DOC CRULL MAKES HIS TOWN HEALTHY
IN SPITE OF OBJECTIONS AND
INJUNCTIONS
OFFICE-77C-77S @

FORT WAYNE, Ind, Dec. %.
"A health officer that jeopar-
dies his private practice to en-
force health regulations is like a
fly in a custard pie. He has a
good time while it lasts, even If
he does have to pay in the end. :
SO says DR.. Eric A. Crull, head
of the department of health in
Fort Wayne, and he is certainly
having a good time" In three
years he has reduced by over 200
per cent the death rate from en-
tero-colisis, the disease that
wipes out thousands of babies
during the heated months of
every year; has forced the tu-
berculin test for cattle owned by
every milk supplying agency do
ing business in his jurisdiction,
beating two injunction suits to
do it; has had passed and en-
forced ordinances preventing
splitting on public sidewalks and
proving for cuspidors in all
public buildings and workshops
and has effected a decrease of
from 40 to so per cent in the
annual number of scarlet fever,
diphtheria and typhoid fever
cases in the city.
His most recent campaign was
the cleaning up of the city's res
taurants. OF 90 eating places in
spected, excellent" certificates
were issued to but IL, and 5 were
closed without ceremony as be-
ing too dirty to serve food.
