TB Seal Drive
Begins on Nov. 15
The Alaska Tuberculosis Associ
ation drive begins November 35*
according to Mrs. Charles Edris,
local chairman. Christmas seals
will be distributed for use on let
ters. TB stamps are being mailed
to coincide with the beginning of
the drive. Girl Scouts have stuffed
the envelopes.
There have been several cases
locally where people have been
hospitalized with TB and have re
turned to their jobs, through the
ATBA. Others have been helped
from the island villages.
Tuberculosis is still the most
serious health hazard in Alaska,
according to the Alaska Tubercu
losis Association, sponsors of the
drive in Alaska- There are sev
eral cases in the Kodiak area, ac
cording to Mrs. Edris.
More than 1,200 Alaskans are
now being hospitalized for tuber
culosis. 645 were discharged and
beds refilled. The alarming aspect
is the new case rate. 955 new
cases were diagnosed last year,
more than in the year previous.
According to officials of the
ATBA, there is a deep reservoir
of infection among us that has
not been reached.
CROWDED
There’s always room at the top,
even for prices, but by now the
place must be terribly crowded.—

Bob Bartlett Says..
“I advocate and am working for
the election of Ernest Gruening.
In statehood’s formative years his
presence in the United States Sen
ate is essential. Ernest Gruening’s
great knowledge of Alaska, his
wide acquaintance in Washington,
his native ability, his devotion to
Alaska, make him a man excep
tionally well qualified to repre
sent us in the Congress of the
United States.”
