jw!toWjT the United States is face to

Funds for the campaign will be sought
by a ten-day sale of Red Cross*, seals,
beginning December 3. The total of
the several state budgets will be more
than $<5,500,000.
During the discussions, attention
was called to the revelations of the
war-time medical examination boards,
made up Wirgely of mev^befa of the as
sociation. Official figures were cited,
showing that of the men called to the
colors, nearl> 100,000 were tubercu
lous.
It wAs pointed out that the death
rate of 150.000 a year from one pre
ventable disease means the sncrlfice
of more lives 'than the United States
army lost In the year it was actively
engaged in the war. ? . - ?
