BOARD EMP HAT|C
IN DENOUNCING IT
Disapproves Practice by Which
City Physicians Charge Pupils
for Vaccination.
CUSTOM NEVER APPROVED
Resolution Says That Twenty
five Cent Fee System Was
Never Endorsed.

Emphatic disapprovar' was recorded
by the City School Board last night
against the practice, reported to it,
that city physicians We're charging
pupils OF the public schools % cents
each for vaccination in the school
buildings
While the School Board was in ses-
sion, discussing and adopting reso-
luton declaring that 1t had never In
dorsed and distinctly disapproved OF
any such charge, representatives of
the seven physicians to the poor ap-
peared before the Council Committee on
Ordinance. Charter and Reform on the
floor below in the City Hall, ask
ing that their pay be increased from
$500 to $1,000 per year, each, on the
ground Of the large growth of the
work in the public schools. Formerly
the physicians to the poor We're paid
$500 each, but 1t was increased to $500
in 1905, on the ground that the physi-
clans should look after the health of
public school children.
Pupils Forced to Pay.
1t has been repeatedly reported to
the School Board that it has become a
custom for city physicians to charge
pupils a 25-cent vaccination fee when
the service was performed In the
school buildings, the vaccination be-
ing practically compulsory. as the
pupils would otherwise be compelled
to withdraw from the schools. The
board adopted the following resolu-
ton:
THAT the custom Of the city ply.
sicians of charging 25 cents for vac
clnatins pupils in the public schools
has not been indorsed by the School
Board, and receives its emphatic dis
approval"
There are seven district physicians
to the poor OF. the city elected by the
City Council, sitting in joint session
for term of two years. Each re-
ceives in addition to his salary a tele-
phone at the expense OF the city, and
the services required in no way in
terfere with his private practice.
They are not under the jurisdiction of
the Committee on Relief or the Poor,
