Prof James W. Glover of the University of Michigan shows that a $10 000 whole life policy holder could save about $20 yearly if tuberculosis and typhoid fever were eradicated Tuberculosis alone costs a policy holder up to 1670 at age twenty and 17 50 at age sixty and shortens life expectancy by two years and 158 days The National Association for the Study and Prevention of Tuberculosis urges total societal effort to reduce rates as suggested by Glover.
