INDUSTRY STEPS in
BY BERNARD S. COLEMAN

If we focus the spotlight of retro
spection on public health progress
since the turn Of the century we find
that 80 years, approximately one-half
of the ordinary persons lifetime, have
elapsed since the advent of the or
ganized fight against tuberculosis.
The struggle has been dramatic with
all the attending excitement, encour-
agement, optimism, exhilaration of
groups, agencies and individuals par
ticipating in it.
Many gains have been made. Tu-
berculosis is being routed rapidly from
its strongholds, dropping from it's po-
sition of prime Importance as the lead
ing cause of death during the decades,
but it still takes it's greatest toll among
young men and women between the
ages of Is and as at time when they
are supposed to be of greatest service
and usefulness to themselves, their
families, and to the community. Within
these age limits tuberculosis occupies
first place as a cause of death, and is
therefore basically problem of the
working man and woman.
tuberculosis may be termed dis
ease of industry. 1t is the outstanding
chronic disease Of industrial workers.
II c+ril,oe ,,aa,,lo x.tbay +baxy aro IN tho
period of their greatest industrial pro-
ductivity. How is industrial manage
ment meeting the challenge and what
is it doing to maintain the health of
its workers with special reference to
this communicable disease?
Since the passage of the first state
compensation law in 1911, industrial
medical services have been established
in thousands of plants throughout the
country to provide for the health of
the industrial worker.
Modern industrial management pro-
vides physical examinations of appli-
cants for employment, periodic health
examinations of employees, efficient
care of all industrial injuries and oc-
cupational diseases, first aid and adj
vice for employees suffering from non
industrial injuries and illnesses while
on duty 1t provides medical and en-
gineering supervision of plant santa
tion and Of all health measures for
employees.
Industry and the community will
rise to the occasion and not wait until
the person has become i'll, but will
seek him out before illness and mani
fest disease set in. Enlightenment and
education of employe and employer
will bring this about. The national,
state and local tuberculosis associa-
tions supported by the sale of Christ
mas Seals aim to provide for the dis
semination of this basic information
and encourage the development and
use of modern methods for the control
Of tuberculosis among industrial wage
earners.
