WASHINGTON, D. C, e B Ce S e e e e L L N e s e R EARLY DIAGNOSIS DRIVE 0 BEGIN Mrs. Roosevelt and Medical Leaders to Take Part in Public Meeting. Mrs. Franklin D. Roosevelt and na- tional leaders of the medical profes- slon will participate in the launch- ing of a Nation-wide “early diag- nosis campaign” of 2,000 affiliated tuberculosis associations of the United States at a public meeting in the United States Chamber of Commerce Building tomorrow evening. Mrs. Roosevelt will contribute a paper on “The Health and Safety of Our Children.” Her talk is to be broadcast over a Nation-wide net- | work of the National Broadcasting | Co. from 8:45 to 9 p.m. Others to Be Heard. Among the speakers will be Dr. Hugh S. Cumming, the surgeon gen- eral; Dr. Willilam Gerry Morgan of Washington, Dr. George C. Ruhland, District health officer, who will dis- cuss the tuberculosis situation in the * * District; Dr. Kendall Emerson of New York, managing director of the Na- tional Tuberculosis Association, and Dr. Francis B. Trudeau of Saranac Lake, N. Y., representing the Amer- ican Sanatorium Assoclation. Dr. Willlam Charles White, president of the District of Columbia, Tuberculosis Association, will preside. The purpose of the campaign, which is to be opened with tomorrow night's meeting, is to emphasize the need for prompt treatment of tuberculosis and to familiarize the public with modern improvements in treatment that have greatly increased the chances for cure, it was announced. Greatest Health Problem. The National Tuberculosis Associa- tion, sponsoring the campaign, pointed out that tuberculosis is this country's greatest public health problem be- cause it kills more persons between the ages of 15 and 45 than any other disease. It causes 75,000 deaths and costs close to $1,000,000,000 an- nually, all of which could be pre- vented if existing knowledge of the discovery, treatment and prevention of infection were more widely ob- served by the public, the association said. Angina Patient Recovering. CLEVELAND, March 29 (#)—Jos- eph Krchmar, 48, who six weeks ago underwent the first operation per- formed on man for angina pectoris, apparently was well on the road to recovery today. * — THESE STYL STARS ARE WEARIN * ...COPIED FOR va BANK BILL HEARING TENTATIVELY CLOSED House Committee, However, May Hear Few Additional Wit- nesses Next Week. By the Associated Press. Hearings on the omnibus banking bill were tentatively closed yesterday by the House Banking Committee with the understanding, however, that a few additional witnesses might be heard next week. On Monday, the committee will be- gin reading the voluminous and highly technical bill for amendment. Chair- man Steagall declined to estimate how long it would be before the commit- tee was ready to present the measure to the House. There were indications that num- erous changes would be made, par- ticularly in the provisions of the| measure strengthening Federal con- trol over banking. Committee Republicans were in favor of eliminating that portion en- | tirely, but had little real hope of | achieving that end. Metal Output Soars.
