Best Efforts PLEDGED
by Experts Who Will
Survey D. {. Health

Three experts in the field of public
health, selected to conduct a survey
Of local conditions beginning in Sep
tember, pledged their best efforts to
the study yesterday when they were
presented to the Washington Metro
politan Health Council, sponsoring
body. at meeting in the Mayfower
Hotel.
DR.. c. E. A. Winslow, retiring pro-
fessor of public health at the Yale
University medical school and editor
|of the American Journal of Public
Health, said he hoped the study,
which will take about four months,
would give the community an overall
picture Of its health needs.
This view from the outside" he
said, may be Illuminating as to gaps
existing in the present health struc-
ture Of the District and as to the
planning you may want to do."
Cites Other Surveys.
He referred to two previous sur
veys made Of local health conditions
and said the only trouble with them
was the absence of some organized
group like the present Health
Council.
with the existence Of this present
group he said, "any recommends
tions We may make actually can be
carried out"
Col. Ira v. Hiscock, who Is assum-
ing the PROFESSIONAL chair at Yale
being vacated by DR.. Winslow and
who has been on active duty here
since 1912 with the Once of Civil
Affairs. Sanitary Corps, said he was
not approaching the survey as an
expert, but intended simply ito make
an inventory and see where we 60
from here"
DR.. Claude w. Munger, director
Of st. Lukes Hospital in New York
City and president of the American
College of Hospital Administrators,
said he would be able to give con-
siderable time to the study when it
begins in September.
Will Name Committee.
A survey committee of nine men,
bers, headed by Vice Admiral Ross
T. McIntire, surgeon general of the
Navy, Is to be appointed within the
next week or two, according to DR..
Herbert P. Ramsey, chairman Of the
council. DR.. Ramsey said SIS 900 for
the study already had been set aside
by the Community War sFund for
the survey. and he expressed hope
that the additional $4,000 which
will be needed will be made available
by the war fund in the near future.
The Health Council is an adjunct
Of the Council of Social Agencies,
and its study will concentrate largely
on public health and hospitals. A
similar survey on social welfare con-
| ditions is to be made by the Council
of Social Agencies with funds which
will probably come from the Com
munity Chest.
