One-tenth of all those who die in the United States have succumbed to tuberculosis. One- third of the deaths between the ages of 15 and 45 are caused by it. This plague is spread largely by ig- norance, carelessness and neglect. It gan be controlled by systematic, ceaséless effort. The National Tuber- culogis association and its 1,000 af- fliliated state and local organizations are wging a continuour and winning war on this dread affilction.
