BOARD OF HEALTH BULLETIN
EFFICIENCY IN PUBL &c HEALTH ADMINISTRATION.

II you want better health, pay the
price. Money spent in protecting
your health and the lives of the peo-
pie is the best of all investments.
Don't be too eager 10 pass more
health laws, but provide sufficient
means to enforce those already on
the statute books. This is, in brief,
the message sent by the United states
Public Health Service to two States
separated by several thousand miles.
II is a well known axiom that pub
lie health is within certain limits
a purchaseable commodity. and that
each community practically fixes by
its sanitary policy its sickness and
death rates from such proventable
diseases as typhoid fever. malaria,
tuberculosis, smallpox, etc. The best
indication of the adequacy or made
quacy with which a community is
handling its health problems is shown
in the ability Of the existing health
organization to lessen the prevalence
of sickness.
A great many States and cities have
of late expressed a desire to be made
familiar with their assets and def
ciencies in this respect and in COM
pliance with requests and from the
proper authorities, the United States
Public Health Service has been con-
Quoting a series of Investigations of
public health administration and leg
islation. The most recent of these
Investigations has been made in the
States of West Virginia and Wash

just been published. The studies IN
West Virginia were made at the di-
rect request of the governor. the Hon.
H. d. Hatfield and Washington at the
request of the State Board Of Health.
The reports cover in detail the re-
qusites of efficient health organiza-
ton and point out certain reforms
which should be carried out in order
to obtain the best results. In the in
terests Of economy and efficiency, for
instance, all sanitary work, be it child
hygiene. industrial sanitation. school
hygiene. milk control. etc. should be
centralized and co-ordinated under
properly equipped State Departments
of Health. Local health administra-
tion must be strengthened by the Gnu
ployment of health officers giving
their entire time to their duty and
fully responsible to the State De-
partment of Health.
While the meritorious work ac-
complished by the recent authorities
is recognized, it is stated that the
adoption and enforcement Of meas
ures for the protection Of the public
health in these States have not kept
pace with their growth in wealth and
population. Neither of the two States
has been sufficiently liberal in its ap-
preparation for health work. For ex-
ample. in 1914. both Washington. with
a land area of 66,S36 square miles
and a population of about 100000
inhabitants. and West Virginia, with
an area of 24.O22 square miles and
population of over 300 900 inhabi-
tants only $4,000 each for the use
of the State Board OF Health, while
Maryland with an area of 9.941 square
miles and about the same population
as West Virginia. appropriated S145.-
! 600. and Florida. with a much smaller
area and population than Washing
ton, appropriated over SS0,000 for the
same purpose. The Public Health
1 Service holds that at least . per cent
of the public revenue should be spent
for sanitary work. since from 10
other expenditure is so great profit
derived.
