title: METHODS FOR THE DEFENSE OF PUBLIC HEALTH APPROPRIATIONS.
abstract: This paper will be especially helpful to the health officer because it tells him things he needs to know; for example, the place for arguments based on comparisons, on expenditures, on efficiency and on results attained, that will carry weight with intelligent public bodies. Statistics are given their place, as an index of the real value of health work, with a warning against crude statistics.
