Tuberculosis
Not
Gaining
Dr.
A. N. Sinclair's Report Shows
Facts and Figures to
Prove This.
"The first impression (but an er
roneous one, us will be pointed out)
is that tuberculosis is on the in
crease, and alarmingly so, through
out the Territory. Honolulu shows
an increase of registered cases of 100
that is an increase of GO per cent
sinte June 30th, 1911. Oahu shows
an increase of 33 cases, or over 100
percent. Hawaii shows an increase of
59 cases, over 20 canes, or 50 per
cent," says Dr. Sinclair in his an
nual report of the Anti-Tuberculosis
''ureau.
"A further analysis, however,
shows that the increase in cases is
only apparent, and not real.
"In Honolulu wo have at the end
of the year 60 per cent more cases
than at the end of last year, but
this is due to the fact that a greater
proportion of cases are now regis
tered at the Bureau than formerly.
"It is to be expected that if cases
are sought for, ferreted out. the fig
ures will show an apparent increase,
and this Bureau has devoted a great
deal of its attention to hunting out
cases. The nurses, in the employ
of the Palama Settlement, and un
der the direction of the Bureau, are
constantly on the watch for suspi
cious cases, and this lias had good
results.
"'Furthermore, which has l)cen
done to persuade private physicians
to report their cases, not necessarily
for supervision purposes, but to
know the status of the disease in the
Territory. Strange enough many
physicians are loth to report cases
of tuberculosis, perhaps through fear
of their patient taking offense, and
changing their physician, or on ac
count of the fallacious opinion that
by reporting cases of tuberculosis
they are guilty of a breach of pro
fessional confidence.
"Several circulars have been sent
out by the Bureau, urging physi
cians to report their cases. One to
the effect that if the notification is
marked "Confidential," this Bureau
will not interfere in any way with
the supervision of the case, the doc
tor thereby assuming all responsility
that the case does not become a me'
nace to the public health. This has
had good results many more cases
of better class patients being now re
ported than formerly.
"The assumption that the in
crease of registered eases it due to a
larger proportion of cases being re
ported, in Honolulu at least, is ful
ly confirmed when the number of
deaths for the fiscal year is consid
ered. The number of cases, and
the number of deaths are constantly
proportional in respect to any epi
demic disease, yit while the increase
in reported eases has been from 173
at the end of hist year, to 2i2, at
the end of the present year, the
number of deaths from tuberculosis
has been actually slightly reduced
: (from 1G9 to Kiti). This include
only those cases the Bureau has had
the supervision of viz: Pulmon
ary Tuberculosis and Hienptysic
Tuberculosis or infectious cases of
tuberculosis.
"Had the increase of cases been
actual, instead of apparent, the
number of deaths would have in
creased proportionately.
"But there is still, another factor
to be considered. This Bureau is
confident that before the close sup
ervision was kept over cases of tuber
culosis, deaths from that disease
were fiequently reported as "Pneu
monia" which were actually tuber
culosis. Now such deaths aro clas
si Red with tul)erculosis, but in spite
of this, the number of deaths from
tuberculosis is slightly less than last
year. That the above has some
foundation is evidenced by the fact
that the deaths from pneumonia for
1911-12 are only 122 as compare
with 188 for the previous year.
Indeed it is not tew much to
lay claim to, that the number of
ises in Honolulu at the close of the
present fiscal year is much less than
at the end of last year, and this in
pile of an increase in population.
Slight as the lowered mortality
is for the year, it is most encou
raging and a further incentive, to
continue the tight against mis ter
rible scourge.
"But still another proof of there
being actually less cases, is'contained
n Table VII.
'In spite of the fact that Hono
lulu is the clearing house" for
many case of tuberculosis (cases
coming to it from all other counties)
et the increase of cases over last
year is only GO per cent; while in
the othei counties (although many
cases are now credited to Honolulu
hich should credited to them) we
nd that t1 - has been a consider-
ble increase (except Kauai). An
ncrease of GO per cent in Honolulu,
as compared with 110 per cent on
Hawaii, and over 100 per cent on
Maui.
As for Kauai, there is strong evi
dence that many cases on Kauai are
not reported, as evidenced by the
fact that the number of unregistered
eaths is the number of registered
deaths as four to one a higher ratio
than anywhere in the Territory, ex
cept Oahu it showing no registered
aths. but this is explained by the
fact that almost all serious cases are
sent to Honolulu for treatment at
the Day Camp or Leahi Home.
'It is hoped that next year will
show some impression on the figures
pertaining to the outside districts;
the chief energies of the Bureau be
ing now directed against the disease
Honolulu, although . Sanatoria
have been established on Maui and
Hawaii, and these will tend to help
the situation in those counties con
siderably. 'Much of the work of the Bureau
has necessarily lieen given to Hono
lulu where it is situated, and in
close touch with condition to the
outside counties.
Hard Hunting.
Frederick Gluhe of Chicago, the orig
inator of the free lunch, was once talk

S1NOE.
The burning taper passed to and fro
across the thin, scant crop of hair, and
the laboring men couldn't understand
It at all. But finally one of them
brightened up and, putting his big,
rough hand to the side of his mouth, he
whispered to his companion hoarsely:
'He's looklu' for 'em with a light.' "
