On Tremenheere's draft 1844 report:
I think you give undue promonence to church exension. The remedies first in order are: infant schools: juvenile schools for the young: police force: better organised fiscals: restraints on the sale of fermented liquors, remedies against strikes [...] and lastly better religious teachers, after the prevention of immorality by prevention of overcrowding.
You should I think have traced out and presented prominently the moral and physical evils of overcrowding adults of both sexes into the same sleeping rooms. Of what use will be your appointment of clergymen to preach on morality, the restraint of the passions, decency, propriety, self-respect whilst you herd all like pigs in nakedness together under circumstances to annihilate these virtues? You appoint a preacher to enforce the precept 'honour thy father and thy mother', whilst you allow the young to be placed under circumstances in which the dishonour of both is inevitable. The double crowding of old cottage tenements in the neighbourhoods of new works presents everywhere an abundant crop of crimes of passsion.
Chadwick to Tremenheere, 4 Sept 1844, Chadwick Paper 2181/4 (cited in Donajgroski 1977, 64-65).

Prevention was also employers' responsibility to their workingforce:
[The employer] will find that whilst an unhealthy and vicious population is an expensive as well as a dangerous one, all improvements in the condition of the population have their compensation. In one instance, of a large outlay on improved tenements, and in provision for the moral improvement of the rising generation of workpeople, by an expensive provision for schools, the proprietor acknouledged to me that although he made the improvements from motives of a desire to improve the condition of his workpeople, or what might be termed the satidfaction derived from the improvements as a'hobby', he was surprised by a pecuniary gain.
Sanitary Preport 300-301.

Prevention was the other side of Paternalism:
If I were setting to work as a Capitalist to improve the condition os the workpeople, I would insist upon payments in kind, on the truck much more extensively. I would supply them not only with food, but with clothes and with houses and would beat every other improver. Depend upon it, that it is to the interest of the labouring classes that the profits of retail distribution should go to those who provide them with capital and labour.
Chadwick to Tremenheere, 4 Sept 1844, Chadwick Paper 2181/4 (cited in Donajgroski 1977, 65-66).
