 The immediate, though somewhat embarrassed, support of the Amer ican Communist group of the Rus siam German treaty shows the com. plete and unquestioning loyalty of the American group to the Russian party line.
 Their tack now is to demand that the United States take the measures of discrimination and restraint against Germany which the Russian homeland refused to take, at the same time defending Russia for re- fusing to take them.

 PROPAGANDA BASED ON GERMAN TEXTS
 Eager volunteers like Fritz Kuhn of the German-Arnerican Bundl George Deatherage of the Knights of the White Camellia, and william Dudley Policy of the Silver Shirtsl distribute German propaganda ei1 ther directly imported or based or| German publications. Direct con- nection of this type of propagan- dist with the German government has not been so well established.
 Father Coughlin, the radio priest though he has since the declaratios' of war disavowed Nazisrn with Com munism, was not above using in a speech a remarkable set of parallels to a speech of Nazi Propagandist Goebbels, whose "uiNortunate sifn- ilarity" Coughlin ascribed to . con-| mon source.
 German radio broadcasts to thd United States have been frequent aimed especially at people with q German background. From ''far| mair received as a result, Q largo mailing list of potential Nazl sympathizers has been set up ir' Germany.

ent than formerly is still one of the
most frequent causes of death among
young adults. 1t strikes at the age
when life has it's greatest economic
value and frequently strikes down
the mother or father when most
needed in the home.
Another reason for spending money
to fight tuberculosis is to protect our
selves from other and much greater
expenditures for hospital care and re-
lief to mitagate the ravages of the
disease. A few years ago I estimated
that on behalf of Montgomery County
five times as much was spent by
public authorities for sanitorium care
and for family relief as was spent for
strictly preventive health work.
Finally, the success of the Federal
program to control tuberculosis in
cattle is further evidence that human
tuberculosis prevention is worthwhile.
There are very few counties, probably
not over a dozen, out of the country's
3071 which have more than half of
one per cent of the cattle reacted to
tuberculosis. In most places the
amount spent to control bovine tuber-
culosis has been many times that
spent to protect man. No wonder the
number of human reactors is still
about so per cent.
One trouble in our tuberculosis
campaign is that the deaths come
here and there with little public at
tention and little realization of how
great the toll is. If the deaths of one
year came all at once in dramatic
way, the incident would arouse pub
lie indignation like that caused by the
Rockville grade crossing bus ac-
cident. Yet the deaths in that tragedy
were only two-thirds those taken by
tuberculosis each year.

In the five preceding articles have
explained that the Christmas seal
money is used to finance diagnostic
chest clinics, X-rays, public health
nursing service and school tuberculin
testing programs. All of this is
strictly prevention, which is service to
detect tuberculosis in the early stages
and therefore prevent it from pro-
crossing to advanced and incurabls
stages. It is also service to prevent
the spreading of infection from the
sick to the well. The fact that tuber-
culosis is an infection and cannot de-
velop within the body unless intro
duced from the outside is a reason to
encourage US. 1t means that once we
get infection out of a community we
will not have to keep up preventive
work.
There are other good reasons why
the spending of money on tubercu-
lcsis prevention is worthwhile in
vestment. One is that intensive tu-
berculosis programs carried on in
other places have demonstrated i'm
pressive decreases in disease. Some
have been as much as so per cent in
ten years. Another reason is that this
disease even though much less prevail
