Hartman, Jeremiah Macchi; Sanitary Inspector, Francis McDonough; Plumbing Inspectors, Maurice J. Quin- lan, John E. Higgiston; Board of Health Nurse, Mrs. Anna McKenna; Physician, Dr. Francis H.

In Memoriam


MAURICE J. QUINLAN.


Faithful and efficient member of the Board of Health for twenty-seven years.


Died September 10, 1932.


117


On September 10, 1932, Maurice J. Quinlan, who had been a member of the Board of Health for twenty seven years, died after faithful service in that office.


Mr. Quinlan was a kindly man who had performed his duties with the purpose in mind of having the people of Milford made as comfortable as possible.


Through the death of Mr. Quinlan this depirtment and the Town of Milford, suffered a distinct loss.


At the very beginning of the year we realized that it would be difficult to administer health conditions on account of the industrial situation in this community, but we felt that it was our duty to protect and safeguard the lives and physi- cal happiness of the inhabitants of the town. This could only be accomplished, in our opinion, by retaining our efficient and well trained personnel, and for that reason we re-elected all the present staff of public health workers, knowing full well that their experience and conscientiousness would give to the townspeople a wealth of physical training which is so charac- teristic of public service rendered in the field of this special Jine of endeavor.


Early in the year we carefully went into detail with each employee, regarding their duties, and made it plain, to them that we expected everything to be done to minimize sickness and disease. Results show that each and every member of our staff took to heart our desires to protect the people during the pending crisis, and as a result, we have succeeded in having one of the best years, from a physical standpoint, in the his- tory of public health activities.


CONTAGION AND TUBERCULOSIS.


Public health rules and regulations are made for the mutual protection of each and every individual in the com- munity, and it becomes necessary for us to keep reminding and cautioning the sick, especially those quarantined with com- municable diseases about the precious rights of others, to be free from contamination, because of wilfull neglect or careless disobedience of restricted families.


No matter what we try to do locally, the fact remains


118


that with the inter-communicating methods of travel today' our efforts will be of no avail unless every other community tries to prevent disease from gaining a foothold in their var- ious localities. This can only be done by strict and careful interpretation of public health law in the matter of quarantine.


During the past year we were confronted with the possi- bility of an epidemic on account of a typhoid carrier. There were two cases of typhoid fever, who we feel were contacts of this carrier. One case was taken care of at home and the other case was hospitalized in Worcester, Mass. On Septem- ber 2, 1932, the Board of Health adopted regulations for the control of this disease. On December 13, 1932, the Public Health Council has declared an infection of the gall bladder of typhoid origin, a disease dangerous to the public health and therefore reportable. This was necessary in order that local Boards of Health might have authority to control the non-co- operative typhoid carrier.


Our tuberculosis program is well-known; the efforts we employ, and the clinics that are available. Physicians of this community, having patients under their care, whom they sus- pect may have tuberculosis, can secure a consultation, together with an X-ray examination, if considered necessary, at our clinic at the Milford Hospital.


Tuberculosis is insidious; it creeps upon its victims unher- alded by the tempestuous onset of the dread epidemic disease. Its course is unattended with repulsive physical stigmata. It does not mow its victims down in groups. It is always with us, has always been with us, and its role of easy familiarity has robbed it of its terrors.


Even at the present day, in this age of science and knowl- edge, the full depredation of the tuberculosis fiend is not fully realized. If the United States tuberculosis mortality prevailed throughout the world, there would be a loss of life amounting to almost 3,600 lives a day.


Yet day after day, month after month, we contemplate the prospect of death from tuberculosis without emotion. The fear and shock of violent and repulsive contagion were absent-


119


In the present state of our knowledge, the drying up of the fountains of infection is, when all is said and done, the ulti- mate, and, in fact, the only practical objective.


Over one-half of our department appropriation is now required for tuberculosis prevention and the care of cases. In addition to this expenditure, the town's share for maintenance of the county hospitals amounted in 193% to $2, 828.77.

FINANCES.


Probably there is no subject recorded by any town board that will interest the citizens more than the finances of all de- partments. Let it suffice to say that we tried in every way to help keep down the cost of public health. At the beginning of the year, we asked for the sum of $15,000 and received $12,000. We would, in all probability, have lived within this sum, except for the fact that we were obliged to pay large sums of money to other cities and towns for persons with a legal settlement in Milford. Realizing this condition we asked and requested such sums of money in the early fall; this was not given, but we did succeed in getting the sum of $2,000, which was not sufficient to carry the costs of patients at the Rutland and Westfield sanatoriums. We were forced to re- quest the release of such patients as were considered suffi - ciently arrested cases, and we returned five children from Westfield and three adults from Rutland.


