MANY people can scarcely re-
member the days when tubercu-
losis was known and feared as
1.-THE Great White Plague" 1t
might be well if they could, for We
should never lose sight of the fact
that this once most-dreaded of oil
diseases remains a killer still.
1t is true that we have been
able to reduce the number of its
victims very materially during
the past 40 years. We have learned
how to take better care of those
who are not spared.
Deaths in 1870
Ard yet, despite all this, in the
last year of peace, 1910, we'll over
$4,000 people in the United States
died of tuberculosis. And now, as
always in the wake Of war, tuber-
culosis is on the march again.
The greatest safeguard the peo-
pie as n whole can have against it
lies in early diagnosis of those
cascS which do occur. 1t is here
also that those who are afflicted
find their best hope.
"-'he earlier the condition is diag-
messed and treated, the better is the
chance that it can be checked or
arrested. Early discovery means
that less damage has been done,
hence, less time is required for
healing. Thus, shorter period of
disqualification is required and
arrest of the disease is brought
about Mt lower cost.
Public Protection
Early diagnosis also means bet
ter protection for the public. The
patients family and friends can
be kept out of contact and the
spread Of tuberculosis from person
to person lcssencd.
Drs. lsidore ID. Bobrowitz and
Ralph +. Dwork Of New York have
made stud V of 200 patients to
determine the factors that aid the
