North Carolina Board of Health 31 that. Dr. Bender commented that the State Board of Health might be glad to have this committee if a lot of polio breaks out this summer and other Executive Committee members seemed inclined to agree with him. Dr. Dixon introduced Dr. Ellen Winston and Dr. John Ferrell, who had joined the group to present the proposal of the State Health Council for first aid service for State employees. Dr. Winston gave the background and described the proposed plan worked out by a committee of the State Health Council for a preventive health service for State employees for the purpose of reducing absenteeism, reducing labor turnover, improving employees' morale and greater working effectiveness. It was suggested that one station, under the supervision of the State Board of Health, be staffed with one nurse, on a pilot basis, for State employees in Raleigh only. Dr. Ferrell described the State program in Connecticut, the only state which has such a program, and also commented briefly on the emergency service in Washington which was developed and supervised by the U. S. Public Health Service for Federal employees. After much discussion. Dr. Lawrence suggested that the matter be taken under advisement and referred to the full Board. Dr. Foard reported to the Committee that he and Dr. Norton just found out about an industry tax collected for industrial health purposes of about $150,000 per annum which has been going into the State General Fund. He also mentioned the fact that because of the low salaries paid by the State, the Industrial Hygiene Section has been without an engineer since the death of Steve Marsh last July. Dr. Dixon suggested that we find out several things; first, when that tax was levied, how long it has been collected, and why it was collected and how much is collected annually, if it was levied for the purposes of industrial health, who has that money been assigned to? Dr. Foard called attention to the growing hazard of the use of atomic energy in industrial plants, and the need for more personnel in the Industrial Hygiene Section. Dr. Foard recommended that the State Board of Health take under consideration a resolution that would recommend adequate support from an industrial hygiene appropriation standpoint. Dr. Dixon requested a report on answers to the above questions to the next meeting of the Board on May 2nd. Adjourned for lunch. The next item taken up by the Committee was discussion of the Haywood scroll. It was left up to Dr. Hamilton to have the scroll made up and to have it at the Conjoint Session at Pinehurst for presentation. Dr. Dixon took personal responsibility for the members of the Board taking care of the cost, which will be about $100.00. Mr. Roddey Ligon, of the Institute of Government, Chapel Hill, made a progress report on bringing health regulations up-to-date. He said that suggested changes in Chapter 130 will be in Dr. Norton's hands in a few days. Other areas outside of Chapter 130 will be taken up with the State Department of Agriculture and any other departments involved before any changes can be made. Dr. Dixon told him that a committee of the
