Tuberculosis event in Speedwell hall highlights dire costs
The Yehoash society held a public tuberculosis meeting in Speedwell hall with Dr. M. D. Berman presiding and Dr. Jacob Gancher and Dr. Thomas J. Kilmartin addressing in German and English. Howard L. Udell spoke on the topic and 300 people attended. Dr. Kilmartin warned that 140,000 U.S. deaths yearly and a $1,000,000,000 annual economic loss threaten the nation, urging sanitary laws, outdoor living, and anti tuberculosis leagues. A Red Cross Seals sale netted $5. The program covered carpet dangers and the need to remove carpets for cleanliness. Heirs of Meriden woman Mary Sloper seek a will, as 95-year-old Miss Sloper left no known will and heirs pursue her estate.
