Excerpt from Transactions of the Sixth International Congress on Tuberculosis, Vol. 4 of 6: Washington, September 28 to October 5, 1908; Part Two, Proceedings of Section VII, Tuberculosis in Animals and Its Relations to Man The Control and Eradication of Tuberculosis - Any efforts to reduce or control tuberculosis of live-stock in order to be of lasting value must have eradication in view as the final object. We should not temporize with such an insidious malady, but should adopt aggressive measures that will insure success within a reasonable time. It has been clearly shown by the work of the Bureau of Animal Industry and by other investigations that hogs readily contract tuberculosis from cattle, and that diseased cattle are the primary source of the infection in hogs. The main problem, therefore, is to eradicate the disease in cattle, and when this is accomplished, tuberculosis may easily be eradicated from hogs. The eradication of animal tuberculosis may as well be recognized at the outset as a tremendous undertaking which will require not only the best efforts of the authorities in charge, but the sympathy and support of stock owners and the general public. Large sums of money will be necessary, and in order that adequate appropriations may be obtained, the necessity and importance of the work must be generally realized and understood.

Excerpt from Transactions of the Sixth International Congress on Tuberculosis, Vol. 5 of 6: Washington, September 28 to October 5, 1908; The Opening and Closing Ceremonies, Report of the Secretary-General, Officers, Committees, and Members When it was first proposed to have an exposition in connection with the Sixth International Congress on Tuberculosis in Washington, to which the whole civilized world should be invited to contribute; when it was, furthermore, determined that this exposition should represent, as nearly as could be, the progress and achievements Of the whole scientific world in its struggle against tuberculosis, since the discovery Of the tubercle bacillus, by R. Koch in 1882, which meant an exposition planned on a larger scale' than any of its predecessors - the task seemed indeed enormous, and scarcely to be realized. This catalogue, like the exposition itself, represents the sum total Of the contributions from all the exhibitors, individual as well as collective. Of the 438 contributors to the exposition, 312 reside within the limits Of the United States; 126 without. Two hundred and twenty-two Of the above number are collective contributions, that is, from associations, societies, and other corporate bodies, and 216 from individual members Of the Congress. Of the 222 collective contributors, those from the United States number 170; those from Europe or from other parts Of America, 52. Of the 216 individual exhibits we are indebted to the United States gor 142, to European and American countries outside Of the United States, or 74.

Excerpt: ...cases who are unable to pay the weekly charge, the managers may accept any sum less than five dollars per week that they may see fit for 10 per cent, of the total number admitted. To induce patients to remain long enough to secure the best results of treatment; to harden them so that they may return to former occupations with the least detriment; and, further, to teach patients occupations to enable them to gain a livelihood out-of-doors, the trustees of the sanatorium are authorized to provide suitable outdoor employment, and to pay patients not to exceed $5 per week for their labor. The medical superintendent will have full control, and will determine the quantity and quality of work each patient may do. This arrangement will permit of at least 10 per cent, of the patients gaining entrance to the sanatorium free of charge, and of earning something like $5 per week during most of their stay. This, it is hoped, will help solve the vexed problem of supporting the family during a good part of the time the breadwinner is "making his cure," and thereby induce him to stay longer. It may also help solve that other problem of teaching patients how to make a living at some new, healthful occupation, and prevent many from returning to those conditions which so often cause their disease to be lighted up again. To summarize: Ohio is providing a small institution, the main object of which is educational. This is located upon large, healthful, and fertile grounds. Only favorable cases will be received, and these upon four weeks' trial. Reception cottages receive new patients, and these are arranged to insure their close medical supervision, and to permit of either indoor or outdoor sleeping. Special provision will be made for the employment...
