Twentieth Biex^n'ial Kepokt 21 with l>r. Taylor as the director, the budget being contributed forty per cent by the county, forty per cent by the State, and twenty per cent by the International Health Board. The progress of the work, and the results achieved, proved so satisfactory that in January 1923, an additional unit was organized in Beaufort County, and in May Craven and Bladen counties were added to the list. Detailed resumes <^f this work is given elsewhere in this report, but it should be stated here that the success of the intensive malaria control measures has been even greater than was anticipated. While specializing on malaria control measures, the countj' units have at the same time carried on a general program of public health work. The International Health Board has continued its cooperative aid in giving twenty per cent of the unit budget, and has continued the loan of Dr. Taylor, who has directed the work. In June the resignation of Dr. J. S. Mitchener as director of the Bureau of Medical Insi>ection of Schools was accepted, and Dr. Boy C. Mitchell, who had been engaged in special educational field work, was appointed to the vacancy. 1923-1^4. The Committee on Municipal Health Department Practice of the American Public Health Association requested the Secretary of the Board to become field director for the Committee in making a study of municipal health practices in the United States for the purpose of working out with and for the Committee a basis or set of principles on and through which city health departments could be given classification or grading, and further for giving such additional time as might be needed in assisting such departments in improving their organization and provision for work. The request was brought before a special meeting of the Executive Committee of the Board, and it directed the Secretary to take advantage of the opix)rtunity offered to become acquainted intimately and broadly with health administration in the cities of the country, and at the same time continue to exercise general supervision of, and executive control over, the work of the Board. In January the Secretary established official headquarters in New York City for the work of the Committee, and the general organization of the executive staff of the Board was continued with the Assistant Secretary, Dr. G. M. Cooper, as administrative or director. During the period of his absence the Secretary has kept in close touch with the work of the Board through frequent reports and a number of visits to the office for conferences with members of the staff. For the more efficient administration of the field activities of the Board the four districts into which the State had been divided the previous were consolidated into two, with Dr. E. F. Long and Dr. H. A. Taylor as Deputy State Health Officers, as directors, assisted respectively by Dr. C. X. Sisk, formerly health officer of Forsytli County, and Dr. George Collins, formerly health officer of Mecklenburg County. At the annual meeting for the Board in April further steps were taken towards making effective the policy of decentralization adopted the previous year. This policy looks, in a broad way, to the diminish-
