When Every Social Unit Begins to Fight Says Dr. Flick. Philadelphia Expart Says That Wage Earners are Specially Menaced By Dread Disease. Washington, D, . —ls : of our scciety is willing teove(rl{’ ?}?;t which they can do, 1 feel confident that the day is not far distant when we will have wiped the dread disease tuberculosis, off the face of the earth." This was the megsage of hope give.u by Dr. Lawrence Flick of Philadel phia, one of the mest eminent medi cal men of the country, at the New ‘Na'twnal Museum, where the tubercu losis exl)o§itlon is being held in con nection with the International Con gress of Tuberculosis. The meeting was in the interest of labor, and was one of a series to bhe given. The speakers were Dr. Flick, John Mitch ell, former president of the TUnited Mine Workers of America; Samuel Gompcers, president of the American Federation of Labor, and others. “Tuberculosis is peculiarly a dis 2ase of the wage-eurner,” said Dr. Flick, “and this is so for the very &ood reason that one of the strongest predisposing causes of the disease is overwork. It is an exceedingly fatal and prevalent disease among wage earners.” Dr. Flick pointed out that the rea son why the wage-earner is so likely to contract tuberculosis is beeause 1n many instances he is overworked, he toils in unsanitary workshops and of tentimes he is underfed, which causes his powers of resistance to be less able to throw off an implantation of ‘the tuberele bacilli. If the wage-earn er gets the implantation, Dr. Flick said, it is almost certain tn result fa tally. He refuted the theory of infection from ipheritance, saying that unless the tuberculosis micro-organism is ad mitted into our bodies it is mot possi- Yle for one to hecome infecied. The need of the establishment of hospitals and sanatoriums for the care of con tagious and non-contagious consump tives was emphasized. John Mitchell, who presided, enum erated some of the obstacies to great er progress in the promotion of health and the eradication of disease, and said it was due to the attitude of many employers of labor whom, he de clared, resisted the enactment of laws for the prevention of accidents and the promotion of heaith, Samuel Gompers paid a tribute te Dr. Robert Koch, the German seien tist. He declared that Dr. Koch will live in the memory of man when those who fail to appreeiate his discovery of the tubercle bacillus, or those who fatl to follow his precepts, are forgot ‘ten. He declared that the union work ing man was less susceptible to tuber culosis infection than the non-union man, because the union shops are su perior in sanitary appliances to other shops. The death rate from consump tion among non-union men is 100 per cent greater than among union men, he said. . : Statistics were presented by Fred erick L. Hoffman, showing that the number of deaths from consumption among the 32,000,000 wage earners in this country is 77,000. ~ WILD RUMOR AT AMOY. It Was That the American Fleet Would Seize That Port.
