"After examining a large number of health ordinances of Ore gon cities, I have teen impressed with the insufficiency of these to deal with health conditions. Most of them deal In an incomplete manner with com municable diseases and nuisances, but none of them covers the whole field of activities of a modern health de partment For this reason it seems that the first and most urgent need of Oregon cities Is a complete sanitary code."

A sanitary code which is suitable for towns and cities outside of Port land has been prepared by the munici pal research bureau of the state uni versity. A great number of recent or dinances from American towns were used as references, and the provisions of the Oregon health laws and regula tions of the state board of health were Incorporated wherever found applica ble. This code may be had free on appli cation to the extension division of the university.
