 THE REASON FOR IT-In making l effective the restrictions imposed tc
 prevent an epidemic of infantile par i! aiysis in this city. the board of health
 naturally encounters some criticism
 but reports that for the most part the
 1 people seem willing to uphold it's re- ! quirements, realizing that little sell
 l denial now is better than a condition
 l later that might also amount to busi-
 ness paralysis. Not q single case oi
 the disease is known to exist here now
 and the officials do not propose l. ,l have a single case if they can hep II The health officers say their beS | guards are the people themselves an' q the health officer is informed almOs daily of returning tourists through tb' medium of neighbors who desire to bt informed if the home corners have re ported and been properly inspected. II this connection there have been few complaints by people living on th' south side who come to Phoenix or the morning train each day to thei employment in this city. They sa! the sanitary guards go through tn Pullman cars first instead of the da! coaches which carry but few comlns from. California and which are locked until after the PuIlmans are inspected delaying them fifteen or twenty min utes They believe the practice shoul' be reversed. It means loss of vaiuabl time to working people and the Pull man passengers who are most suspect ed are most entitled to wait. Tn Fl answer is that the Pullman cars can ! not be locked so that people lnsld $I cannot get out, though they can b locked against the entering of outsid CTS The PuIlmans therefore have t { be inspected first or their passenger niobt pat away Otherwise the Drac , tice would be reversed
