FRAN NKFORD AND TACONY
ASK SEWER IMPROVEMENTS
Doctor Dixon Tells Delegation He
Has Advocated Changes.

Representatives of the residents and
business organizations of Frankford and
Tacony visited Dr. Samuel Dixon state
commissioner Of health and charities, at
his office in the Academy of Natural
Sciences. today, and requested him to in
tercede in clearing the Fraukford and
Tacony Creeks, now used as sewers, Of
the mass of disease breeding material ac-
cumulated in and along these creeks.
They asked that a modern sewerage sys-
tenn be constructed in the district. Doc
tor Dixon replied that his department has
on previous occasions. called the atten-
ton of the city authorities to the lack
of sewage facilities not only in Frank
ford. but in other sections as well,
THE residents Of Frankford and their
representatives evidently are surprised to
discover" said Doctor Dixon, that this
department has tried at various times to
secure the cooperation of the city Of
Philadelphia In remodeling and the re-
building of sewers in various parts of tho
city. Chief Webster, q very honest and
enterprsng city official, Is doing his best
along this line but the city has failed 20
make the necessary appropriation for the
purpose. OF course, it is possible TO cN-
plain why municipal galleries should not
be made to wait until sewers are reached.
hut still We hope that when We call the
attention of the citv authorities to the
sewerage needs Of Philadelphia they will
cooperate with us in the matter"
