Supply Not Satisfactory.

DR.. kinyoun said that the general milk
supply Of Washington is far from salts
factory. This is particularly true, he de-
clared, with respect to the milk furnished
restaurants. "Swilr' would be q better
term for much Of the low-grade milk fur
nished restaurants, he asserted.
According to DR.. Kinyoun, pasteuriza-
ton methods Of some Of the milk dairy
establishments OF Washington are far
from satisfactory. In some instances, he
declared, the method Of cleansing the bot
ties Is so crude that 1t actually contrib
utes to the dissemination of disease.
Dr. Kober. with the subject, ''Epidemics
Caused by Raw Milk.' spoke in part as
follows:
1T has been demonstrated by numerous
psychologists that disease germs may
not only survive. but in many instances
actually proliferate, in the milk, and 1t lie
not difficult matter to point out the
many ways by which these germs gain
access, especially when some of the en-
ployes are also engaged in nursing the
sick, or are suffering themselves from
some mild infection while continuing
their duties, or are convalescent from
the disease and have become chronic
bacillus carriers.

Wiley Gets Ovation.

DR.. Wiley was given an ovation. He
urged the pasteurization of milk as a
temporary expedient. until 1t will be pos
sible to get absolutely clean milk.
eve must have clean milk he said,
"even If 1t Is necessary to lead the COWS
through tho streets of the city and milk
them at the doors of customers. Pas
teurizatiOn would be unnecessary then.
Just as long as we are willing to pay for
bad milk we will get bad milk. The con-
sumers must pay the price OF good milk.
IF the people OF Washington and OF
the entire country would give one-tenth
as much time to health conditions as to
schedule X, which affects them neither
one way or the other. humanity would be
benefited much more.''
Health Officer Woodward opened the
symposium with an address in which he
urged additional laws for the regulation
of the sale Of milk and dairy products
In the District. He declared that the
prime need is to establish standards OF
milk. The health officer called attention
to the fact that the present law fails to
define pasteurization and certification.
Greater supervision of places where milk
is sold is needed. he said.
The health department Of the District
was represented at the symposium not
only by DR.. Woodward, but by Dr. Kim

"Of the ninety-nine epidemics OF scar

eight instances either at the dairy

persons connected with the dairy
either lodged in or had visited in

infection was conveyed by means OF in

I'm seventeen instances the Infection
was conveyed by persons connected with
the milk business while suffering or re-
covering from the disease and in at least
ten instances by persons who acted as

instances the milk had been stored In or
