Portable Cottages for Isolation of Patients
Aid Fight on Tuberculosis in Jackson County
HEALTH ASSOCIATION
TAKES FORWARD STEP
IN BATTLING PLAGUE
The. flrat of the three portable
znttim for Isolation of tubercular
patients 1 now In use tn Jsckson
county as the latent iorwara stop u
the county's heelth officers In the
far-flung fight against tuberculoma.
The cottagci, designed primarily aa
part of a program to prevent the
apread of disease, will be used by
tuberculosis patients awaiting admit
tance to the itato sanitarium.
Jackson county has the distinction
h.m the first Dlace west of
the Mississippi river to adopt this
mesne of combatting lupercun....
The Initial cottage, which Is a
modification of the Burr cottage,
used extensively In the southern
states, was placed two weeks ago In
the yard near the home of a woman
tuberculosis patient. With the pa
tient occupying the cottage, five oth
ers In the home, some of them chil
dren, aro spared the danger of Infec
tion. One father In Jackson county last
year unknowingly Infected five of
his children. Two axe now In the
state aanltarlum and one la awaiting
entrance.
The portable cottageB have been
adopted by Jackson county to pre
vent such unfortunate occurrences.
The first to be placed In service was
designed and the construction supcr
Tised by Dr. O. I. Drummond. who
recently resigned as county health
Officer.
Hospital Overcrowded
Overcrowded conditions at the
Oregon tuberculosis hospital Inspired
his search for a means of temporary
Isolation of tubercular persons. In
1036 Jackson county had between
eight and ten persons awaiting ad
mittance in the sanitarium. Blnce
construction of the new pavilion the
situation has Improved, but there Is
still a waiting list. . .
The flrat cottage waa financed by
the Jackson County Public Health
association, with Miss Mildred Carl
ton as president, proceeds were ob
tained from the sale of Christmas
Seals and- through the Community
CheBt.
This volunteer organisation Is af
filiated with the Oregon Tuberculosis
association and has aa Its major
activity the control of tuborculoels.
The manual training department
of the Medford high school, L. A.
Mcntzer, Instructor, constructed the
building. Cost was estimated at
1200.
The second cottage, recently com
pleted, was financed by the Klwanls
elub.
Jackson county health workers,
who point with pride to their already
low tuberculosis death rate, anticipate
an even greater reduction through
use of the cottages, pending sanitar
ium care.
The county's death rate In 1930
was 14.5 persons per 100.000. less
thsn half that of the atate of Oregon
and one-third that of the United
States. In 1938 Jackson county's
death rato from the disease was 43
persona per 100,000.
Method Explained
This great reduction waa accom
plished through modern methods of
case finding and constant supervision
and Instruction of active cases. The
active support of the health agencies
by the community, la responsible for
the admirable record.
Mrs. Sadie Orr Dunbar, executive
secretary of the Oregon Tuberculosis
association, after viewing the cottage
wrote her approval:
"When we consider the long wait
ing list at our two state tuberculosis
hospitals and thus resllae the length
of time which patients may have to
wait for admission, I think Jnckson
county has taken a very forward step
"Your patients will be put under
hospital regime weeks and even
months before they are admitted to
the hospital It may mean the sav
ing of life. Itself. Certainly It Is a
floe preventive measure."

here In Oregon." he said. "I Informed
President Roosevelt of It during his
recent visit here and urged htm to
Issue a warrant for Bridges' depor
tation. '
"The labor movement today Is fac
ing the same thing as prohibition.
Racketeers and scoundrels Are bring
ing discredit on It until like prohi
bition It will arouse so much public
opposition that Its cause will be lost.
The labor situation aa It la tn Ore
gon today Is no less ttian criminal
nonsense.
"Oregon farming can't stand an
other Pacific coast shipping strike.
Neither can shipping."
