Satic w REPUBLICAN CANDIDATE for UMITED STATES SENATOR IN the effort to discover the- earliest manifestations of tuberculosis In sohool children, several communi ties have set out to examine every school child for the Indications which are revealed by the tubercu lin test and the X-ray In advance of outward symptoms. The tubercu lin test, a harmless procedure, se lects those who are Infected and should be examined with the X-ray. In turn, the latter indicates whether there Is danger from disease or not The Massachusetts Department of Public Health was one of the first to begin such a campaign. Not only did this search disclose children In danger, but In many Instances It led directly to the discovery of an active case In adult members of the same family, from whom the children had been getting the In fection that was preparing them for a similar destiny. One such example was recently described by Dr. Henry D. Chad wick, an outstanding authority on tuberculosis, who bad charge of this work in Massachusetts and now Is developing a aimllar project In the schools of Detroit, Michigan. A ten- year-old girl was discovered with the childhood typo of tuberculosis In a marked degree. "Tht obvious thing to do," said Dr. Chadwlck In reciting this In stance, "was to find the source of the disease and protect her from fur ther Infection. No treatment would avail If she continued to receive further doses of tubercle bacilli. It was doubtful If she could withstand the amount that was already produc ing disease. "The field nurse In the district In which the child lived Investigated the conditions at home and was suc cessful in getting the parents and the two sisters to come to the clinic for an examination. One showed the childhood type of tuberculosis, the other had the adult type, Involv ing the upper third of the right lung. In the latter case there were also Indications showing that the child hood type had preceded the adult type for fit least a year. "The source which had spread the Infection was found In the mother, who had the fibroid type of tubercu losis, which had not been previously recognized. "Case-flndlng methods will lead to a diagnosis of tuberculosis In Ha early and more curable stages. We cannot sit In our offices and expect early and favorable canes to come in for treatment. We must search them out before the symptoms appear that would lead a person to consult a physician. That many seem Im practicable or Impossible. It Is not. We must keep in mind that tubercu losis breeds tuberculosis that one case comes from another and look for new cases In the proximity of old ones." If dwtv. i hi , ii mm J. tl.
