The State Board Of Health has
been able TO obtain more results in
the improvement of public health in
the biennial period from March 81,
1919, to March 81, 1921, than in any
previous ten years Of it's existence.
II. F.. James, State Examiner and In
spector, declared in his recent report
TO Governor Edwin p. Morrow, after
completing his investigation into the
work Of the board for the period in
question.
"T'he records indicate" the re-
port also states, "that our State
Health Department has secured the
cooperation Of all agencies interested
in public health and welfare in the
State 20 a degree not attained in any
other State and at the smallest per
capita cost Of any State in the Union
which is doing effective work.
"The work Of the board has been
managed efficiently and economically.
It's members, who receive no salaries,
and its officers and employees, who
receive smaller salaries than those
paid in any other State, have per-
formed a patriotic service for which
they deserve the gratitude Of the
people Of Kentucky"
The features Of the two years
which Mr.. James especially praised
were the development Of eight full
time county health departments, the
establishment Of a school of public
health in Connection with the Uni
versity Of Louisville, the recognition
by the State Of its responsibility in
the relief Of trachoma and the organ
ization of a State Bureau for the
of the disease, the inaug.
uration Of course in physical educa.
ton for the common schools, and the
purchase Of a modern Office building
in Louisville as a home for all the ac-
tivities Of the State Board Of Health.

Neutrality-suspicious. for relieving
the estimated shortage Of 100000
homes throughout tire country through
diversion OF a greater proportion Of
the nations SO 600 100000 in savings
deposits into home buildings are un-
der consideration by Secretary Her
bert G. Hoover. The Commerce Sec
retary considers that there has been
a tendency during the past few years
for savings to find their way into COM
mercial paper, bonds and similar Sc
cur4tIes rather than into home build
ing, while a critical housing situation
has developed, with about III families
for each 100 homes The chief reli-
ance of the country in the necessary
financing of Iome building, In the
opinion of Mr.. Hoover, must be the
savings institutions.
with a total Of So, ,0OO, 100000 avail
able from these sources, he believes
II will be found, after eliminating
building and loan societies and actual
savings banks, who devote about so
per cent of their deposits to home
building. that the savings depart
ments Of national banks, state banks,
trust companies and insurance COM
panies, comprising more than one-half
OF the total, probably do not loan more
than 10 or Is per cent of their savings
assets In housing.
Mr.. Hoover has suggested that 40
or so per cent Of the $16O,0OOy0OO Of
deposits in postal savings banks could
be diverted to this purpose, as well as
a larger proportion Of the savings
deposits OF national banks through
amendment to the Federal Reserve act.
II believe" Mr.. Hoover said. that
we should have a much more stable
economic system II we had more reg
ular proportion OF our savings avail
able to home building. There is, in
fact, no other economic fund than our
saving institutions from which money
can be obtained"
