HEALTH FORCES , DEFEAT DEATH Thirteen Thousand Five Hundred UY3S Saved In Two Years.

Tho precious lives of thou- eande of llttls children have been spared because the stats In Ita wlae beneficence haa fumlah ed diphtheria antitoxin to tho poor. Typhoid fever Is killing 2500 Icat people per year In Pennsyl vania than it did tour yeara ago. Tuberculosa now claims 1000 Uvea leaa a year In thla state. Educalisn and cooperation of the people In health matters, backed by vigorous support of the public press, la helping Com missioner Dixon to win out In war against dlseass. Industries seek states where health recsrda show low death rate. In the last five years the stats of Pennsylvania has been engaged It contervation work of an extremely Important and fundamental kind. Wltb I'rreldent Roosevelt It believes thai the preservation of the people's nat uml resources should begin with the preKervatlon of the people themselves. The public cannot conscientiously per mil the wasteful sacrifice of Its forest and Its other forms of natural wealth tut even less conscientiously can terrolt the wantom sacrifice, of Itr children's lives. In maintaining a fully equipped state health department and engaging on a large scsle in this great warfare against disease, Pennsylvania has tak en a foremost stand for real modern civilisation. The creation of govern mortal agencies for the preservation of the public health marks a new con ceptlon of governmental responslbll Ity. The work thus far marks only tho beginning merely suggests the good which thla department, under the direction of Dr. Samuel O. Dixon tho commissioner, baa In view. In the laat thirty yeara the attl tude of the public towards 111 health hat radically changed, until tho re searches of that resourceful genius Iouls Pasteur, disclosed the real cause of conlagloua diseases, the aver age man's conception was practically hat which hart.-orovaned In the mid usnora or FTovtasnco, expressions of divine wrath; punishments for sinful human kind. Even the scientist re garded them as fundamental facta of nature, like death Itself, which every one most uncomplainingly accept. Pas xeur. nowaver. in a few masterly ex Veriments, bruahed aside all thla Ig norance and superstition. Ho showed that all contagious dlssases had cieany defined and obvioua origin. They were not mysterious visitations without tangible cause and Insuscep tible to tangible control. They were caused by an infinitely largo universe or innniteiy small forms of vegetable and animal life. Ho demonstrated that tho connection between these malevolent mlcro-orgaalsms and the ensuing disease waa as close as that between sunlight and heat. And he at Immediately drew the inevitable oncluslon. If tho world were once rid of these onanisms, he declared. It would bo rid of contagious diseases, "ft is bow within the power of the world" such waa the 'deduction whlrh bo drew from bis experiments, "to rid Itself of all contagious dla eases." Setting Pice In Health Work. This was the goal at which Pasteur aimed; that haa been -the goal at which all movements for Improving the people's health havo necessarily aimed since. And thla was the ulti mate ambition which led, five years ago. to the orgnltatlon of the Penn arlvnnla (State Department of Health a Pennsylvania in which there shall be no young men and women lan arMilnr away with tuberculosis; a Pr-tisylvanla In which no children siuitl die of diphtheria; a Pennsylva n:a in which there shall be no ty phoid, no scarlet fever, no smallpox no nienlnsttie. no dysentery, no ma laria this Is the kind of Pennsylvania which the State Department of Health ones ultimately to create. It does not expect to reach this goal In a year, or ten years, perhaps not In t single gcneiation. but this Is the Ideal thai It haa constantly in mind It re cognises the fact that, so long aa any of these diseases exist, their preva lence la a distinct reproach to the etate. It la a reproach simply be came the method eliminating them la known. The old theory of government aa a power which protects Its clti seas only from foreign foes and native araudere Is giving way to new atan darda of civilization. Tk. . .... nemlea to the atato are those which ara anaeen, and the first duty of aa enlightened commonwealth la to pro tect Its people against them. Other state are gradually rising to thla now conception, but Pennsylvania now clearly heads them all, for In no othet stale la the battle against the common enemy being waged on so largo a scale as here. The experi ment, therefore, Is not only ol ex treme importance to Pennaylvanlana, tut aa an example to the nation and the world. Does It Pay. Naturally the people are Interested to learn precisely how the larg ewrns the state la Investing annually ta gord heslth la being spent; what are Its dividends, as measured In the actual saving of human lives? Is Pennsyl vania a richer, a more healthy com monwealth now than It waa four years ago? Ia the average cltlsen less like ly to acquire a mortal disease less likely to die If he does acquire one? In exchange for lta generous appro priations Pennsylvania haa received, first of all, a considerable reduction In Ita death rate. Not so many people die here now as died In 1908, the year when the new department began Ita organised work. The cltliens of Pennsylvania, especially Ita little chil dren, stand a better chance than they formerly did of reaching mature life and a green old age. Mortality sta tistics do not commonly furnish citing reading, but, when considered from this point of view, they make aa emphatic personal