When it is considered that the vigilance of any health board is being exercised at every hour of every day of the year, the amount of money appropriated for health purposes is amazingly small. Other departments in town government may delay or postpone required services until more favorable circumstances present themselves, but in dealing with matters pertaining to public health, immediate attention is absolutely necessary.


We honestly believe that no thinking citizen would re- fuse to sanction money for a project with such a humanitarian object as health labor, and trust that in the future, financial assistance will be given prompt and courteous attention.

OUR MILK SUPPLY.


During the past year we have made a survey of the milk supplied to the people of Milford. During this survey we had the services of Mr. Arthur J. Hillman, Field Agent for the Department of Agriculture. We used the reductase test for keeping quality and also a sediment test.


In April we tested 64 samples with the following results: Sediment test-Clean and fairly clean, 80 per cent ; dirty and very dirty, 20 per cent. The keeping quality in Class 1 showed 86 per cent ; Class 2, 9.5 per cent ; Class 3, 3 per cent; Class 4, 1.5 per cent.


In June 94 samples tested showed by sediment test: Clean and fairly clean, 80 per cent; dirty and very dirty, 20 per cent. Keeping quality-Class 1, 78.7 per cent .; Class 2, 14.9 per cent ; Class 3, 5.4 per cent ; Class 4, 1 per cent.


In November 70 samples tested for the sediment test showed: Clean and fairly clean, 57.5 per cent ; dirty and very dirty, 42 5 per cent. Keeping quality-Class 1, 93 per cent ; Class 2, 5.5 per cent; Class 3, 1.5 per cent.


The methylene-blue reductase test is a quick method of determining the keeping quality of milk. The test is based on the fact that the more bacteria present in the milk the faster it will decolorize when the methylene-blue is added.


.


122


Class 1 has about 500,000 bacteria or less per c c. Class 2 has about 500,000 to 4,000,000 bacteria per c. c. Class 3 has about 4,000,000 to 20,000,000 bacteria per c. c. Class 4 has over 20,000,000 bacteria per c. c.


At the present time there are fifteen dairy farms in Mil- ford supplying milk to the people of Milford and sixty-five from other towns. At the present time Milford is one of the largest communities in the state that still permits the sale of raw milk from non-tested cattle. In order to overcome this, the Board, on Nov. 4, 1932 made a regulation that all milk must be from tuberculin- tested cows and that all milk sold here shall be bottled and capped.


Provisions for an Inspector of Milk would enable this de- partment to enforce and create a more rigid inspection of dairies and improved cleanliness in handling milk.


CONCLUSION.


In closing the Health Report, we realize that we might. go on and record volumes of certain phases in public health work, but we know that the financial condition of the town demands a smaller report than public health deserves.


As a result, let us state that while all recommendations of a report of this kind may not be adopted on account of var- ious reasons, if any part of them are favorably acted upon, then some good will result by bringing disease down to a min- imum in Milford.


We want to thank all sem official agencies for their kind help during the past year and we ask for the continued confi- dence of the people of Milford, that this town may continue to occupy its proper place among the healthiest municipalities in Massachusetts.


Respectfully submitted,


ARTHUR J. CHAMBERS, JAMES CERVONE, CLIFTON TYLER,


Board of Health.

REPORT OF THE BOARD OF HEALTH PHYSICIAN.


The regular routine examinations of the 814 pupils in St. Mary's and Sacred Heart schools were made with the assistance of the nurse and other follow up visits to these schools were made to check up on possible carriers of con- tagious and infectious diseases.


The Summer Round-up for the purpose of discovering any existing defects which may be corrected before the children enter school, was held July 6, 7, and 8, and one hun- dred and seventy -eight children were vaccinated.


The Toxin-Antitoxin inoculations were given on Novem- ber 28, December 5, 12 and 19 in Dewey Hall, and 332 chil- dren received the three treatments. Parents are more and more coming to realize that this immunization is the only effective means for diphtheria control.


Two cases of typhoid fever were reported in August, one was treated at home and the other hospitalized; convales- cence good in both cases. All contacts were inoculated and no other cases developed.


The Board of Health are making every effort to make this town a more healthful community by its preventive Health measures, and it is most gratifying to note the in- creasing co-operation of the parents and general public.


F. H. LALLY.

The Dental Clinic, operated under your supervision, has been changed in some respects during the past year. Due to a thirty-seven and one-half per cent reduction in the appro- priation formerly made for this purpose, it was necessary to curtail the operating time, and, in consequence, to limit the attendance to the first four grades in the schools.


The new schedule became effective on March 28, 1932, and since that time only one dentist has been in attendance, and the clinic is only operated mornings. In other years it was open morning and afternoon and was available to the children in all the grades.

The record of attendance and operations performed for the year follows: In January, February and March, the Clinic was operating full time and since then on the new schedule.
