Association Hears
Of New TB Drug;
Mrs. Barteis Speaks ,
Premature publicity hai raised
the hopes of many before ade
quate information has been ob
tained concerning the new drugs
under investigation for the treat
ment of tuberculosis, according
to Mrs. O. J. Halboth, in report
ing a meeting of the Jackson
County Public Health associa
tion. The reporter referred to a
statement issued to the Amer
ican Trudeau society, the medi
cal section of the National Tu
berculosis association.
The society reported that some
optimism seems justified, she
added, but many important ques
tions cannot be answered with
out further research. The
immediate Tesults of treatment
in human beings is good, but
a much longer period' of treat
ment and observation will be
necessary before it can be de
termined whether or not these
drugs can bring about a com
plete elimination of tuberculosis
germs from the body, the report
added. There is no evidence,
according to the report, that
these drugs decrease the length
of hospital treatment necessary
and the present shortage of hos
pital beds may be, intensified.
So far the drugs are not
known to have any preventa
tive action, and research for
a better vaccine is still indicated
as a more practical basis for
eventual eradication of the dis
ease, the report includes. It is
estimated that there are at least
150,000 cases of active TB in
this country which are not
known to the health depart
ments. An extension of all case-
finding is imperative and must
be remembered that other treat
ments are showing good results,
according to the report.
The meeting which Mrs. Hal
both reported was the health
association's bi-monthly meeting
Thursday, at Girls Community
club. Mrs. John Cotton,-Ashland,
presided.
Another report made at the
meeting concerned problems of
the deaf and hard - of - hearing
child, given by Mrs. B. Brandt
Barteis. Mrs. Barteis received
training at the Central institute
in St. Louis after which she
taught in the oral department
for the deaf in that school for
three years.
Two methods of teaching the
deaf child were compared. If
a deaf person is taught only to
sign, he is limited in later life
to associating with only deaf
persons, since most people who
hear do not understand sign
language. If a deaf child is
taught early in life there should
be no danger in his being a deaf
mute. Mutism is defined as a
deformity, injury or disease of
the vocal chords and is there
fore not necessarily connected
with deafness. The primary pur
pose in training a deaf person
is to help him live normally, the
speaker said.
Two additional broadcasts in
the program sponsored by the
Jackson County Public Health
association and the Jackson
County Medical association, were
announced. They are scheduled
today at 7:30 p.m., when KMED
will present "Hospitals Join
Hands," and on Sunday, March
30 at the same time, with the
subject "What Doctors Have Or
dered."
Persons wanting old American
TB seals for collections should
contact the county health asso
ciation,' it was announced.
Next meeting of the county
health group will be the annual
meeting Thursday, May 15.