appeal. Thus, In 10 and 10T, the death rate In Pennaylvanla per thousand of popula tion waa 1 6; in 1908, It had dropped to lb.T, and In 1909 to U.S., At first glsiice thla may not seem a remark able diminution, but In a state with a population of more than 7,000,000 even fractional decrease Is a substantial gain. Thla appears when one figures precisely what this slight numerical drop means In the actual aavlng of human Uvea. Had the death rate of lii and 190T prevailed In 1908, pre clsely (519 more people would have died than actually auccumbed. Had this same rate applied In 1909, Instead of the decreased percentage recorded by the Bureau of Health, Just 8388 men, women and children now living and presumably In good health and spirits, would have rendered their final tribute to nature. In other words these matter of fact statistics, when interpreted In their reel rela tion to the welfare and happiness of the state, mean the saving to the state of 1S.907 live. Human Lives aa Stats Assets, Thla fact haa an Immense personal mesnlng for all people of the state among these rescued lives might have been your own, your wlfes, your child's; but they also have a value which la measurable In dollars and cents. The political economists now recognise that the most valuable Jtlnd of wealth la the human life that hu man labor la worth at least Ave times that of all other forma of capital. Even the newly landed Immigrant, ac cording to these Investigators, has a per capita value of $875; that Is, he adds lust that much to the nation's capital. Professor Irving Fisher, of Tale, one of the foremost American economists, has painstakingly figured the financial value to the state of every cltlsen at particular ages. A new-born Infant, aaye Professor Fish er. Is actually worth $90, while a five- year-old child la worth $950. From thla point on hla value rapidly In creases; at ten, conld he be sold at auction, hla market value would be at least $2000; . at twenty It would be $4000, and at thirty, $4100. From thla point the average human being begins to lose value, In proportion to hla de creasing productivity, until at fifty, Professor Fisher gives him a value of only $700. Thla aame authority places -" vJWTU6u,'ofcJ)H rate In Pennsylvania for the last two yeara represents a money saving of 128, 841.900. The state, In other words. Is Just that much richer haa Just that much mora available capital. For Ita actual expenditure to date of $3,000, 000. including a large portion for per manent improvements. It haa taken In more than $23,000,000. The earnings of the new Department of Health, con sidered purely from the commercial standpoint, thus represent dividends of mora than 7(8 per cent In four years. What la the value placed br the av erage cltlsen upon hla children's Uvea not the financial value estimated by the unemotional economist, but the worth lav affection, good cltlxenshlp and In all that holda the social organi sation togeinerT is it good business policy to save the Uvea of children at $7 apiece? Is It paternalistic and so cialistic to protect them against dan gerous Infections at the rate of $2 per n.a r -j nai is wnat the etate of Penn erlvaala la doing now. Thla conserva tive old commonwealth haa reached that stage of paternalism where the government will not alt quietly by and watch a little child choke to death with diphtheria when the expenditure of a few dollars from the public treas ury win relieve its sufferings and save Its life. Saving the Little Ones. For the last ten yeara the practical remedy for diphtheria haa been avail able for the children of prosperous households, but It haa not been avail able for the poor. Since Von Behrlng's Immortal discovery that the blood aerum of a horse which hss recovered from diphtheria possessed wonderful curative properties, and when Intro duccd Into the human organism would usually destroy the disease, thla for mer scourge of childhood baa lost early all Its terrors. In the old daya diphtheria, destroyed nearly one-half of all the children It assailed. It would do the same today among the poor In Pennaylvanla were It not for the anti toxin which the state provides fre. That large numbers of unprotected children have died moat shocking deaths In the past for the sole reason that their parenta were too poor to afford them anti toxin, la a melancholy reflection, but these things will not kapi-en la the future. In every cornet of Pennaylvanla, usually at well known drug stores, there are now atstlons foi Ue free distribution of anti-toxin, numbering 860. Whenever any pooi anan'a child falls III with diphtheria, bis physician, by making out a proper application, can secure free all the anti-toxin he needa to effect a cure. Since October. 1905. the Health De partment has la this way distributed s,44. packages at antl-toxla. It has treated 19.939 aick people, mostly chil dren, who, hut for the state'a Inter vestlon, would have been neglected. In the old daya about 10.000 of these chil drea would havo died: aa a matter of H& 1T dled.JS-earrj all those J who died were children who did not receive the anti toxin until the late etaawe) of the disease. The detailed ties of the dorjartmcnt show that rte earlier the sick child rocolves the anti-toxin, the greater his chances of recovery. These facts should empha sise the pressing need. In all cases, not only of anti-toxin treatment, but of this treatment at the earliest pos sible time. The department has also thoroughly tested the powers of anti toxin as an Immunising agent. Diph theria, aa every one knows. Is one of the most