Y. Sept. 7.—The American Public Health association, in annual session here, held an open meeting this forenoon and then di- vided into sectional meetings. Papers covering a large range of subjects were read. Brown Arraigns Resorts. A strong arraignment of sanitary conditions of many summer resorts was presented by Dr. William Eustis Brown of York, Me. ‘““Temporary increases of population in summer resorts create city condi- tions,” he said. ‘“Because. such con- ditions prevail only part of the year, only partial provisions are made for meeting them.. We often find condi- tions approximating those of the crowded city with only camp methods for meeting them. This is true in spite of the fact that patrons of the summer resorts pay high prices for their accommodations and should re- ceive the greatest amount of health protection.”” Dr. Brown pointed out many dif- ficulties presented in sewering coast resorts, such as the difficulty of access to the sea; the possibility of polluting the bathing beaches; and the dif- ficulty of constructing cesspools be- cause of underground water. He also gave some attention to the town sit- uated away from the shore. The nearest brook is used by such a town as the overflow for cesspools and the making of open sewers. This affects the lowland at low water and results in the pollution of bathing beaches and the infection of fish, lobsters and oysters. Another subject of a similar nature was also on the day’s program, “The Refuse Disposal in Small Towns,” by George W. Simons, Jr., of Boston. Dr. Selby on Sanitation. A central bureau of industrial hy- giene composed of members of firms for the dissemination of knowledge for their mutual benefit was advo- cated by Dr. D. C. Selby of Toledo, O. Dr. Selby pointed out that many employers are installing departments of hygiene, sanitation and accident prevention. Employers of large num- bers of men could afford to do this, but the relatively high cost prohibits the employers of a few men from fol- lowing this example, “The fanctionis of a commerce club, or other civic organization, can very well be broadened to render this service, upon a mutual plan, for the employers of few men,” he said. “The service could take form in a separately organized, yet afflliated, bureau of industrial safety, sanitation and hygiene, asis now being organized in Toledo. “The activity of such a bureau would display itself in educational work, the exchange of information, the making of investigations or sur- veys and the making of recommenda- tions—in short, anything that would increase the efficiency of the employe, and lessen the hazard to his limb, health or life. i “By co-operation this bureau would become the local representation of the state industrial commission or de- partment of labor and the state de- partment of health in the work of accident and occupational disease prevention: “Low margins of profit now, more than ever, compel industrial efficiency. Compensation acts compel industrial safety, and sooner or later, will com- pel the prevention of occupational diseases. These are the economic rea- sons which justify a bureau of this kind. But above all, the great rea- son is that such a bureau would seek to conserve the lives and health of Post Carpet Company 219 Asylum St., Cor. Haynes St., Hfd.

As part of the campaign for main- tenance of health among factory em- ployes, Dr. W. Irving Clark of ‘Worcester, Mass.,, urged that em- ployers make use. of the pay en- velope as a means of distribution of good health literature, interesting the employe in all' that pertains to his miedical department. Every factory should have a special medical department directly under the superintendence of the board of directors of the plant, he declared, and a small hospital equipped for the maintenance of the efficiency of the workers comparable with the repair department for the maintenance of the efficiency of the machinery. He urged more thorough medical examinations of all employes. In ad- dition to an examination of a man when he applied for work, Dr. Clark declared there should be a second ex- amination two or three weeks after the man had been at work to ascer- [ tain fully his condition. ‘“Where it is possible,” he con- tinued, “it is advisable to have a fol- low-up system by which all men ab- sent from work for more than forty- eight hours are looked up in their home and deposit of their absence as- certained.” WAR HAS EFFECT ON TURKISH ROADS Ottorman Empire Has Rebuilt Over 1,000 Miles of Road (Correspondence of the Associated Press.) Constantinople, Sept. 7.—The ex~ tent to which the war has promoted good roads building in Turkey is in- dicated in @ report issued by the Otto- man ministry of war stating that 740 miles of roads have been graded, levelled anud resurfaced with gravel, and 382 miies of roads have been ma- cadamized by the “work battalions’ of the Turkizh army since the beginning of the wai. Furopean Turkey has benefitted greatly by these improvements, but the greater mileage of the new roads is in Analolia, the Asiatic Peninsula. The work has involved not only actual road ‘mprovement, but the construc- tion of hundreds of bridges and cul- verts. The total mileage of roads built by the Ottoman army during the war is 1,122 English miles. The work was done entircly by the older Turkish re- serves and by Armenians of military age who were not sent into the field because their loyalty to the Turkish flag was coubted. Work Well Done, From his own experience in trav- eling over several hundred miles of the new roeds, the Associated Press corrspondent can say that the work was well done on the whole. Much care was taken in finding the best grades. Wherever necessary the em- bankments were revetted and no labor was spared in making cuts where they Were necessaly to a favorable grade. This is especially true of the roads built between Adrianople and Con- stantinople and those built in the Taurus and Amanus mountain ranges. While the majority of the engineers and officers supervising the work were Turks, there were a few Armenians and Greeks and a number of mans and Austrians. Little Machinery. | Very little modern road-building machinery was used with the excep- | rock crushers.
