Finally as a further help to the really Tuberculous person, it is
suggested that all adult cases entered on the notification register
should automatically be entitled to come under the Insurance
Act, and should be entitled to all the benefits of that Act.
This latter suggestion raises many knotty points, and is bound to
provoke the scorn of the economist. It is, however, quite feasible
were the money forthcoming, and considering that the Tuberculous
person, in the large majority of cases, is at some time or other
supported by public money, the idea is not so ridiculous as it appears
to be.