virulently contagious dis eases. It travels like lightning from the sick to the well. In the crowded homes of the poor, many of them Ideal culture tubes for the growth of the microbes. Its virulence Is especially marked. The department In three years baa Immunised with anti-toxin 14.537 persons, nearly all children, who had been exposed to the disease. Of these only 251 acquired It a little more than one per cent The Stato Department of Health's free distribu tion of antitoxin to the poor, there fore, has saved over 8100 lives at an average cost of seven dollars each and prevented contagion In several thou sands of cases at on average cost of two dollars. Battle Against Tuberculosis. In Its attitude towards the great problem of tuberculosis, the state gov ernment also shows thla keen sense of responsibility for the safety of the people. The department of health re gards all the tuberculosis poor as In a large sense the wards ol the state. Its efforts. In the first plsce. are to pre vent them from falling victims to this Insidious disease, and In the second, to assist materially In curing those who have become Infected. The death rate from tuberculosis In this state has fallen from 134 to 120 per one thousand of population In four years. This meana a aavlng of 1000 lives annually. In the matter of tuberculosis, how ever, the death rate tells only a small part of the story. Any work In Im proving conditions must be funda mental, and It will necessarily take many years before extensive results sre obtained. What the department has done has been to lay the founda tion of comprehensive attack. From Its laboratory Investigations of the tubercle bacillus to Its especially equipped sanatoria, there Is no pect of the disease that It does not study and combat It alma to enter at every stage Into the life of the tu berculoua poor. To many citizens the stato government la more or less of an Indefinite Idea; they seldom come Into contact with It as a living, acting entity; If you are once stricken with tuberculosis, however, especially If you are poor, the commonwealth of Penn sylvanla becomes physically manifest In your dally Uvea. In the medical In spection, In the physician and In the nurses the state ceases to be an eco nomic abstraction and becomes a kind helping, fostering personality. The Dispensaries. - If you are stricken down and cannot affoid proper medical attendance. there Is always near at hand a free tu berculosis dispensary, established for precisely cases of this kind. There are many thousands of patients in the state who are still able to be about te,'QH9Ah..iaUFr,,Jr). PfS of especial assistance to this class. The dispensary physicians have treat ed 21,227 patients and actually cured 712, while the condition of 2G49 haa ao greatly Improved that the arrest of the disease Is almost assured.' Here the sick man or woman Is received by a proiessionai nurse, Who makes a complete first-hand Investigation of the case. By questioning the patient she learns all the details of bis family history, his occupation, hla financial resources, his surroundings, at home or at work the latter particularly for the purpose of protecting bis intimates and assoclatea from Infection. Thla In formation ahe records for the use of me physician, and the department She follows up this preliminary talk ry an inspection at the patlent'a home Here her administrations amount to a liberal education In the treatment of iudocuiosis. She instructs the patient aa to the proper handling of himself how he must dress, bow he must eat and Bleep, and tells him of the well anown ways or building un the . ursl resistance of his body. She also advises all the other members of the noutenoia now to escape Infection frequently discovers some member in the early atagea of the disease and Is uius BDie to ward It off. The nurse de votes particular attention to diet nu trition being general r recognized as one of the predominating factors In strengthening the body's defenses Sha tells the 'housewife what to cook and how to cook' it She Inquires par Ocularly whether there is a sufficient supply of fieah eggs and milk. Per haps the family ia too poor to supply in? not man with tboss necessities. In that event the atate Itself provides thfiu. The dispensary nurses have n ade 133,444 visits of the kind de scribed above. Life at Mont Alto. Tbls, however, la only one depart ment of this life-saving work. Any one who wishes a graphic Idea of the state'a sanatorium work should visit the tuberculosis colony at Mont Alto. Here, at an elevation of 1600 feet above the aea, amid the breeze awept mountain pines, be will find neatly 800 men, women and children, under the rare of nhyslclans and minea bravely seeking to combat the disease In the fresh air and aunahlne. Labor story Investigations hsve msny times proved that the tubercle bacillus, once ei nosed to the light and air, shrivels up like a guilty thing and Derishes- and the atate. In thla unique sanator ium, is giving Its tuberculoid nonr their one gTeat chance of overcnmln the diaeaae. This Mont Alto site Is sit uated In the midst of a state forest reservation of 6500 acres. It Is high, cool. dry. with an abundance of fresh spring wster. tillable soli upon which many of the household supplies can be raised, and all the attractions of nature to make pleasant and peaceful the Uvea of the patients. There Is a I'l'afe 9 .specially constructed. cot- tages tn wblcli the TncipienT live. and a larg, well equipped hospital building for the this sanatorium advanced eases. A Pennsylvania baa treated up to Dec.

