Tuberculosis Control
 Program Successful
United States Must Continue to Combat Disease
 Warns Surgeon General -I3200O Beds Needed

Hartford, April 6.-So spectacular ly successful has been the tuber- culosis control program in the United States during the last B years that the public is losing sight of the danger that this disease is to people of all ages, Dr. Thomas Parran, surgeon general of the United States public health serv- ice, said last nigth. Speaking over 8 nationwide network of the Ma tional Broadcasting company, Dr Parran emphasized that congratula- tions are not in order as a result of the headway made against tu- berculosis.
 Opp0rtune Time
 Taking as his topic the speeding up of tuberculosis control, pr. Par ran said that an investment made now to speed up this control would be self-liquidating for all time. He added that never before has the time been more opportune to plan for the complete control of this disease.
 Tuberculosis is perhaps our most expensive disease, the maker of widows and orphans, the destroyer of earning capacity and of produc- tive power" Dr. Parran said. "Why should we pass this burden on to our children?
 "A disease that still kills 70,OOC of our people annually and that still ranks as the leading cause of death among people between the ages of IS and 45 is certainly not yet under control" Dr. Parran said There are complacent people who believe in letting problems york themselves out. Though great strides have been made and progress ir the reduction of tuberculosis has been steady, ther care still bar riers in the way which we cannot
The Waterbury Democrat., 1939-04-06

tolerate"
 Dr. Parran spoke in connection with the 12th annual nation wide early diagnosis campaign which is being directed in Connecticut by the state tuberculosis commission and it's affiliated groups through the state. The theme of this years cam paign is Help Find Early Tuber- culosis, out of 10 Who Come 70 the Sanatorium are Advanced Cases"
 "In viewing the tuberculosis sit- uation in the aggregate, it may seem more promising and optimistic than it actually is," Dr. Parran said. "For example, statistics of the National Tuberculosis association tell us that there are now available in the United States about 100000 beds for the treatemnt of tuberculosis. It sounds huge. But statistics tell us also that we should have a mini mum of 132,000 beds-about one third more than we actually have. Even that does not tell the full story, for the beds now available are unevenly distributed. Tn certain areas, the minimum need has been reached and in a few exceeded. But, thre are vast areas, particularly in the south and the southwest, where there is a great shortage.
 we cannot move beds around from one state to another as a housekeeper might shift her furni- ture. Therefore, we really need more than 132,000. If we are to provide adequately for the sections in great est need, W, shall have to establish fully 10000 more beds.
 And these 40,000 beds must be located where they are most needed. Poverty and tuberculosis go hand in hand. We are not surprised to learn, therefore, that new beds are most

 Happenings Of Interest

State Capitol, Hartford, April 6 Rep Hugo Guastaferri, of Wa terbury, was one of those taking part ill yesterdays unsuccessful fights against an unfavorable re- port on bill for constitutional convention to end tn e rotten borough" system. The state, he claimed, could save money if few CT representative were elected, and if these were appointed an abasis of population.
 The judiciary committee has re- ported ulifav0rably on Rep. Mar tin Whalen's bill providing for the pensioning of state policemen after 25 years of service, The committee said it is still holding a similar bill for further consideration.
 The sum of $176,560 for the next two years has been asked of Gov. Raymond E. Baldwin by the commission in charge of the new state home for feeble-minded at Southbury. This is about $30,- co more than was provided by the governor in his budget mettage to the legislature in January.
 Senator George T. Culhane yes- terday succeeded in upsetting an unfav0rable judiciary committee report on 8 proposed amendment to the state merit system act.
 No session of either house or senate will be held tomorrow, Good Friday.
 More speed in disposing of mat ters before the assembly is ex- pected as a result of yesterdays conference between Gov. Baldwin and leaders of the major parties in both houses.
 Though the senate was organ ized in January by the Republi- cans with the aid of the two Socialists, the Democrats have been in control of the upper branch for some weeks. With the aid of Republican senator John Thornhill of Brookfield, the Dem ocrats have won every important vote since the dual job issue came to the fore.

The majority of these isms

These isms are without eX.

Their torch light procession
moved between flanking lines of

displayed except the light-blue and
white emblem of the republic.
1t was the eve Of Argentina S

Mrs. Rubens' Absence
A Mystery in Moscow
BY the Associated pr.s.

BY the Associated Press.
MOSCOW, June 13.-The where
abouts of Mrs. Ruth Marie Rubens
remained a mystery today.
Mrs. Rubens, American convicted
Friday of entering Russia without
a passport, failed to appear at the
United States Embassy Sunday to
arrange papers for a return to the
United States. She presumably was
freed Saturday, the judge in her
case having indicated she would be
released then because she already
had spent 18 months in Jail, the
amount of her sentence.
Her failure to appear at the En-
bassy aroused conjecture in some
quarters that she may have been put
aboard a Soviet ship bound for New
York. In that case she might not
be heard from until she arrives at
Ellis Island, where she would be
taken if she had no passport.
