HEALTH INSPECTOR
FOR HARRISON NOT
YET DECIDED upon
Mrs. Margaret Mcclure TO Act
as Clerk Until Official Is
Chosen--Wrangle in Board.

Harrison will have to depend upon
the health Inspectors of East Newark
and Kearny to do the sanitary work
in the town for al least another month.
The Board of Health met las night.
but was unable to choose q successor
to the late Inspector John T. Mcclure.
Mrs. Margaret Mcclure, widow of the
inspector. who has been doing the
clerical work of the Office for the last
few weeks, will continue as clerk until
a temporary inspector is appointed.
Last nights session developed into
a wrangle, the participants In which
were Commissioners James A. Reid and
DIR. Henry Alters. The former ad-
vanced the name of Charles William
son for the inspectorship, while DR..
Alters fought hard to have Mrs. Nc
Clure kept In office for q couple of
months to come.
This position is a very important
one" said DIR. Alters. and we ought to
go slow in the appointing of a man
to fill 1t. Our late inspector sacrificed
his life for this town. When he died
he left no insurance to his widow, hav-
ing had to give up all policies upon his
life when he became inspector
Il think we ought to consider his
widow and do all we can for her. The
woman came to see me and k that
I do all I could to assist her. h
explained that with the help of the
other West Hudson inspectors she
could do the work of the office until we
named a permanent officer. 1 promised
to do al I could for her and am tn
favor of allowing her to act as clerk"
Mr.. Reid spoke at length OF the mat
ter. He said in part:
IT am not opposed to helping Mrs.
Mcclure, but I do object to having to
go outside Of our town to get men to
do Il Inspecting work. How do we
know what day the town of Kearny
and the borough of East Newark will
instruct their inspectors to discontinue
doing the work in Harrison?
we have no right to depend upon
the charity Of others. Our town de-
mands the personal and entire atten-
ton of a man for this work n we
should not be haphazard in our meth
DDS regarding he office"
President Malone told the board that
Mrs. Mcclure had called to see him
and tina they had talked over the mat
ter of allowing her to look aftex the
| clerical duties. Mr.. Malone said he
understood she was to hold office only
until the first of the year and he was
satisfied with that.
Commissioners Pagan, Comey and
Reid thought likewise and only DR..
Alters was of the opinion thatss1s
should hold over longer. Comey sta
that it. was his opinion that no 8
didate could get three votes last mig
and he favored laying the matter oycV

likely to mean something import

That the legislature can do JUS

be to reduce ourselves to the state
OF the Hottentot.
4. The next objection was the
expense OF wrapping, which would
increase the price of bread.
1t cost $1.65 to wrap 1000
loaves of bread. Such a percent
age need not increase the price.
The question is this: Shall the
wholesale baker put this proper
ton of his profits in giving this
community clean, wholesome
bread?
Every butcher, grocer and SELL
er of food wraps his goods before
1t leaves the store; why should
not the baker come up to this
same standard of cleanliness? Els
pecially when bakery stuffs can
not be cleansed in any way before
being eaten.
1t were less dangerous to pub
lie health for meat and vegetables
to be carried about exposed in
baskets, for they can be washed
and can be cooked before being
eaten. But no butcher or grocer
would do such a thing.
This bakery question is only
one item in the ordinance, but
because Of the misleading state
ments and lack of information on
this subject, l have felt it neces-
sary to give this defense.
The office Of market inspector
cost Portland $1,000 a year, and
other cities larger than Tacoma
from $500 to $1,000.
This ordinance is fraught with
a deep meaning and high purpose:
to have the best food conditions
In this city. This is the sole rea-
son for the existence of the Pure
Food council, whose views this
letter expresses.
BY his vote each councilman
will range himself for or against
the betterment of conditions and
determine the status of Tacoma
on this question.
Shall Tacoma be progressive
and set other cities good ex-
ample or shall it be left for some
other city to take the lead in this
national movement.

OLYMPIA, Feb. 27.-With but
eleven working days left the legis-
lature finds itself with monu-
mental pile of bills In its path
that something will have to be
done with. Out of the 500 meas
ures introduced less than thirty
have so far received the govern
or S signature and become laws.
There are as many more that have
passed both houses and are wait
ing for the name of the chief ex-
ecutive, but this small number
does not diminish the formidable
pile of measures yet to be con-
sidered.
And on top of this there is the
local option bill to a considered
next week, and how long this will
be drawn out to the exclusion of
other legislation is a matter of
conjecture. Then, too, there is
the criminal code. This lengthy
document cannot be hurtled
through like the school or military
code. 1t is a serious proposition,
