Des Moines, Jan. 1.-THE state board
of health, with the president of the
state university, is engaged in trying to
straighten out matters as to how to
administer the law as to prevention OF
unsanitary conditions and consequent
danger from epidemics in Iowa.
The legislature provided a small ap.
preparation for an "epidemiologist." In
the bills as originally drawn this was
to be a part of the equipment of the
state board Of health. The idea was to
employ some one to make a special
study Of epidemics and to so from
place to place under direction of the
state board to investigate as to SAN
itary and other conditions making for
epidemics. At the same time state
sanitary engineer was provided and the
state board was authorized to make
investigation as to pollution of streams
and kindred matters relating to the
health and general welfare of the Iowa
people.
Appointed by University.
But the appropriation was slipped
over into the bill relating to the state
university so that apparently the epi-
demiologist is attached to the state
laboratory.
Accordingly the president Of the
state university has named q state cpl
demioiogist in the person of one DR..
Woods, of Indianapolis.
Now the state board of heaitht is
making regulations for state health
work and devising a scheme for cor
