LEPROSY IS NOT
BY PUBLIC
8AN FRANCISCO. Jnue 24.—Horror
of Leprosy is an inheritance from the
middle ages and Is not justified by
the facts, said Dr. Douglas W. Mont
gomery of San Francisco, in a paper
presented this morning before the
Slxty-8lxth Annual session of the
American Medical Association. The
repulsive appearance of leprosy and
the fear of its extreme contagion d/e
to misunderstanding of the nature of
leprosy as mentioned In the Bible have
created a belief in the public mind that
leprosy Is extremely contagious. This
belief, says Dr. Montgomery, is not
founded on fact. leprosy is very
slightly contagious and is a Blowly
progressive disease, much less danger
ous to the community or to the indi
vidual than smallpox, tubcreulosis and
many other diseases.
The growing economic and industrial
importance of public health work was
emphasized by several speakers.
Slckner.s insurance was advocated
by Lr. B. 8. Warren of the United
States Health Service, as a means of
overcoming the handicap of poverty
among wage earners. Dr. Warren
bowed that disease is more prevalent ,
among low paid workers than among
better paid and that fully one-half of
the wage-earning families of the
United States do not have an Incoms
sufficient to maintain a healthy stand
ard of living. A governmental system
of sickness Insurance for working peo
ple would Increase their economic In
dependence as well as their physical
condition, he said.
