TUBERCULOSIS ASSOCIATION HAS MEETING “When the National Tuberculosis Association was formed 30 years ago, very little was known about tuberculosis and the theme was to arouse public opinion. Those that began the movement did just that, and people were educated against tuberculosis instead of fearing it. The old slogan at that time was| tight tuberculosis, now it is eradi- cate it. We can drive tuberculosis down to so low a point that the in-| dividual case is conspicious. Whrn‘ that is so we can control it like we| can smallpox. We must not lose in- We must stamp out tuber- ” stated Dr. H. E. Klmn-‘ Frank R culo: schmidt, of the National Tubercu-| losis Association, at the meeting| held in room 108 in the new Terri-| torial Building last evening | Two educational films, “Behind the Shadows” and “Let Our People Live,” were enjoyed by those at- tending the meeting. A committee was appointed to formulate a program for the coming year. Those on the committee in- |clude C. M. Hirst, chairman; Dr. J. F. Worley, A. E. Karnes, Mrs. J. C Thomas, and Dr. W. W.
