Number Over 5000.

There are over 5000 laundries and
washwomen employed in the business of
keeping the clothing and bed and table
linen of Washingtonians clean. according
to the records of the health Office.
Since the regulation requiring the regis
traton of all persons who do laundry
work for others went into effect health
Office officials have been busy receiving
the reports of washwomen and Iaundries.
The number is now SO large that new
system of keeping the records has been
adopted and they are being indexed and
arranged that any particular one can
be easily found.
Health Office officials say that it is i'm
possible to determine at this time how
generally this regulation calling for
the registration of washWomen is bni1g
obeyed. In some cases. it is declared the
washwomen move faster than tne neei,h
office inspectors, and it is hard to find
them located in one place long enough to
get the place registered.
