Drs. Midian Bousfield, j Chicago, Bowles of York, Pa., and Dr- W. Harry Barnes of Phila delphia represented the National Medical Association. Under the Economic Security Bill, eight million dollars will be used to aid state health depart ments to strengthen their serv ices and attack major health problems. Tuberculosis in the Ne gro is by far the greatest public health problem that the states have not been able to cope with, and the committee aims to have a good portion of this money allot ted to this work. Part of this grant is for the training of personnel for public health work. The physicians will be paid about $200 per month while studying and any physi cians interested may get in touch with any of the committee. Assur | ance was given the committee that the colored nurse in this new . field of public work is being tak en care of. Certain studies are to be made of the medical needs of Negro families.
