friend, Charles T. Akre of the Riggs

have to say with confidence, poise
and effectiveness.
Yours very truly,

If the spot becomes red and slightly swol- len within two or three days, il means that tuberculosis germs are somewhere in the body. The small red reaction area disappears and leaves 10 scar or other effects If lne tuDerculin test Is positive (red and swollen) II means only that nYlng tuberculosis germs are in the body.

 If the test is positive, the indiy- iduaIs chest should be X-rayed to De certain that no harm is beng done in the lungs. If the X-ray. following the tuDercuun test snows any dam age, a careful examination should be made ot every member or the housenold, and ot the individual assOcIaIes with whom he comes ln contact. to learn ii he or she is be- ing exposed to an open case of tu- berculosls.

 Through the provisions of the Social Security Act, a Maternal and child Health Program is being ad- ministered, under the Childrens Be- reau, by the State and Territorial departments of Health. This is a nationwide program fer the health and security of children. IL is en- deavoring to safeguard the life of the child continuously from concep- tion through the adolescent period, bringing security not only for the pre-school child but for all ages of childhood in America.
 "The Public Health Nursing Pro- gram. is carried on in relation with the Territorial Health Department and Medical Associations correlat- ing the program where other nurs- ing agencies are found, such as Office of Indian Affairs, Red Cross, Alaska Tuberculosis Association and so forth.
 "The general objectives of all Public Health Nursing are:
 q. To assist in educating individ- uals and families to protect their own health.
 CD. To assist in the adjustment of family and social conditions that affect health.
 (3). To assist in educating the community to develop adequate pub lie health facilities.
 (4). To assist in correlating all health and social programs for the welfare of the family and community
 Services rendered through Put lie Health Nursing embraces: 1. Maternity Service; by instructing mothers and fathers in maternal hy- giene and infant care and by seeing that the mothers are provided with medical and nursing supervision throughout the maternity cycle 2. Morbidity Service by assisting in se- curing early diagnosis and adequate medical care; supervising nursing for all patients in the home through actual demonstration; teaching some responsible member of the family to give continuous care. We further extend this service to adult and school groups, by holding classes III Mothers Health, Home Hygiene and Care of the Sick and First Aid.
 An endeavor is made to estab- fish a Child Health Center (for sup pasedly well children) with empha- sis on parent education-using the individual child as a text for such information. These services are maue available to children between birth and six years of age. Each child in need of medical care will be referred to it's respective family physician and notice of existing conditions found, will be sent from the center to the physician in ques- 1 tion.
 Perhaps you would like a short discussion on tuberculosis, now that l have explained the type of work our department does. In most cases tuberculosis begins very slowly in childhood and does not cause trouble until one is grown up. How cal one know that tuberculosis germs are in the body? The tuber- culin test gives the answer. This test was first used by Robert Koch, the discoyerer of the germ of tuber- culosis. It has been used for forty years. It is known to be harmless The test is approved by the White House conference on Child Health and Protection, by State and City Health Departments, Tuberculosis Sanatoria and Scientific Medical Or ganizations.

NEWSPAPERS OPINIONS
MUCH TALKEE, LITTLE Do-EE

As everybody knows, every wind from Washing
ton these last few days has borne onward and out
ward the cry, Economy! Economy! ECONOMY!
But like the realistic line in the old negro spiritual,
envy body takin' bout Heaven amt gwine
there" all this talk about economy isn't going to
produce any great savings unless the boys get out
their pruning knives and really fall to. 49,.
There are two kinds of economy that may be
practced One, and the more resaltfui, is to fore
90 expenditures for this and that purpose which
may be entirely desirable in itself, yet costs money,
even much money. That is the harder way to econ
omize. For every governmental benefit withheld,
there are hordes of disappointed beneticiares; and
disappointed benefcares not the meat on
which our political Caesars grow great.
The second kind of economy, however, while it
is small potatoes in comparison with the first, has
the feature of being almost painless 1t consists
merely of turning off the water, of plugging up
rat holes of turning out unnecessary lights and
of spraying for moths. This is the kind of economy
Senator Byrd has in mind when he asks considera-
ton for his bill to consolidate three federal home
mortgage agencies into and to sell on the open
market all Hole mortgages not in default.
Obviously, this couldn't hurt anybody but the
jobholderS who are not needed and Hole Gus
toners who, having been rescued once, are expect
ing the government to keep rescuing them. 1t
would save, Senator Byrd estimates, 24,500,OOO
annually to begin with, which isn't much, as much
goes these days, out is at least start toward all
this economy we have been hearing abOut-Char-
lotte News.
