                           CHAPTER XVII。 



                            DEPARTMENT OF HEALTH。 



     I   learned   that   the   Department   of   Health   had   greater   responsibilities 

than any other department of the Government�察�for the physical�察�mental and 

moral welfare of the people was in its keeping。 One of its duties was to 

prevent   the    introduction     of  any   diseases   into   Eurasia�察   �and   to  make    it 

effective every person coming into the country had to undergo a physical 

examination   by   three   Government   physicians�察  �and   all   persons   that   were 

idiotic    or  insane   or   had   any   of  the  following     diseases�察   �viz。�此 �syphilis�察�

tuberculosis�察     �cancer�察   �leprosy�察   �yellow    fever�察   �smallpox�察    �or   any   other 

contagious disease or fever�察�or was shown on examination to be addicted 

to   vicious   habits�察  �were   denied   admission。   Another   of   the   duties   of   the 

Department of Health was to examine every person that applied to practice 

medicine   and   surgery   or   to   engage   in   any   professional   calling。  The   law 

required     a  medical     examination      to  be  made     of  the  person�察   �who    was 

granted   a  license   every   year�察  �so   as   to   keep   the   professions   up   to   a   high 

standard。 

     Before     granting     license    to   any   man�察   �three    male    physicians      in 

Government         employ     examined      him�察   �and    if  a   female    three    female 

physicians examined her。 The first examination was physical�察�and if found 

to    be   in  good    physical     health   they    were    passed    up   for   a  mental 

examination�察�and if they qualified for their profession they were examined 

morally�察�when they were asked the following questions�此 �Do you believe 

in the Brotherhood of Man�拭�Will you do unto others always as you would 

desire   that   others   should   do   to   you�拭  �Do   you   promise   that   you   will   not 

render obedience directly or indirectly to any person or persons outside of 

Eurasia and that you will render willing obedience to the laws and do all 

that lies in your power to maintain the honor of the country�拭─�If they did 

not   agree   to   those   rules   of   conduct   they   were   denied   a   license。   If   any 

person     attempted     to  practice   any   profession    without   a   license    he  was 

punished by six months' imprisonment at hard labor。 

     Any  person   practicing   fortune´telling   or   any  other   fraudulent   calling

was   tried   for   obtaining   money   under   false   pretenses�察  �and   on   conviction 

thereof was sentenced to five years' imprisonment at hard labor at the rock 

crusher。 The result of this wise law showed in the total absence of bands of 

gypsies�察�dancing dervishes�察�holy rollers and strolling vagabonds of every 

description in Eurasia。 If a man or woman was found anywhere in Eurasia 

without visible means of support the Department of Health found work for 

them   until    such   time   as  they  could    better  their  condition。    They   were 

required to work eight hours a day if they were able to do manual labor 

and if not able to work they were sent to a Government Sanatorium。 

     The Department of Health had charge of the sewerage system in every 

district�察�city as well as country。 In the cities it supervised the erection of 

every new building�察�and any old buildings that it pronounced unsanitary 

had to be torn down。 It saw also to the removal of all garbage and refuse 

material。 The Department of Health had charge of all births�察�marriages and 

deaths�察�and could order the cremation of any dead body when it believed 

that it would be to the benefit of the health of the community to do so。 The 

Department       of  Health    was   also   required    by  law   to  make     a  physical 

examination of children when they were born and to take care of them if 

the mother was unable to do so and to send all illegitimate children to the 

Government Orphan College。 It superintended the sale of all medicine and 

drugs�察  �having   a   Government   physician   at   every   Government   warehouse 

where they were sold。 It had also charge of all idiots and insane persons as 

well as dangerous criminals。 

     The   Superintendent   and   two Assistant   Superintendents   of   the   lunatic 

asylums ��of which there were only two�察�one for males and one for females�� 

were   required   by   law   to   castrate   male   lunatics   and   emasculate   females 

who had become insane through masturbation or other vicious habits and 

to   chloroform   dangerous   lunatics   who   had   homicidal   tendencies。   Those 

three physicians in committee examined every dangerous lunatic and two 

of them could order the person chloroformed if in their judgment it was 

necessary。 Lady physicians had charge of the female lunatic asylum with 

the same authority as the men。 The two asylums were located in the center 

of a fine tract of farming land in the Southern part of Eurasia�察�consisting of 

ninety´two      thousand    one    hundred    and   sixty   acres   in  a  high   state  of 



                                            48

cultivation      with   flourishing     orchards   and     vineyards�察  �and     at  the   time   I 

visited it had a population of sixty thousand male inmates and thirty´five 

thousand female inmates´besides the officers and guards。 

     The   mildest   and   most   tractable   of   the   inmates   were   in   communities 

organized   in   military   style   in   different   parts   of   the   grounds   and   were 

busily     employed      in   doing    everything      that  was    required     to  make     the 

institution     self´stustaining。      The    physicians     of   the   State   prisons     were 

required by law after one year's imprisonment ��one year after sentence was 

passed was allowed to prove innocence�� to castrate all males convicted of 

rape�察  �incest�察  �or   any  other   infamous   crime   against   nature�察  �and   to   castrate 

every   male   prisoner       who   committed   sodomy   or   other   infamous             crime 

while in prison�察�but only after trial and conviction for the crime before the 

District     Court�察   �and    they    could    by   a   majority
