Professor Frederick ID. Chester and
Dr. A. Robin, who recently charged
that Wilmington water was bad and
that the wilmington filter was not per
forming it's functions, have renewed
the discussion by printing a number
of statistics to show that the number
of deaths from typhoid fever in VIII
mington was much larger than it
should be, but for some reason the
scientists went back for seven years
from the present time and took the
statistics from 1890 to 1895 The filter
was not in operation until some time
after the year 1890, and the Water
Commission. which has charge of the
filter. claims that more recent figures
should have been taken.
The commission is willing TO make
an investigation of the workings of the
filter and to make any changes deemed
necessary. but does not want to be
condemned on figures taken before the
filter was in operation.
