He said the Department had found that 50 per cent of the new l'li5('V were in the over 40 years of atze Elroup. In the year 1955 the may unity did not find a single nrw case of T.B. in all the schools iisiicd.

With these facts in mind the Di-partmcnt of Hcalth felt that sitlIl(' new method was necessary in find the active case that were out coming to the mobile clinic.

T.B. LEAGUE C0-OPERATES So it was that in August of last year the Department started with the cooperation of the T.B. Lea- fine the "heat" testing of entire muimunitles and x-raying by the mobile unit all positive reactors. Dr. Bonnell said the T.B. Lea-

If the persr. has a positive re-

action. they a.e x-rayed and a icard with fr n ie. the date oi test and the result of the x-ray is mailed to them within a couple of days.

The Minister noted that this was a big improvement over the method used by the mobile unit. since a person ncvcr heard from the x-ray unless it was shown that T.B. was present. It relieves the suspense of waiting for a re- port wondering whether or not

they had T.B.

Dr. Bonriell reported there were 57 new cases of TB. in 1955 and 4:! new cases in 1956. a reduction of 25 per cent. The deaih rate in 1956 was 3.7 per 100.000 compared to 5.6 in I955.

,us looked after all the advertis- ing and publicity of the program and the cost of maintaining the mobile x-ray unity. The Depart- ment directed the unit to the dif- ferent sections of the Provinces where tuberculean testing is being carried out.

The Minister described the new mi-thod as a very simple proce- dure and reported that over ill per cent of the population are torn- ing out for testing. It is also found that 39 per cent of the population has reacted to this method. This reaction varied from 10.8 per cent in some areas to 80 per cent in others.

N0 RELAXATION

When you hear these decreasing figures in new cases and a new low of 3.9 in the death rate you might feel that we have tubercul- osis conquered in this province. but let me assure you that this is not the case. because at the pre- sent time there are about 200 tuberculosis patients who are re- ceiving treatment at the Senatori- um and another 100 are unable to work at home due to this disease. And in spite of the fact that our death rate was so low in 1956 there were 1,500 deaths from this disease

ibcds.

l So you can see that in spite of the fact that we might feel opti- lmistic toward this dread disease -we must not stop now, but must continue the fight against it with increased enthusiasm and look forward to the day when tuber- culosis will be a disease of our ancestors as smallpox is at the present time.

MENTAL HEALTH

The Minister reported that the Division of Mi-ntal Health has made great progress during the year 1956. "Our new Active Treat- ment Centre which was completed last year was opened unofficially in Otcober. at which time we were able to procure the services of a half dozen nurses.

Dr. Dewar: ”Thc same people who are paying for it now and in addition to this the Federal Government will pay 65 per cent of the cost.”

Premier: "You have a lot to learn about it."

Dr. Dewar said there would be many who would criticize the plan by arguing that the administra- tive costs would be too high when handled by the Government. He said that in actuality where gov- lcrnmcnt plans are now in effect the cost of administration is shown to be lower than under private companies.

OTTAWA WP) - The Unitcdi States has beaten Canada to thei punch in ordering a new armyl transport plane from a Canadian aircraft company.

De liavilland Aircraft of Can-i ada Ltd. Tuesday announced that the U.S. Army, through the Cana- dian dcfence production depart- ment, has placed a 52.500000 or-

t, der for five of its new twinengine , transports.

The plane. to be called the Carl- bou, is scheduled to be test-flown for the first time by mid-summer of 1958 and deliveries to the U.S. Army for evaluation tests are ex- pected to begin early in 1959.

The aircraft, planned for the last two years. is designed for rapid movement of troops and supplies on the atomic battlefield. It will be capable of carrying 18 combat troops or three tons of cargo and of landing in a space as short as 700 feet-twice the length of a football field.

This is the plane that the Cana- dian army wants to fit it for the age of atomic warfare. It is under- stood that the defence production

department still is negotiating a price with de Havllland for the Canadian Army and that a con- tract will be signed soon.

GET PLANE SOON

Decision to proceed with design and development of the Caribou was reached when the Canadian Army and defence production de- partmcnt indicated they would be prepared to participate with De llavllland in dcsign and manufac- ture of the prototype plane. the

l company said. Details of this ar-

lranuumcnt were not disclosed.

l The U.S. Army, which already has neets of De Havillantt Otter and Beaver light transports. be came so interested in the project

i that it nipped in first with an ac

tual order. However. the Canadian

Army is expected to get its first

Caribous for evaluation trials soon

after first deliveries to the U.S.

Army.

In the Canadian Army. the new

l plane is known as a "flying truck." it is intended to replace in large part truck convoys which would be prime atomic battlefield targets.
