The Huron County TB Association Mass X-Ray Survey is now completed. -Final figures, which appear elsewhere in this issue, reveal that. the response, from one end of the County to the other was most encouraging. These results were possible - only because of the whole- hearted support and effort which men and women through- out Hurth by the hundreds contributed to the work of, or- ganizing the campaign. Without this support the results, of coure,.'would .have been negligible.' Because of the numbers involved, it is not possible 'to thank individually those who gave so freely of their time. Their thanks, however,, will lie in their knowledge, that by their efforts they haye made a major contribution to the war against tuberculosis.
