Russell on Work of Lions Club Shows Wha@ Has Been Ac.complished Here to Reduce Tuberâ€" i:{ulosn.i'i Good Housing the Best Preventative, Says Dr. ussell. "The tuberculosis death rate in the Porcupine Camp is equal to that of the slums of any big city, New York, Lonâ€" don or Berlin,"‘ Dr. Norman Russell told the Lions Club on Thursday night, reâ€" porting on the branch of the club‘s work dealing with tuberculosis prevenâ€" One of the ways to prevent T. B., said the Doctor was to improve housing conditions. In the camp there were too many houses on one lot; too many people in each house; bad sanitary conditions. One of the duties of the Lions Club was to plan for the future and prevent the rise of the disease by preventive methods., tion In 1935 the death rate in the camp was eightyâ€"six in every hundred thouâ€" sand. That was the highest rate in the Province. In 19386 that figure was reduced to 64 in 100.000 and in 1937, 62 in every 100,000, The decrease was parâ€" tially due to the establishment of a chest clinic by the Lfons Club, financed by the Christmas Seal Fund. He found, said Dr. Russell, that 7,500 school children had been tuberculin tested through the efforts of the Lions Club. Positive reactors were Xâ€"rayed. Eight hundred children were examined and Xâ€"rayed. They were brought from South Porcupine, Dome, Golden City and Buffaloâ€"Ankerite, Neéxt week the Schumacher children would be done. All that had been accomplished by a @aoctor, two nurses and two technicians working three weeks. The club had been able to hospitalize eighty per cent of diagnosed cases.

Because of that coâ€"operation they had been able to cut the mortality rate from 86 in 1935 to around 60 at present. At present, he continued, the work had come to a standstill. Through their efforts they had located the sources of the disease. Next step was to clean up the situation responsible for it. One of the major causes was poor housing conditions. Province for any community, _ Some were content to hospitalize twenty perâ€" cent. The very best kind of coâ€"operation from Town Councils wasâ€" responsible in The approximate number of chilldren tuberculin tested up to the time a surâ€" vey was madso last year was 4.800. O that number 600 reacted positively. Of the 600, 575 were Xâ€"rayed. Total numâ€" ber of students referred to chest clinic was 62. The number referred to their family doctors for other condit.ns, such as tonsils and heart was 31. Stuâ€" dents under the supervision of the chest clinic numbered 52. One boy, aged 18, from Timmins, died in the sanitorium about a year ago. His case was diagnosed prior ty the work of the Lions Club. A girl, aged 12. died of tuberculosis meningitis a year ago.

Wood, cf Iroquois Falls. Major Murray. manager of the Canaâ€" dian Broadcasting Corporation, was present. In reply to Mr. Wood‘s talk, Major Murray said that he believed the solution would be the establishment of high powered short wave stations. The Northern end of Ontario provided a large problem for the C. B. C., said Major Murray. It was going to be solved in part by an increase in power in radio stations in Timmins, Kirkland Lake and Sudbury.
