Opposition to Koch Theory Dominates Tuberculosis Congress Debate
At the International Congress on Tuberculosis in Washington the session on animal tuberculosis saw sharp opposition to Dr. Robert Koch’s claim that bovine and human tubercle bacilli are distinct and that bovine disease poses little human danger. Leading critics from the United States featured Dr. Otto G. Noack, D. Arthur Hughes, C. J. Marshall, H. Reno Reynolds, and Veranus A. Moore, stressing the need for coordinated state veterinary laws and questioning Koch’s assurances. Robert Watchorn of New York's port immigration office argued that true immigration tuberculosis data cannot be obtained at entry points and urged community-based study. He noted only 590 TB cases among 585,970 immigrants last year.

Great Lakes to the Gulf Deep Water Route

He asserts Canada would otherwise control the lakes and push the British navy onto the lake seabord, urging a continental waterway to rival Canada and ensure national prosperity and security.