For Pure Water. In lighting such a widely prevalent disease as typhoid fever, the useful ness of a central state health organi sation Is especially demonstrated. Against typhoid a local board, Is prac tically helpless.. This la because the chief sources of Infection are the wa ter courses. Our rivers unfortunately do not recognize atate or county lines. A Municipality may prevent water pol lution from the banks within Its own Jurisdiction, but cannot prevent It In other sections.. Pittsburg may stop Its own citizens from sewering Into the streams, but she cannot stop .other communities from polluting the wa ters from which she draws her own supply. And the discouraging fact la that, while one town may refrain from polluting the stream so that another further down may not have to drink Its filth; Its own water supply may he polluted by less conscientious neigh bors living up-stream. Up to the year 1905 man- In Pennsylvania appeared to have lost the natural Instincts of the lower animals and seemed Indif ferent to the danger of loading his system with that which nature haa once thrown off aa poison. Man. un like the beasts of the field, had taken on the habit of discharging his offal Into the streams from which he took his drinking water. Only some central body, which has absolute control over all water courses, can accomplish a general purification of the streams. The legislature recognized this ne cessity for central control when. In 1905, It placed all water courses. so far as public sanitation waa concerned. under the Jurisdiction of the governor; attorney general and commissioner of health. But there are also other pfl vate sources of pollution especially the old-fashioned privies and wells hlrh still are found In large num hers, overflowing Into streams. These the department of health has now the power to abolish. The department has In file complete and detailed maps showing all the state'a water courses, large and small. Whenever a case of typhoid fever Is reported it can - im mediately put Its finger on the water shed where the disease originated and Investigate accordingly. No munlclpsl Ity can Bow construct water works without first obtaining .the state's ap proval of Its plans. It cannot build sewerage plants without similar con sent. Acting through these broad pow ers, the health department, through Ita army nf inspectors, has penetrated the remotest recesses of the state. In specting premises, ' noting palpable nuisances.

It has Issued 204 de crees requiring changes In public wa ter works. Under Its advice and sug gestion, an over the atate, cities and municipal bodies have awakened and voluntarily begun to Improve their water supplies. Under the supervis ion or the department sixty-seven age disposal plants and thirty Ave wa ter filter plants have been built or are now under construction. Typhoid Cut Down. The purification of the state's drink Ing water Is a large task and will take many years, but already the Improve ments have cut the typhoid death rata tn half. In 1906. 6S.5 out of every 100,- uuu people died from thla diaeaae; In ou.s; m iSOK, 4., and In 1909 xi.i. Tint la there are now living 2383 people who, had the death rata of 19'is prevailed In 1909, would have died, I believe enough has been said to convince you that Pennsylvania's cltl iens have been made richer In health. happiness and'industrlal vigor and the state rendered more attractive, both for residential and manufacturing pu.r poses and for-the mere Jay. of life, b.v me application of the grand health laws of 1905.

But we can rejoice when we know beyond all doubt that in every -year nnttmely death haa been abut out of more than 8C00 ol our homes and that at least 69.000 of our people .are an nually spared the ravages of acute dis eases.
