Recommendation No. looks to q tentative
reorganization Of q part Of the work Of the
physicians TO the poor The Central Dispen-
sary and Emergency Hospital 10 ready to ac-
cept the conditions offered and to do the work
Indicated. The reasons for the change have
been already outlined in a note TO Com
missioner Ross dated June ~, 1892. They
are In brief, (a) economy, a saving Of $500 ON
the salary ROLL better service, since the work Of
the physician to the poor in these two districts
would be brought under the direct supervision
of the attending staff of the dispensary as well
as under that of the health officer.
Co.. A good deal Of overlapping
work now done by the physicians
new arrangement be avoided OF course the
assistant resident physician would be subject to
the orders of the health officer and removable
by him, the same as any other physician to the
poor. sincerely hope the experiment may be
tried.
Recommendation No. 2 is the same as last
year.
Recommendations Nos. 8, and call for
slight increases in the amounts heretofore al
lotted to the three dispensaries named. A
closer knowledge Of the work done leads me to
think that such increases are called for.
Recommendation No. is the same as last
year. For reasons set forth on pages 24-5 of
my last annual report it seems to me inadvisa-
BILE to make practice Of subsidizing private
institutions for the aged. ! fear that hereafter
even the small sum granted thfs Home for
Aged Women may be cited as an en-
barrassing precedent. Therefore, while en-
tertaining very high opinion Of
the devotion and self-sacrifce Of those
who manage this home still am persuaded
that it would be better for all concerned that
they should get along without public help.
recommend that when the money is paid them
this year they be infortoed that it will not be
the policy Of the Commissioners to make Q
similar allowance hereafter.
cHILDREN's AID SOCIETY.
Recommendation No. advises the appor-
| tionment Of s500 to the Children's Aid Society,
which has not heretofore received any public
! subsidy. This society receives large number
Of children from the police and Police Court
and SO cares for them o. to make
it unnecessary that they should be
sent to the reform school or other in
stitution. It is especially ON Judge Nmball's
representation Of the usefulness Of the society
that l make the present Recommendation,
though Of my own knowledge I know its methods
to be wise and its usefulness great. It need not
be feared that new and permanent burden
will be added to the revenues Of the District by
this apportionment, since at the close Of the
present fiscal year the board Of children guard
ians recently created by Congress will be in op-
Grafton. and then the Children's Aid Society,
in common with the other private child-saving
institutions OF the city, win deal With that board
and receive public money in proportion, and in
proportion only, to public service rendered
Recommendation No. Q explains itself.
