EDUCATION IN HEALTH.
In a leading article on this subject, the Daily Telegraph, says;--
Sir George Newman's new memoran, dunt on the need for public education in health deserves the careful attention of every local authority and at every thoughtful citizen. In the long years since Distach suggested as a motto for the early sanitary reformers "Sanitas, sanitatum, omnia sanitas," the hygienic sciences have made immense strides Medicine, as Sir David Bruce reminded the British Association in his presiden tial address last month, has conquered many diseases that have long plagued mankind. Sanitary engineering, with the help of the bacteriologist, bas been developed to a high state of perfection. Public authorities, both national and local, are fully conscious of the import ance of providing proper drainage and good water supply, of keeping the

attained. Year by year the nation still has to suffer much sickness and mortality that are, humanly speaking. preventable. Epidemies spread and taks their heavy toll of victims when they might be checked at the outset. Thou- sands of women die in childbirth for lack of proper precautions. The enth rate among infants. though far lower than it used to be, is still much too high: last year alone in England and Wales 2.3 children died in infancy from diseases that might have yielded to skill- ed treatment. The contrast between the triumphant advance of medical and 'sani- tary knowledge and the state of the public health shows that some important factor has been overlooked by the doctors" and engineers and administrators who are engaged in the battle with disease. The truth is that, in their eagerness to save the commipuity from the conse- quences of its ignorance or lack of care, they have neglected the task of educating the public in the laws of health, so that it may know how to protect itself.

As the Chief Medical Other of the Jistry of Health, Sir George Newman will not be accused of harbouring any pre- judice against the authorities, whether" national or local, or of undervaluing his with- own profession. But he sees that
enlightened public opinion the out an

it advocates. He gives, full credit to the beneficent effects of ontdoor exercise for Wed. 19 women and of the more reasonable dress which they now adopt; he observes Thur. that chlorosis, a form of arraia which among women und was once common girls, is now disappearing, and, that their general health is much improved. Sir George Newman remarks on the rapid diminution of the habit of spitting in streets and trains and elsewhere, through the fore of public opinion which has been mobilised by the notices and posters displayed in connection with the crusade against consumption. He admits, also, of that there is a rise in the standard
is cleanliness as whole. Yet, when all said, very much remains to be done be fore, the faasses of the people will fully observe the modern hygienic code. They have yet to learn that farther progress depends mainly on themselves, and that the prevention of disease is becoming a personal concera rather than a matter for central or local bodies. The problem. for the time being, is thus one of educa tion, and Sir George Nowinan pleads carnestly for a concerted effort on the part of the local authorities to rouse and instruct public opinion on the subject of health. The children attending the ele- meatary schools, in London, at any rate. and in the great cities, acquire an ele mentors knowledge of hygiene, and the
*
inspection and the work of the school clinics give their parents au ob- ject-lesson in the value of preventive treatment in cases of rickets, defective sight, bad teeth, and even mental wenk ness. But the young people and the adults, have also to he approached, and converted to a full sense of their respon sibility for their own health. It is not an easy task, but it is by no means im- possible. Much has been done by official propaganda to check the ravages of phthisis or venerent discise, and ener getic medical officers of health and sani- tury inspectors can, we feel sure, find ways and means of educating the public if they are encouraged to do so.
WHITE POPULATION OF S. AFRICA. DANGER OF DISAPPEARING.
A Cape Town message to The Times'
"The report of the Census Director, which has just been issued, is an omin- ous document from the standpoint of White survival in South Africa. Mr. Cousins, the Census Director, now Un- der-Secretary for Labour, insists on the increase of the non-White population in the Union, as compared with the White, in spite of the fact that in the infuezys opidemic of 1918 500.000 natives died-s fact not published bitherto
Mr. Cousins's conclusion is that the European race can only hold its own numerically in South Africa by seeking accessions from abroad. Failing this. it must for ever abandon the prospect of maintaining a White civilization, except as a proportionately diminishing min ority in face of an inoressing and ultim ately overwhelming majority. It may then be forced to abandon its domination or even abandon the country. It may accept the solution of degeneracy, by per
Euro- hybrid petuating a Eur African pean and African civilization. In 30. years, on the present 5gares, the Whites in South Africa will number 4,500,000, while the Banty will bare increase by 13,000,000. Acceptance of a Eur African solution would involve the dishonouring of the racial ideals tenaciously held by the White races.
