A score card for health officers is a novel suggestion, but nevertheless one in accord with good common sense. Mr. Tobey argues that a responsible business executive is chosen with great care, and a health officer has more responsibility than most business executives. In his scale professional qualities are given the lowest place and personal qualities, the highest.
