Out of every dollar appropriated by the Legislature 51 1/2 cents goes for education; 17 1/2 cents for pensions; 14 1/2 cents for eleemosynary institu tions; 5 1/2 for the enforcement of law; 2 1/5 cents for agriculture; other purposes 8 4/5 cents, and less than one cent for the protection of the people's health. TOTAL STATE APPROPRIATION *9.943,990. fffffff Less than 1% for the protection of THE PEOPLE’S HEALTH. Is that s'osjd business? It must be, our law makers did it in 1919. It probah>/ accounts for the fact that of the 83,000 children born in Georgia each year there are 62,250 left when the fifth year of life is reached to enter the schools. Some of these are deaf, some dumb, some crippled and some blind so that they can never be educated. Many more children on account of poverty brought on by sickness are not able to attend school, while more than 1/3 are defective to such an extent as to be a drag upon the school. The $5,147,399 Is not too much to spend on education, but one cent out of each dollar Is too little to spend on the prevention of these conditions which kill the innocent children and render many others not only unfit for citizenship but in truth a liability upon the state. If the mothers of Georgia, when they come into full possession of their rights of franchise, do not stop the deaths of the inno cent children, then Georgia Is lost, for money Invested in public highways, education, penal institutions and the enforcement of law as has been In the past will never reduce the infant mortality rate. Disease must be elim inated from the home, the parents made healthy. In other words, the pro tection of the public health must be given the same consideration as other functions of the State Government, and the protection of the public health must begin with the prevention of infant mortality if the life of the state is to be conserved. An appropriation of 1.7 cents per acre is made by the state for agricultural purposes. There is appropriated for the protection of the health of each individual in Georgia 8.1 cents. It would appear that the health of an indi vidual was a little less than twice as important as the development of an acre of agricultural land, for the Legislature appropriated twice as much per person as per acre. The average acre in Georgia is assessed at $10.43. There fore the health of the citizen is worth only $19.01 in capital stock ot the State. This is too low a value to place on the health of a citizen. The development of each acre of land is absolutely necessary and the appropriation for agri cultural purposes Is, if anything, too small, bnt the protection of the HEALTH OF THE FARMER IS MORE IMPORTANT THAN THE DEVELOPMENT OF HIS LAND, and the sooner this fact is realized and a common sense value placed on good health, just that soon will the economic loss due to sickness be prevented. WHAT THE SIGNBOARD SAYS The chief argument for the adoption of the Vital Statistics Law now in operation was that it would be a kind of index finger or signboard showing the health forces where and when to strike.

The above graph Is the pointer the first year’s operation of the law gives. Tuberculosis is the chief menace to health in Georgia. Relatively, in fact, It Is 2.4 times as dangerous as the next feared, Infantile Diarrhoea, 9 times more dangerous than Typhoid, and has to its credit 9.9 the deaths from malaria. The eontrol of Tuberculosis depends upon a three-fold activity: the pre vention of infection, which occurs chiefly in childhood, the prevention of tuberculous disease, w hich is due to lowered resistance, sometimes many years after the infection, and home or sanatorium treatment of the actual cases. The first two are by far the more important activities. They represent he ounce of prevention that is worth the pound of cure. To demonstrate the possibility of cure the state has established the Sana torium at Alto and appropriates $56,000 yearly for that purpose. The insti tution is entirely Inadequate, having slightly fewer than one hundred beds for whites and none for negroes. For reasonable accommodation for the sick of both races an appropriation of $500,000 is needed. Heretofore the State has made no appropriation to the larger educational and preventive program; the work has been carried on chiefly by private agencies. Now that we know the need and see that Tuberculosis is 40% of the public health problem, pleus for legislative support of the preventive pro gram should not go unheeded. Mistake Too Often Made.

Lake’s Level Has Fa'ler. The pre-hlstorlc Lake Tahoe was larger and deeper than the present lake.

(H) URGENT NEED OF A LARGER SANATORIUM The State Tuberculosis Sanatorium is equipped to care for a limited number of early cases, a large institution is necessary in or der to take care of advanced cases and some provision must be made for the care of the negro tuber culosis. At present nothing is being done for the care of negroes by the State of Georgia. The present State Sanatorium can accommodate only 95 white patients, and no negroes. There is urgent need for an appro priation of $500,000 for the construc tion of a modern, properly equipped hospital for the care of whites, then the present plant could be used for the treatment of negroes. This would mean that 300 whites and 100 ne groes could he placed under treatment at one time —even this would be only partly adequate. Other States have appropriated larger sums for their Tuberculosis hospitals than we are asking for Mississippi has recently appropriated $1,250,000 for this purpose, Louisiana has but lately appropriated $380,00( for negroes alone; Texas, $1,250,00( for a Sanatorium for early cases alone; Virginia has three State San. atoriums, v.\yo for whites and one foi negroes. North Carolina has a San atorium, much larger than Georgia."" The State of Georgia appropriated for 1920-1921, $56,000 per year foi maintenance, a mere bagatelle as compared to other States. The State Legislature did a most noble thing ir making such large appropriations last year for Education. Now if we car convince them that health should be considered as important as education we cen get our necessary large hos pital. Tuberculosis is a tremendous cause of physical disability and an important reason why so many children must be kept from school, either directly,.be cause they themselves have the dis ease or because of the poverty result ing from Tuberculosis in the family. It is among the young that Tubercu losis is most prevalent—Georgia must not neglect the physical health. Illit eracy Is bad enough, but illiteracy plus bad health is a combination wel l nigh insuperable. Georgia must hav< her peoples’ health and education pro gross in parallels. Almost all cases need treatment foi a longer period than is now possibly at the Sanatorium. A larger hospital will make it possible to care for pa tients for a longer period of time with much better results. Every true Geor gian who has the welfare of the State and people at heart should take ar active part in advocating the passage of the appropriation for this pur pose. by appealing to their Repre sentatives and showing them the ne cessity for such an Institution.
