112 • jNTorth Carolina Board of Health Minutes Aiiiuial 3Ieetin^ of the >orth Carolina State Koard of Health, Charlotte, North Carolina, April 21. 1920 All of the members of the Board were present with the exception of' Col. Ludlow and Dr. F, R. Harris. The following amendment to the quarantine rules and regulations was unanimously adopted: ''Resolved: That the regulation adopted on September 26, 1918, by the State Board of Health be hereby amended by omitting the words dysentery (bacillary and amoebic) cholera infantum (summer diarrhoea of infants),, lobar pneumonia, and broncho-pneumonia, so that it shall read as follows: That Paratyphoid fever and Trachoma are hereby declared infectious and contagious and are made reportable as provided for in Section 9, chapter 263, Public Laws of 1917." A communication from Miss Elizabeth G. Fox, Director of Public Health Nursing of the American Red Cross, to the Secretary regarding standard rules for public health nursing was read and fully discussed. The standard orders submitted by Miss Fox in her letter were approved for general nurses and for public health nurses in emergencies, but the Board expressed itself as being strongly and unanimously of the opinion that public health nurses should devote themselves largely to the work of prevention rather than medical relief, and to this end that the two units for infant hygiene and tuberculosis, as detailed in the official contract of the Board with the American Red Cross, be given, always, the right of way over bed side work. The Board discussed the grading of the Bulletins at some length, the object of the discussion being that the different members of the Board should be in accord as to methods of grading and understand the general principles to be followed as laid down in the original letter of the Secretary to the members of the Board, enclosing 'Tlan of Bulletins for 1920.'* The next matter brought to the attention of the Board was the plan of campaign for typhoid vaccination of the citizens of the State for the summer of 1920. The Board was asked by the Secretary to approve the employment of Mr. Taylor, a member of the faculty of Wake Forest, Professor of Bacteriology and Embryology, but who is not a medical graduate. Mr. Taylor, on the other hand, it was stated, thoroughly understands the principles of bacteriology and infection and in eighteen months service in the Army had given thousands of vaccinations. The Board approved the employment of Mr. Taylor. The Secretary then discussed his plan for the development of local health work in North Carolina upon a basis of financial equivalents. The Secretary went fully into the matter and the Board were unanimous and apparently enthusiastic in their approval of the development of State health work on the basis of financial equivalents. The Secretary next called to the attention of the Board the work of the North Carolina Landowners Association for malaria control. The Board of Health was deeply interested and ordered that the Secretary express to Mr. McGirt their deep interest and keen appreciation in the work of the North Carolina Landowners Association in the improvement of public health. Dr. Rankin then brought to the attention of the Board the request of Mr. W. A. McGirt, Vice-President and General Manager of the North Caro-
