This author suggests separate departments of public service, safety and welfare. Fire, police and health would be divisions of public safety. Public welfare should include social welfare, public schools, public library and recreation. Social welfare should dispense all relief funds, and teach mental orderliness in homes with highest grade of trained nurses for teachers.
