On November 8th we observed the 52nd anniversary of a discovery that gave the medical world a powerful instrument for diagnosing tuberculosis in its early stages, before there are outward symptoms." "Roentgen's discovery of this powerful ray, which can penetrate flesh to reveal disease in the lung, has made possible the early discovery of tuberculosis.

The tuberculosis association's program is financed by Christmas Seal sale funds.
