STATE HEALTH BOARD
 DISCUSSED CHILD PARALYSIS.
Members Meet Once a Month to Talk
 Over States Health.

The state board of health held a monthly meeting Friday afternoon at the Hotel Garde in New Haven. In addition to the holding of the regular quarterly meetings, the members of the board now come together once a month for the discussion of matters relating to the health of the state.
 The principal business of the meet ing related to the policy of the board in regard to infantile paralysis. The board also discussed it's budget for the next two years with the view of preparing statement for the state board of finance and later to be con sidered by the committee on appro- priations, of which the finance board will form a part, at the next session of the general assembly. The board was given an appropriation of about $12,0G0 at the last session, but it is believed that much larger appropria- ton will be necessary to carry on its work in the future. Its scope is en- larging and this calls for more money than has been at the disposal of the board heretofore.
