Excerpt from Public Health Administration in North Carolina This report on Public Health Administration in North Carolina, compiled by Dr. William A. McIntosh and Dr. John F. Kendrick, representatives of the International Health Division of The Rockefeller Foundation, sets forth the results of the most comprehensive study of its kind ever undertaken and successfully accomplished in North Carolina. Through months of painstaking study, which led the authors of this valuable contribution through a veritable labyrinth of research, we have, in this publication, an accurate picture of the organization of and the services rendered by those who are engaged in carrying on our public health activities. The strength of this important document lies not only in the amount of intelligent effort expended in its preparation and its clear presentation of facts, but also in the constructive manner in which the authors have undertaken to make recommendations for a still greater public health structure in North Carolina. When I requested that this survey be made. I wanted to get an accurate, fair and impartial appraisal of just what is being done in our State. This desire has been realized, and I commend this report for study to those who believe in basing their objectives upon a desire for truth. No institution is so perfect that it cannot be improved, perfection can only be approximated by the finite mind, but the more accurately and impartially we appraise human effort, whether exercised by the individual or by society in the aggregate. the more nearly we will be drawn to a realization of the best. I not only commend the fine work of Dr. McIntosh and Dr. Kendrick for the valuable contribution they have made to the annals of North Carolina, but I also thank The Rockefeller Foundation for the services of these two eminent authorities, and for its invaluable support of the cause of public health in general, both in America and throughout the world.
