328 A HISTORY OF NATIONAL TUBERCULOSIS ASSOCIATION 



Livingston Farrand, which has done incalculable good not only 

 in taking care of the immediate needs, but in stimulating an 

 active anti-tuberculosis propaganda and in establishing clinics 

 and sanatoria throughout France. In the fall of 1920 Dr. Biggs 

 took over temporarily the direction of the General Medical 

 Department of the League of Red Cross Societies, with headquar- 

 ters at Geneva, Switzerland. 



Well may it be said of Dr. Biggs that his lifelong enthusiasm 

 and devotion to the tuberculosis cause and to preventive medicine 

 in general have had the widest and most beneficent influence, not 

 only throughout the United States, but throughout the entire 

 civilized world.
