TUBERCULOSIS CASES
PLENTY OF SANATORIA. AUCKLAND, March 16. Dr. T. H. A. Valintine at a meeting of the Hospital Board expressed the opinion that it 'would be unvise at the present juncture to establish another tuberculosis sanatorium in the North Island. It was an extraordinary fact that, though the population in the South Island was only two-thirds that of the North Island, there wore more T.B. eases in the South. Further, though the South Island spent more than double the amount spent by the North Island, the death rates of both Islands were practically the same. He did not think it Aviso to have research work in New Zealand. Research, work in England ami abroad was sufficient..—Press Assn.
