Dr.. Beach on Health

Speaking under the caption "Does

South Portland Open Forum last evo-
ming. DR.. Sylvester J. Beach, member
OF the executive committee Of the
Maine Public Health Association. made
plain his convictions that unless the
State department of health received q
fairly liberal appropriation for carry
ing on it's work Maine would within a
decade be enjoying very poop health
indeed. DIR. Beach said that there has
been considerable opposition to the
bill OF the health department now be-
fore the Legislature because of the
theory that it was some sort of a
camouflaged salary bill. Although
that attitude was a mistake, said Dr.
Beach, nevertheless it is true that a
larger appropriation Will be needed to
maintain the department during the
next two years than the present one
even If no additional work is taken up,
simply because of the fact that there
is a greater demand for health work
ers than there is supply.-Portland
