Book excerpt: Excerpt from Report of Committee on Social Betterment, 1908 The Committee on Social Betterment has realized throughout its work that the question of health is intimately connected with the physical, social and moral welfare of all persons whose only income is the product of their daily labor. Health is the chief asset of the working man, and no greater calamity can befall him than when his earning capacity is impaired, or arrested, by reason of sickness or disability. It means in many instances the utter financial ruin of the family and is doubtless one of the most potent causes of poverty and distress.
