Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twelfth Annual Report of the Department of Public Health of Massachusetts: Report of the Public Health Council, at the End of the Fiscal Year Closing November 30, 1926 The great majority of the inhabitants of the State are supplied with surface waters taken from natural lakes or ponds or from artificial reservoirs constructed for the purpose. In a very few cases these watersheds contain small Villages and most of them contain a number of farms, and for the protection of these watersheds rules and regulations have been established by this Department under the authority of legislative acts. Ever Since the beginning of the introduction of municipal water supplies 50 years or more ago the population of rural districts has been gradually decreasing and comparatively little difficulty has been encountered in protecting adequately the purity of public supplies. Furthermore, the acts under. Which water supplies have been introduced have nearly always contained authority for the municipality controlling the works to acquire lands about its sources of supply to protect them from occupation or from uses unfavorable to the purity of the supply. Provision is also made in the general laws whereby cities, towns and fire districts are authorized to take lands by eminent domain for the protection of their water supplies, subject to the approval of this Department. Under these laws many cities and towns have acquired such lands within their watersheds as were necessary to prevent their unfavorable occupation, but in the comparatively few cases where adequate protection has not been secured difficulties are arising in the proper protection of the sources of supply. The introduction Of motor transportation, furthermore, has made possible the occupation of lands formerly too remote from centers of population and industry to.permit of their use for occupation, and under these conditions the watersheds of water supplies near the large centers of population, and especially the neighborhood of the Metropolitan District, have rapidly become more populous in recent years. In consequence. Of the impracticability of adequately protecting their watersheds from a growmg population, a serious question has arisen in a number of cities and towns as to the practicability of continuing the use of existing sources of supply, and in some of them filtration has already been resorted to or is under consideration. The use of water more or less directly polluted by sewage and other wastes of human life and industry is undesirable, no matter how effectively it may be treated for the purpose of neutralizing the effects of pollution. It is fortunate that so many of the public water supplies of the State have been protected by the foresight Of the managers of these works who have secured such adequate control of their watersheds that they can continue to be used with safety for an indefinite time. The continuation of this wise policy will no doubt secure such further protection as is the case of most of the sources of supply in use.

This book was released on 2018-03-02 with total page 650 pages. Available in PDF, EPUB and Kindle. Book excerpt: Excerpt from Twenty-Second Annual Report of the Department of Public Health of Massachusetts, 1936: Report of the Public Health Council Chapter 247 of the Acts of 1936 provided for an Approving Authority consisting of the Secretary of the Board of Registration in Medicine, the Commissioner of Education, and the Commissioner of Public Health, to pass on the qualifications of applicants for registration as qualified physicians. This requires the setting up of standards for colleges giving pre - medical courses and for medical schools In order that their graduates In medicine may be eligible to take the examination for a license to practice in the Commonwealth. Chapter 144 of the Acts of 1936 provided for the payment of military and other emergency expenses in safeguarding the lives and preserving the health and safety of the inhabitants in the areas of the Commonwealth damaged by floods, and carried an appropriation of $7 The administration of this relief was carried out under the direction of a board consisting of the adjutant-general, the Commissioner of Public Health, the Commissioner of Public Welfare, and the Commissioner of Public Safety. The board had many meetings to pass on claims brought by communities and individuals who suffered damage as a result Of the floods. Chapter 430 of the Acts of 1936 amended certain provisions of law relative to the determination and establishment of minimum fair wage standards for women and minors. The Minimum Wage Commission thus established was placed In the Department of Public Health under the control of the Commissioner of Public Health, and consists of the Commissioner of Labor and Industries who shall act as Chairman, the Commissioner of Public Health and the Commissioner of Public Welfare. The reason for this change in the statute, taking the Minimum Wage Commission out of the Department Of Labor and Industries and placing it under the Department of Public Health, was because a similar law in New York State had been declared unconstitutional by the United States Supreme Court. It was reasoned that if a minimum wage law was based upon the assumption that un reasonably low wages would result in impairing the health of the workers it would be considered a health measure and the Courts would uphold its constitutionality. After the passage of the act, the Commission was organized and new wage boards have been appointed representing the employer, the employee and the public to consider the twenty-two trade classifications. When these boards report their findings and recommendations, hearings are held by the Commission who approve or disapprove the recommendations relating to wage scales and hours of labor for the different trades.
