Twenty-Four Thousand One Hundred
And Fifty-Nine Dollars Of The
Fund For 1921.
The appropriation of the State Board
of Health lor 3 022 and 1023 was cut
by the Legislature. This cut, with the
withdrawal of federal aid to venereal
disease control work, gives the Slate
Board of Health $24,150.00 less money
than they are operating with'this year.
It is hard to conceive how this work
can be carried on in the same pro
portion as at present; in fact, it can
not be done. The Venereal Disease
Control Division of the Board has been
cut 60 ( c; this means that this De
partment cannot do much more than
continue its free Wnsserman Depart
ment and possibly furnish Koidel blood
tubes to the physicians. This, as we
view it, is no less than a public ca
lamity. The State Board of Health,
so far as the central unit is concerned,
had their appropriation cut $9,590.
When you consider the growth of the
population and the constantly increas
ing demands on the Laboratory, you
will realize that this really means a
decrease in the capacity of the work
of the State Board of Health, of about
20%; in other words, it was estimated
by Dr. Thou. P. Abercrombie, the Sec
retary and Commissioner of Health,
that to keep pace with our increase
of population and consequent danger
from infectious and communicable dis
eases incident to the natural conges
tion of people, he would have to have
ten thousand dollars more money for
1922 amf* 19214 than for last year and
this. This, it seems to the editor of
tills paper, was a very modest and rea
sonable conclusion.
The appeal of Dr. Abercrombie to
the appropriation committee was for
$100,950.00. This was made after very
careful estimates had been made hav
ing in view tl\e financial condition of
the State and of the people who pay
the tax, keeping constantly in mind
the actual demands on him by tlie peo
ple and the physicians of his State,
with also the fact that the lowered re
sistance of our people from the neces
sity for economy that all must prac
tice. the possibility of an increase in
the common lea lde diseases and a pos
sibility of pellagra increasing. We can
imagine his grief and surprise when
the committee recommended an ap
propriation for the entire work of $(J7,-
500.00; tin* appropriation for this year
had been $90,590.00.
The friends of the people and those
legislators who were interested in the
prevention of disease, some of them
being members of the appropriation
committee from the floor of the House
succeeded in getting this raised to $si.-
•131,00. Many realized that this sum
was entirely inadequate for the work
of tlie health department, and interest
ed themselves in having the Senate
increase the amount at least to the
figure of this year, hut history of all
time was broken when the Senate
adopted the House Bill without the
changing of a word, the dotting of an
l or the crossing of a t.
We think, in justice to our State
Board of Health, our people, and the
physicians especialy, should know the
facts, and If yon are not aide to get
from this Board the eo-operalion that
you think you should, you should re
member that they are doing the very
host they can and wrestling with n
shortage of $24,159.0(1.
It is more than likely that, the dis
tribution of free Arsphenamine will
have to he discontinued, and that the
funds will admit of very little diphthe
ria antitoxin being given the poor.
This is no less than a public calamity,
as a few doses of 606 will control the
spread of Syphilis and a few thousand
units of antitoxin will save a life.
Our State has many people in it who
are not able to pay for these reme
dies.
The work of the Board will have
to he curtailed in other respects as
well. We are quite sure that it will
function as best*it can, and with the
small appropriation at Its disposal will
lie the means of preventing much ill
ness and the curing of many who are
sick through fls diagnostic work at the
Laboratory.

ONE BRAND’
ONE QUALITY-
One Size Package
All our skill, facilities, and lifelong knowledge of the
finest tobaccos are concentrated on this one cigarette—
CAMEL.
Into this ONE BRAND, we put the utmost quality.
Nothing is too good for Camels. They are as good as it’s
possible to make a cigarette.
Camel QUALITY is always maintained at the same high,
exclusive standard. You can always depend on the same
mellow-mild refreshing smoothness—the taste and rich
flavor of choicest tobaccos — and entire freedom from
cigaretty aftertaste.
And remember this! Camels come in one size package
only—20 cigarettes—just the right size to make the greatest
saving in production and packing. This saving goes
straight into Camel Quality. That’s one reason why you
can get Camel Quality at so moderate a price.
Here’s another. We put no useless
frills on the Camel package. No “extra
wrappers!” Nothing just for show!
Such things do not improve the smoke
any more than premiums or coupons. And
their added cost must go onto the price
or come out of the quality.
One thing, and only one, is responsible
for Camels great and growing popularity
-that is CAMEL QUALITY.

PROTECTION OF WOMEN REFUSED
Legislature Fails to Pass Necessary
Law.
The protection of the young women
of our State against venereal infec
tion that was sought in u hill by Mr.
Moore, of Appling County, in the re
cent legislature was defeated because
of a lack of a constitutional majority.
The vote on this hill was Sr* for and
65 against; it requires 100 votes to
pass such a law. The bill was called
up at a very inopportune time, on Mon
day morning before a number of mem
bers of the House arrived. Splendid
work in favor of the enactment of this
measure into a law was done by the
various organizations of the good wom
en of Atlanta and a few outside of the
city.
The bill will be again offered at the
next session, and. fn the interim, it is
hoped that all who are interested In
the matter will do some effective
work.
