 and a score of other patriotic societies, such az the National Municipal League and some of the chapters of the Daught- CTS of the American Revolution. The entire membership of the associations which have passed resolutions favor ing the objects of the committee of one hundred, is upwards of two millions.
 Still more important is the political Endorsement which has been received. The Ohio state legislature passed a special resolution favoring the establish ment of a national bureau of health. The party platforms of some states, Ohio, Deleware and Connecticut con- tained blanks favoring such legislation. and to crown all, the national platforms of the republican, democratic and in dependence league parties contained health blanks, as recommended by the committee and It's allies.
 President Roosevelt advocated public health legislation in two of his messages to congress. President Taft has not alone indorsed the work of the com mittee but he has also afforded in his last message to congress the strongest public health recommendation in the history of the country, and he has in- timated that he would later send a spec ial message to congress on the same sub ject.
