Jail houses a tuberculosis patient as health risk grows
Commissioner West intervened to move a prisoner with tuberculosis from the District jail to the newly opened tuberculosis hospital if jail authorities accept responsibility for safekeeping. Dr. Smith warned the jail’s unsanitary conditions threaten other inmates, calling the situation a crime against both the patient and fellow prisoners. Warden McKee appeals to the Department of Justice and President Roosevelt for action, urging an isolated hospital to separate contagious cases, with costs deemed small and housing improvements needed urgently.
