rBENEDl i. V , .( v" ' " '. " L . VOL. XII?N i Tuberculosis A A Striking TUBERCULOSIS ASSO'N. ISSUES STATEMENT Columbia, S. C.,' May 21?Al^ though the gt r.erat-deat-rate from tuberculosis has continued to decline in a gratlying way, an analysis of the mortality records reveal;. certain lacts which serve to -dull the bright edge of achievement-. One of the most striking of these is the high deathrate from tuberculosis among Negro es, behind which lies the whole problem of tuberculosis in the Negro. V A few years ago, a report of the i* Tennessee Department dl i'ublic li'e?alth contained the 'statement, that "About one out of every tei persons in, the United States is a Negro; one out of every four perhons dying of tuberculosis is t Negro. These ratios ought' to t imply at once that hercPis a serious responsibility and a great task lor those- interested in the welfare of the country". * Approximately 20,000 Negroes die of tuberculosis each year. The " T tuberculosis?death-ante fui - N*egroes is 170 for every 100,000 population?an compared?for?t.hi white- poulation. More than 21 per cent of the total population. Why is the Negro group so haru hit by this disease? Why should this group show a higher deathrate than the white population? There are several possible answers to these questions. Some authofities_ believe the Negro has certain racial characterisitcs, which make him ~particularly susceptible to tuberculosis. Others believe the Negro has no "inherited resistance" because, compared to the white race, he has been exposed to tuberculosis only a short time Most students of the problem agree on the third possible reason lor the prevalence of tuberculosis a montr Nueroca^-tlureis- the _sociaj_ and. educational disadvantages unTlfte questioh of whether or not the Negio is inclined toward tuLerculosus by certain biologic'differences canrnrtf tit" "settled 'until research .has.. provided-more exac. information than is available at present. f Concerning the point of "inherited resistance," the indications > are generally in favor of this : th co rj\ - -Negroes- weV^free-oL-tiir 1 berc.ulosis in Af rich before-contact with the white man. When brought to America as slaves they were 'well-fed and cared for in order that their owners* might realize as much as possible from their labor. When they were freed, they Swere thrown on their own resources and faced with .situations which I they worn totally unsuited and untrained to handle. Consequently. tjiey suil'ered privations that made them easy victims <)f tuberculosis. -Their reaction to this dioouse has been the same as any. racial group exposed to tuberculosis for the first time, shoing a ; rapidly progressive" form arid a I)r. A. B. Johnson In New Home r ?-? ? ?>-* " iTinru ourKcun AC(|Ultc U8K SI. Residence Dr. A. B. Johnson who formerly lived in Augusta, Geqrgia wtho recently acquired a beautiful home in YVuverley near Valley Park at Ml IT Oak"streelThas just moved hisfaniily from Augusta to Columbia. l>r. John.<on came to Columbia during the early part of the fall of last year to take oyer the of-, rfit'e practice of the late Dr. C. E Stevenson, He is known as one of the host surgeons n the South, and operates at the Waverly and Good Samaritan hospitals weekly. While he devotes most of his time to surgery, he has been able to divide a part of his time to the general practice of mcdiean. " During the past week Mrs. John son and thirteen months old little daughter, Shirley arrived in Columbia from Philadelphia where they have been since. Xmas, visiting Johjmon-V mqther, Mrs. Johnson says that she likes, her new home o'n Oak street, where he t has received large numbers of Columbians who have made infor mai social calls since she- reached Columbia. The Oak street house, acquired by the Johnsons is one of the show places ip that section of the city, is surrounded by fthrub bery on a hill-tup that overlooks Wales Garden and Shandom. Dr. "Johnson's office is located at 1416 Assembly street, between Washington and HaYriptbn fits. SPIRITUAL TO BE REPEATED ?, -J The group of singers consisting Iof about 40 voices that sang at Drayton Hall on tho University of ' South Carolina Campus before a [CT C01 ?ATTORT % imong Negroee ^Problem i high mortality. L- The social and educational fac I tor&are -undoubtedly of major - im portance as regards the Negro tu berculosis problem. Tuberculos is flourishes' on dirt and darknes; and lean rations. The JJcgroe: j have been an underprivilege< I group, forced to live in undesir j able corners, and eke out whatevei ! kind of existence thdy could. Thi habits of living which they wer< orced to assume have made then easy prey to sickness. No matter why, the fact stil remains 'that tuberculosa takes i heavy toll among Negioes eacl year,~and that the disease-a-muni :hem runs a rapid course to deawt \nd what shall we do about itl Shall we fold our hands and tel rach other, "Negroes as a rao< are particularly susceptible to tu berculosig and we must resign our selves to having them die off"': j Or shall we pass the time by rerepeating aloud "Negroes have | beep exposed to tuberculosis toe short a time to develop a'natura resistance to tuberculosis, hut, ir ; a few hundred years this difficulty will adjust itself"? Or shal we roll?uP outr-sleeves?and?announce, "Whatever the cause, som< thing must be done NOW to stop hi_j wirloen??noA .K ""jsr " vavi ujf nig; There is much that can be dont ..o remedy this- problem of tuberculosis in1 the Negro. 'there it little hope of changing his physical make-up, it is true, and the -urgency of the situation demandt nore than quiet waiting while the Negro develops an "inherited resistance". For all practical purposes, jrreventive work must be effected by modifying the social and educational factors. Adequate medical care and hospitalization, education concerning how to live, and where to live, and help in attaining desirable hyusing condi; "Lions, instruction-in personal ~~Ka_-Ats=^cleanliness, alietr-and-so-OH? chese are some of the weapons by .vhich tuberculosis will be brought under control in this group. In iddition to general health work, , special efforts should- be- made tc disseminate knowledge about the disease itself?its cause, prevtjn* don, symptoms, and cure. . Someone has said "the palace on the hill yinnot be safe as long is there is disease in the^hovels below". This Is" especially true in the case of tuberculosis. There is little hope of ridding ourselves ol this dispnso nntflc^ """ V* **?*-?-> o nc von tuntroll - it in the particular groups where it flourishes and constantly provides new centers of infection. The problem will not solve itself, nor can we solve it by closing our eyes to it, and pinning our hopes blindly on the decreasing general death-rate form this disease. Tuberculosis among Negroes is definitely a problem, and a serious one, but just as definitely is ~it capable of .solution. The methods are simple and direct, but they need DOING to be effective.
