pnation
"The Health Department of the
City of Not-walk today is the same
as it we: when the City was first
consolidated." said Health Officer
Dr. Robert Perdue this morning."
"Conditions in the City certainly
warrant a Sanitary Inspector. This
has been proven during the past
year. by the number of health mat-
ters that have come up. Nomi):
is s. growing City and we should
keep our health standard up to that
of other cities of similar size. I
hope that the Board of Estimate
and Taxation will see this nutter in
the same light as most. cltisens do
and malts the necessary appropria-
tions for such a man at their pros-
cnt eessions.‘
Dr. Pcrdue has asked that the
sum of 82.500 be appropriated in
the Health budget. that is now be-
fore the Board of Estimate and
Taxation for a anitary Irspccwr.
who “ill also act as meat and milk
inspector.
Such an appropriation has been
asked for during the past two years
by Dr. Perdue. but each year it has
been turned down by the Board of
Estimate and Taxation. It is felt
by Dr. Per-due. that condition.» in
the City have reached soon a point
that the "City must have a. Sanitary
Inspector in order that the proper
health standards might be llVed up
to.
According to the plans of Dr.
Pei-due. the Sanitary Inspector
would have charge of the slusghter
houses in the City and would see
that they were up to the standard.
as set forth in the state health
laws. He would work under the
supervision of'the Board 0‘ Health.
Dr. Perdue will appear at the
meeting of the. Board of Estimate
and Taxation on June 16. at Which.

Two small boys. in a spirit of fun.
caused the wreck of the Twilight
Express on the Boston and Albany
railroad here last Tuesday after-

police department detectives today.
The officers, in making their inves-

confessions from Robert Boris. 8
years old. and Michael Fer-leis. e
yam-s old. but]: of when: lived sear-

the rails where it is believed the
the track. The officers received the
first tip from Mary Boris, 9 years

detectives she was with the boys
when. they placed the stones on the
rails. Owing b the tender ego or
the lads. it is unlikely that they will
be arrested.
