Poi SHOPS
Have Not Complied
With Health
Rule.

Some half dozen poi factories are like
days are over. Next week City SAM
tary Officer Tracy and Food Commits
I.sioner Shorey will make tour of the
poi shops in Manoa and Kalihi valleys
and deliver the ultimatum Of the Board
of Health which was adopted last week.
This is to the effect that poi factories
which obtain their water supply from
any other place than the .citys mains
would have to get a certificate from
the Food Commissioner to the effect
that the water being used was good
and wholesome ard pure
So far not a solitary poi manufactur-
er has seen fit to comply with the res
olution of the Board of Health, and Dr.
Shorey has not as yet received any
applications for an examination of the
water being. used for the manufacture
of poi.
The Board of Health at it's recent
meeting adopted a resolution severely
condemning the insanitary conditions
surrounding the valley poi factories.
The poi shops in Honolulu proper are
said to be in comparatively good con-
dition, at least as far as the water
being used is concerned and they will
hardly be disturbed, for the present at
least. However. all of the poi shops
will be treated alike and if any are
thought to be a menace to health they
will be required to stop business until
they comply with the health regula-
lions. The poi shops in the city all
draw their water from the city mains
but in the valleys the water is OBJ
tanned from dirty streams, which are
used for multitude of uncleanly pur-
poses. There are two poi factories at
Moiliili but these also are said to have
a good source of water supply, drawing
all the water required from large wells,
which have been tested and found to be
pure.
