In order to save workingmen from
i'll health resulting from insanitary
working conditions and to save manu-
facturers from mourning claims from
damages 1t is necessary for the Public
Health Service to examine physically
both the workmen and the plant In
which they work. Some manufactur-
ers and many workmen fear examina-
ton, believing that II will be used to
make trouble for them, and not realiz-
ing that undiscovered defects in either
plant or man will surely lead to seri-
Gus reults. To such the Public Health
Service says that 1t is strictly neutral
and that 1t will not tell tales" Its
object is to improve the health of the
men and to enable the factory to save
money by making its employees
healthy by giving them healthy work
ing conditions.
