ROOSEVELT TO ACT UPON
REVISED HEALTH CODE
Special to the EVENING VIEWS.

Special TO the EVENING NEWA.
Roosevelt, May 8.-The various I'm
portant sections of the revised health
code of the borough are scheduled to
be taken up for mature consideration at
an adjourned meeting OF the borough
Board of Health to be held here
Thursday night. The subject was dis
cussed at length at the regular meet
ing on Friday night, but owing to the
bulk of the work 1t was not complet-
ed at that time.
Local health authorities In making
for cleaner and more healthy COM
munity have made the local code moro
strict than the state laws in q number
of respects. The law provides that the
more strict regulations, whether they
be local or state. shall supercede the
other. AS an instance, the state laws
provide that wells must at least be one
hundred feet from q cesspool or the
like. The local regulations make the
minimum distance 200 feet, thereby
practically eliminating wells within the
borough.
The local health authorities have
taken pains to eliminate practically all
cesspools and to cause connection with
sewer lines. They are working for
sewage lines in the few streets that do
not already contain service.
