 Several of these boards under ex- isting statutes have wide powers to regulate the businesses of the practitioners under their jurisdic- ton. The commission recommends that there be. transferred to the state department of health the fol- lowing duties now carried on be SeparAt eboards:
 Regulation of the practice of .cptoenetTyz and the inspection of optical establishments; regulation Of the sale Of drugs, medicines, etc., and the inspection of pharmacies; inspection of undertaking estab. jishSnents: the sanitation of barber shops and barber schools: yegula. ton of the businesses of hairdress. eSs and cosmeticians and the inspec. ton oS tlaeir establishments, and the inspection Of training schools ter nurses. .--7.
 The commission would transfer to the labor department (to be known as the department of indus. trial relations under the commis. sion's proposed prograsn) the regu. lation Of hours of opening and clos ing barber shops.
 The commission finds under exist. ing practices wide diversity of fees imposed and the absence of any uniformity in the control of the re- ceipts, compensation and expendi- lures of the various boards. There are no statutory provisions for the control of the expenditures of six of the examining boards, the com- mission points. out, while the stat utes require only l2 of the boards to keep specified records of ther activities.
 It emphasizes the necessity of the fees collected by the various boards, which. 1t estimates, approach $l00,- 900 annually. and recommends that these fees be turned over to the state treasury by the secretary of the new department.
 Considering the Inethol of or- ganization and the manner Of oper- ation Of examing board, the ccm- mission states, there Is a serious question concerning the soundness of the policy under which the state vests in these boards important police and revenue powers.
