I S MAIL TRIBUNE, Medford, Or., Sunday, September 21, 1938 : Doctors Describe Alcohol, TB Link San Francisco -HTB-Mr. E. B. Thode, of Casa Grande, Ariz., assumed office yester day as president of the West ern Tuberculosis conference as the group closed a three day meeting. George M- Shahan, Seattle, was chosen president-elect and will take office next year. Vice President is Lynn F. Woods, Salem, Ore., and secretary-treasurer Edward Prest Pasadena. The conference will meet next year in Colorado Springs. Alcohol And TB The 300 medical and lay delegates were told Friday that alcoholism and tubercu losis are so closely linked that communities must attack the two problems- together. i Mary C. Clark, western rep resentative of the National Council on Alcoholism, said the two ravaging diseases oft en steal each other's victims. Alcoholics tend to contract TB. and tubercular patients often sink into alcoholism, she said. As a result, up to 70 per cent of the patients in many tuberculosis institutions are alcoholics. 10 Times As Many Dr. Frederick Boyes, chief of the San Francisco Adult Guidance center, said doctors at the center find 10 times as many tuberculosis cases among the alcoholics. "There's a mental attitude in alcoholism that makes peo ple slow to do anything about other symptoms, no matter how sever," Boyes said. "The alcoholic doesn't worry about his illness he drinks about it."
