ment of free dispensary for the cure
of white plague patients, are some of
the items mentioned in the annual re-
port of the city health officer, DIR. J. J.
Benton, issued today.
DR.. Benton declared that the need
of certified milk in Berkeley was i'm
peratve and that many cases of dis
ease reported to him had their origin
in impure milk.
He laid great stress on this point
and said that all municipalities should
pass laws so that infants and invalids
who needed milk for their sustenance
would be protected. Such a supply
which compelled dealers to give pure
milk, DR. Benton said.
That the Berkeley stork had been
loafing on the job was shown by the
fact that during the year the number
of births was 262, while the deaths
were All. DR.. Benton made no COM
ment on that phase of his report.
He pointed out that the white plague
had caused more deaths than all other
infectious diseases combined and that
immediate action should be taken
against it. He urged the city to build
and operate a dispensary for the treat
ment of flagrant cases.
