John D. TO TRAIN
HEALTH EXPERTS
Foundation Will Establish
School of Hygiene at
Johns Hopkins.

The Rockefeller Foundation is found
ing a school of preventive medicine
at Johns Hopkins University. 1t will
be known as the School Of Hygiene
and Public Health and will be ready
for occupancy in October, 1917.
Following the American Red Cross
crusade against typhus in Serbia and
the foundations work against the hook
worm, officers of the foundation looked
into the need for training men in these
lines and for public health boards. Its
investigation revealed lack of men
properly trained for these places.
Medical School to Compete.
An institute Of hygiene will be the
central feature of the new school. The
foundation will provide funds to erect
a suitable building near the hospital
and the medical laboratories of Johns
Hopkins University. In this building
will be housed various laboratories and
departments needed in such a school,
such as those of sanitary chemistry.
physiology, bacteriology and protozo-
ology, epidermiology and industrial
hygiene and vital statistics.
Additional facilities for instruction
and research will be supplied by the
schools of medicine, engineering and
social science, the hospital and other
departments OF the university. DR..
William II. Welch, now professor Of
pathology, and DR.. William II. Howell,
professor of physiology In Johns Hop
kins University, will organize the new
school. DR.. Welch will be the director.
Many Experts Consulted.
The School of Public Health will be
designed primarily to benefit those
who plan TO give their lives to scientific
sanitation. These health officers, here
tofore suffering from inadequate train
ing facilities, range from the health
commissioners of larger cities and dis
tricts and the higher technical experts
&c inspectors of all sorts and public
health nurses.
In studying the needs Of the Institute
OF Hygiene the Rockefeller Foundation
conferred with many experts Among
them were DR.. A. c. Abbott, DR.. Her
man VI. Biggs, Dr. Simon Flexner, Dr.
Victor G. Heiser, DR.. Edwin c. Jordan,
