.. London--Many old theories regard- 'resident 16 Im spe man WINNETKA WEEKLY TALK, SATURDAY, SEPTEMBER 4, 1920 _- -- ---- DOCTOR DISPUTES OLD THEORIES OF 1 TUBERCULOSIS CURE ing the treatment of tuberculosis are disputed by Dr. Marcus Peterson, medical officer of the Brompton hospital, and long-time superintendent of various important senatoria. He holds that: Pine trees do not help to cure con- sumption. Great altitudes are not necessary for a consumptive patient. No special diet is required. A sea voyage or a visit to the sea- side may prove worthlesss. Emigration or a change of air is not valuable. There is no special value in a warm climate. If any climate hastened the cure of tuberculosis, Dr. Peterson says, then the climate of respective "health re- sorts" should kill all the tuberculi bacilli in the neighborhood or cure each individual immediately after in- fection. Statistics show, he says, that all alleged health resorts have a constant death rate of native resi- dents from the disease. "If T had to choose between a home for tuberculosis in Colorado, where the treatment was on the lines of 'doing a little gardening,' and a san- itarium in a London slum district, conducted by a man versed in the control of auto-intoxication and who had others necessary qualifications-- a tempermental understanding of men and women--I should not hesi- tate to prefer the latter," concludes Dr. Peterson in a book he has just finished on the subject. He said the Central Powers only succeeded in destroying as many Englishmen in one year of war as consumption destroys in every two and a half years of peace. If the motion picture makers don't want censorship they might drag a few less of their heroines through the gutter. MN PRICE OF LUXURIES IN ENGLAND SLUMP; ALL ON THE DECLINE London--Slump prices in all luxury goods have hit England. Everything from motor cars to manicure sets are skidding on the price toboggan. Six: months ago premiums of from $100 to $1000 were being paid simply for someone else's chance to buy a motor car. Today they are being offered at less than list prices. Women's finery also has struck an 'economy wave on the part of the gentler sex, and jewelry, musical in- struments, fine furniture and other expensive commodities are in the doldrums. John Bull is watching his private purse with the eye of a Scot. Extravagant govermental spend- ing, such as $250,000,000 recently in Russia without permission of the people, continues. Taxes remain high. Rents are going up. Food is not coming down. Fruits are scarce. The average Englishman is lessening his own personal expenses from sheer necessity--for the income tax man is waiting with a bucket. "We are getting back to normal prices," luxury goods merchants ex- plain. "We are waiting for still lower prices of all things we can manage to get along without," says the pub- lic. Everywhere signs of less extrava- gant expenditure by the average man is to be noted. Only four of America's chief ex- ecutives have had the privilege of riding in motor cars--McKinley, Roosevelt, Taft and Wilson. C. H.
