THE three man commission headed by H. H. Stevens did a useful job in proposing revised liquor laws for B.C. In the main, the proposals are sound and sensible. The people of BC. decided by a majority of three to two that they wanted legalized sale of hand liquor, by the glass. Insofar as the Stevens recommendations are In lin" with the vote of the people there is no ground for major criticism of the recommendations for the proposed new laws. But there is one important noint of principle on which the Stevens commission seems to me to have gone seriously wrong. It recommends that wherever ' " ' imam i - mlmT" Ijiaie ninital txlu f. an a-, ni of .tin' iinuii t.i saa'.lm. and faiiu tji mtc SITt ATIO.V In hrii'f tL'hiit I Itiiilt-tLNiji rtu.

It is, of course, tuberculosis. . There is reason to believe we are making headway in the fight. So, too, apparently is the rest of 'the country. "The lowest tuberculosis vdeath rate in m history" has tome to be the expected annual "tbiiiim-nt on statistics concerning the disease in -Canada, according to the Canadian .Tuberculosis Association. T, Naturally, any success against such a sinister 5-nemy gives deep satisfaction. It is a satisfaction 'which is justified as long as it does not blind the public to the fact that there were still more than 3,W) deaths from TB last year. This was more than TOie toli from all other communicable diseases combined. It would be unfortunate also if the falling deah "j-ate masked the fact that TB keeps at least 30,000 Canadians too ill to work, with all the unhappiness, TTiconvenience and loss of -wages accompanying .enforced idleness of a year, perhaps two years or 'even longer. '- '' Of th(jse, more than 18,000 are in sanatoria "luring any year. 'Not only these patients but their families are affected by the length of illness, for ralvcnce and restricted income put a strain on family Ilife. Early diagnosis, prompt treatment, daring urgery and new drugs have all contributed to the steady decline in the death rate from TB. Despite ;this, however, it is the leading cause of death in the 25 to 45 age group. The death rate has been halved 'm the last 10 years, but until the decline in the appearance of new cases matches the dropping Jdeath rate it is premature for Canadians to think "tuberculosis is teaten.
