Newport Sets Example in Tuberculosis Control
Newport officials and the Newport Association for the Relief and Prevention of Tuberculosis report active efforts to control TB. The group oversees care for cases not with private physicians, sends curable patients to Wallum Lake or other institutions, and provides milk, eggs, and nursing to those at home. It has sent nineteen patients to the sanatorium, eight advanced cases to facilities, and coordinates disinfection, public health visits, and sanitation drives. A Fresh Air School is planned, with posters distributed to Italians and school districts. Wallace Hatch of the Rhode Island Anti-Tuberculosis Association stresses need for hospital capacity and public sentiment supporting prevention.
