Atlanta, Ca.. April 28.—-Dr. Kdson
W. (Hidden, superintendent of the
state tuberculoppi' sanitarium at Alto,
an institution now under the djrect
supervision of .(the state board of
health, called on Governor Dorsey to
day, In company with Dr. T. E. Aber
crombie, to *soii83 the present and
future of that institution. '
Thera hns been quite a| considers
bib development and Improvement at
Alto since the old board was abol
ished and the direction placed in the
hands of the state board of health, but
the demands tor such an Institution
In the state are so heavy and the fa
cilities so Inadequate it has seemed
essential that some Immediate defi
nite steps be taken to bring the two
nearer together. Today's conference
was especially for the purpose of try
ing to git payment through the treas
ury of the now past-due appropria
tion for that Institution, without
which It Is wholly unable to continue
Its work.
iDr. Glldden has prepared a report
showing that, out of the total popula
tion in Georgia of 2,895.832 the total
death; from tuberculosis last year, as
far as reported, were 2,543; whiten
949 and colored 1,649.
The state Institution St Alto lias
provision solely for % white patients,
and those extremely limited, there be
ing only ninety-five beds. > The negro
sufferers from the malndy are wholly
unprovided for.
H Is shown by the superintendent
that the tuberculosis invasion Is great
er In Georgia, on a basis of 14.2 per
cent on the populatlob, than In any
state or subdivision of country any
where in the civilized world, except
China: moreover, that the percentage
of deaths in Georgia if greater from
tuberculosis than from any other dis
ease. '!
InJ his prepared data Dr. Glldden
sayst c "Very little can be done to
solve the tuberculosis problem In
Georgia until a larger state tubercu
losis sanitarium Is provided, which
will take care of both whites and
blacks. We will ask the state legists-
ture this year for $500,000 for the con
struction - of such an institution. The
welfare of Georgia citizens demands
more aggressive and more adequate
warfare against tuberculosis. A larger
Institution will be n start In the right
direction.
••Of course, If the necessary funds
sre not provided by appropriation we
can’t provide the Institution; we will
not have the facilities for handling
the.situation In the way existing con
dUlons demand."

ed one of the most outragous whole

the A. O. Chemical Co., Ocllla, Ga..

a 71 I years of * ge nni1 the tether of two
I boys, ages six and eight, and has llv-
1 ed In Ocllla. Irwin county. Ga.. for
the past 22 years, and Is a highly res-
1 pected gentleman by all who know
t him. Mr. Dlsmukes was represented
so conclusive against him. there was
nothing else for the Jury to do but
find him guilty of murder In the first
degree. It was not known at the time
the Jury was selected that each Juror
had used his deadly preparation call
ed Fly-Flu and finding that Fly-Flu
would commit wholesale murder on nil
kinds Of Insects and germs, therefore
the'Jury was out only 5 minute# on
this case, & verdict being agreed upon
on the first ballot. The verdict reads
as follows; "We, the jury, find the
defendant guilty of manufacturing nml
guaranteeing a stainless liquid pre
paration put up In 12-oz. prescription
bottles called riy-fru which kills flics,
mosquitoes, roaches, bed bugs, ants
moths, germs, etc., und Is sold by all
