Suggestions and Criticisms Invited
CHRISTMAS SEAL SALE
FUNDS TO FIGHT T. B.
Harry G. Watson of Fairbanks
has accepted the post as chair
man of the 1940 Christmas Seal
Sale campaign of the Alaska Tu
berculosis Association, it was an
nounced today by E. L. Barlett,
President of the Association.
“Tuberculosis in Alaska, is a
serious problem,’’ said Mr. Wat
son, “more of a problem than is
generally realized. During the
year ending July 1, 1940 over
p- fifty percent of the total deaths
from communicable diseases in
the Territory were caused by
tuberculosis. This is a tenrific toll
to pay to a disease that is pre
ventable.”
“This will be the seventh
year that the people of Alaska
have been asked to cooperate in
the fight against tubrculosiS and
I feel sure that, as in the past
they will again gladly and gen
erously support the campaign we
are waging against this common
enemy.”
“We are proud of the work
which has been done with the
funds raised by past Sales. They
have been made possible the tak
ing of thousands of X-rays of
children in the schools of Alaska
and of known contacts of active
cases of tuberculosis. Thru these
X-rays, hundreds of cases of the
disease have been discovered in
the early stages when a cure
could usually be easily effected.
I believe that every -esident of
Alaska will want to help us to
continue these clinics and the ed
ucational campaign we have
been conducting in conjunction
with them.”
