A community that cuts corners on finances for preventive and health promotion work obstructs the estao- lislament of stable long-term health program for its people, &C., cording to Franklin M. Foote, M. D., Director of the Bureau of Local Health Administration, who empha- sized in the state bulletin of the State Department of Health that the foundation for such a program requires a local health department budget of at least $l.00 per capita. A summary of tax expenditures made by 169 towns, cities and bor- oughs in the state for public health in 1889 discloses that about eleven per cent provided this amount. Other expenditures for health varied from low of one cent per capita per year to a high of $2.06.
 Figures Exceeded
 It is significant, Doctor Foote pointed out, that Hartford, New Haven and Greenwich approached or exceeded the figures judged by authorities to be the minimum necessary for the ground work of an official health agency. Privae health agencies do much to supplement their work. This year these cities tied for first award in their respec- tive population classes in the Health Conservation Contest of the United States Chamber of Commerce.
 There is a tendency for towns in the 2,50o-20, 900 population class to get along with one public nurse when two or more are needed, Doc. tor Foote reported. The usual stand ard is one public nurse to 1,500- 1900 people. In towns of the 5,000- 10000 population group, there is a further shortsighted tendency to cojntinue as long as possible with out trained sanitary inspector.

bI DANNON b. DESk1OAN NEA Service Special Correspondent. Colorado Springs, Colo, July 15.-- Trails blazed by such explorers and adventurers as Fr. Francisco Silves- tre velez Escalante and the scout Kit Carson will be followed by Wen- dell l.. Willkie-if Colofado's Gov. Ralph l.. Carr has his way.
 Tracing the itinerary tentatively mapped by Governor Carr, Willkie, his wife and son Phillip would visit these spots:
 First they motor across the conti- mental divide to Gunnison in the heart of the big game country. Dur ing their days stop at Gunnison, the Willkies try their skill at trout fishing. At Almont, they will be guests at 8 fish fry.
 WILL VISIT
 MINING CENTERS
 Delegations of ranch owners and cowpunchers, many of whom have to make the long trip from summer range to Almont by saddle horse greet the Willkies during their stay there.
 From the Gunnison district, Gov ernor Carr plans to lead the Will kies west and south to the San Juan mountains, a rugged, generous land that yielded Tom Walsh, father Of Evelyn Walsh Mclean, and other hardy prospectors fortunes in gold and silver.
 Willkie will be button-holed by old timers who never miss a chance to recite a bit of San Juan political history of the winter of 1873-74 when Alfred Packer, the Colorado maneater, consumed five prospect. ing companions and was sentenced

tive sanitary district as authorized by General Statutes, groups Of towns may secure economically such an inspector, as well as public health nursing, dental hygiene and other health services. Under this arrangements, funds are available through the State Department of Health to, supplement local appro- priations for these services under a full-time health officer.
 As the official community health agency, the health department should at least provide the funda- ton for effective acute communic- able disease control, general sanita- ton, supervision of milk, water and food supplies, vital statistics and medical leadership in maternal and child health. This is difficult to do on a budget of less than $1.00 per capita, Doctor Foote stressed.
