state health ollleer. wool to OreenTille
recea^y where he will aid la organlz-
iag^a couatjr board of health for the
purpose of establishing a full time
county health ofleer. This step of
orgaalsatioo follows on the act pass
ed by the general assembly permit-
flag the orgaalsatloa of such a body
la that county, and Greenville Is the
; first county to respoad to the cam
paiga that has been wgged by the
V sute board of health for the creation
of full time county health officers.
Dr. Hayne before leaving expressed
the hope that other counties would
immediately take up the question of
the advisability of having county
health officers, as the step would
. mean much toward Improvement of
general health conditions throughout
the state. He pointed out that North
Carolina has 12 whole time county
health officers, none of whom Is re-/
reiving a salary of less than 92.<
and that already they had rendc
Invaluable service to the state board
of health.
Dr. Hayne will direct his effort* to
ward thd 1 creation of a county board
of health In Hlchland county, which
he hopes In the near future will follow
the example of GreenviHe county.
