Newsprint Limited
To rs Pct. OF al Use
lcontlnued from First Paael

The order provides for adjust
ments for certain increases in net
circulation in 1942-not 1948-over
1941.
The Canadian government, which
had guaranteed $4,000 tons month
ly to the U. S., last week announced
that increased production would
provide at least 100000 tons. al
though private newsprint sources
said the estimated increase was
over-optimistic.
The War Production Board has
that all additional sup
plies of Canadian newsprint over
the original guarantees would be
purchased by the U. S. government
as a backlog against 1914 short,
ages.

would be continued pending a Con-
gressional decision on the Admin

Officials said the current, above
average meat allotments for civil

slaughtering, would continue with
only small changes until spring
when consumption will be forced
downward by higher ration point
values.
In an attempt to conserve some
of the currently abundant supplies

tuberculosis Fought
Throughout Delaware

microscopes Ga type of X-ray
for examining the chest for signs
of tuberculosis) are located at the
first five places. The three ma
chimes located in the boards down
state by the Delaware Anti-Tuber-
culosis Society clinics were pro-
vided through the sale of Christ
mas seals. so the purchase of these
gay little seals is a real contribus
ton to public health in the state.
The X-raying of high school stu
dents is another public health pro-
ject financed by the sale of the
society's seals.
lii Cases In State
To date this year there have
been 144 cases of tuberculosis re-
ported TO the State Board of Health
as compared TO 1872 cases reported
in the same period last year. This,
however. does not represent the
entire number of cases in the state
for there are. no doubt. many early
unrepOrted cases among those who
have bee min contact with persons
having the disease. \
Case Finding j
The State Board of Health's Di-
vision of Public Health Nursing
puts stress on the program of "TB"
case finding and control and the
staff. last year. made a total of
2.975 home visits for these pur-
poses. The former is to interest
relatives or others living i'm a
house with a tuberculosis patient
to come to a clinic for examination
to determine whether or not they
have become infected with the dis
ease The nurses explain that ear
ly examination and treatment
greatly increases the persons
for recovery. The nurses
also make home visits for the pur-
pose of showing some member of
the household how to care for a
patient if he or she
must remain in the home, and what
to take in order TO
minimize the chances of the con-
taeion spreading to others.
tuberculosis last year in Della
ware took as many lives as pneu-
monia tl3Sl deaths, and was eX-
cccdcd as a taker of life by only
five other causes. namely, heart
disease. nephritis. cancer. cere-
hral hemmorage. and accidental
deaths
2.17O Attend Clinic
There were 2.17O persons at
tending the boards seven "TB"
-linics in 1912. of which l ,057 per-
sons were new cases examined be-
cause the doctor suspected that
hey might have the disease. Four
hundred and forty-nine persons out
