PUBLIC HEALTH IS
 TO BE PROTECTED
Medical Association Discusses
 Preventative Measures

St. Louis. Mo. May 25.--Need ol greater expenditures and more ef, hciency in rural public health work and of more emphasis on the techni. cal qualifications Of health officers was represented by speakers before the section Of preventive medicine of tn American Medical association here today. Dr. Matthias Nicoli of the state health department of New York was one of those who contributed to . discussion of how scientific methods may prevent disease. Dr. A. J. War ren of Topeka, Kans, said that the application of sanitary and hygienic principles by municipal health off, cers has greatly Increased life ex- pectancy in urban districts during the last ten years.
 Dr. Warren added that in the same period rural districts have not pro- gressed satisfactorily. and expressed the belief that equal expenditures and efficient control in country districts would result in a marked lessening of the incidence of typhoid, smallpox, SNpSiSeicoio ouu "ilICH are excellently controlled in many American cities"
 Should Retain Offices.
 Health officers are frequently re- garded in the same manner as other holders of governmental positions, Dr. Nicoll said, without taking into account the technical training re- quired to qualify for the positions Health officers should hold their posi- tions subject only to retirement for cause. Since these positions are usually poorly paid, some provision should be made for pensioning those whose salaries are not sufficiently large to permit saving competence for old age or disability"
 Officials of public health depart ments, Dr. John D. Mclean, commis- sioner of health of Pennsylvania, as- serted must be trained through medi- cal and post graduate schools and through experience in the control of communicable diseases in the securing of healthful housing conditions.
