build their own
factory. Big Horn county grew
this year about $500 acres OF sugar
beets.

and processing companies dis
