10 The Health Bulletin April, 1946 Inspections were made of all War Food Administration Labor Camps and assistance was given on water supplies and sewage disposal. Complete inspections and surveys were made of all interstate-carrier watering points and water supplies in cooperation with the U. S. Public Health Service. Considerable time and effort was given to the design of abattoirs by the engineers, as well as handling of problems on water supply and waste disposal for these abattoirs. Plans were developed in cooperation with FHA for procedure to follow regarding water supplies and sewage disposal of houses insured with FHA loans. 'There has been a large volume of this work and it is expected to increase. Surveys were made and assistance given regarding waste disposal and water supplies for Prisoner of War Camps. Much time has been devoted to the review of preliminary plans, reports, and applications for funds for nonfederal Public Works improvements covering the construction of water and sewage facilities. The majority of the applications approved by the Federal Works Agency were for planning funds for the preparation of plans and specifications for water and sewage improvements. Through cooperation of the State Department of Conservation and Development and the U. S. Geological Survey, the laboratory of the U. S. Geological Survey was moved from State College to the State Laboratory of Hygiene and complete chemical analysis are being made of all public water supplies in the state. Improvements in filing of all plans for water and sewage systems in North Carolina were made through installation of new steel filing cases. All plans approved by the State Board of Health of these facilities are on file at the State Board of Health. A mobile laboratory is being constructed to be used on milk, water, and stream sanitation. Equipment has been ordered and the unit is expected to be ready for operation by July 1946. No personnel for operation is now available, but we hope to secure someone by the time the Unit is completed. Special investigations and problems were handled as routine, such as two tropical storms on the east coast, floods, polio hospital sewage disposal, droughts effecting public water supplies, and special water and sewage disposal problems. Sanitation. Considerable time was given to selecting and training sanitarians for local health units. Most of the men formerly with local units, who have returned from military service, are accepting positions outside of public health and we are having to train new men to replace them. Special investigations were made of a number of sanitation problems for the Army and Navy. Much emphasis has been placed on school sanitation and a suggested design of school lunchroom was prepared with engineering notes and specifications. Much interest has been manifested by school authorities in this program. Assistance regarding school canneries was also given considerable attention. Numerous problems relating to OPA and abattoirs were handled as were other special problems brought about by the War and Government regulations. Surveys of all State institutions were made and presented to officials with varying degrees of results being accomplished. Studies are in process of being made regarding revision and clarification of all sanitary regulations. A number of food handlers courses were given in cooperation with U. S. Public Health Service and local health departments. Complete sanitary surveys of all summer camps have been made for the purpose of preparing an approved list for distribution. Many other general sanitation prob-
