and a half years.
The fact that tuberculosis has
many characteristics in common
with heart disease, diabetes, arthri-
tbs and other chronic diseases and
that many of the procedures which
have been developed in the last
several years in tuberculosis con-
troll work also are applicable to
control of other long-term illness
es led to the decision to combine
the two operations, MI. Ewing
said.
The Division of Chronic Disease
was established by the Public
Health Service in June 1949 to de-
velop methods for meeting the
needs of the chronically i'll. In an
effort to work out chronic disease
control programs which could be
adapted for State and local ap-
plication, the Division has carried
on demonstrations and pilot studies
in the control of diabetes, heart
disease, obesity and high blood
pressure, glaucoma, and in the re-
storation Of chronically i'll patients
to normal living. A recent function
of the Division has been the adj
m~inistration of financial grants to
