New MethOdTO
Make The City
Healthier

With the Inauguration today of a
new system of city sanitation inspec-
ton. Bridgeport's Health department
has made another progressive move
toward making the city the cleanesr,
brightest and best city in the United
States to live in. The plan, perfected
by Chief Health Inspector c. Howard
Dunbar, divides the city into six dis
tricts, each of the six inspectors haV-
ing a certain district to work in and
having full responsibility for the con-
dition of his district. Each man will
be stationed in his own district and
will not have anything to do with
his fellow inspectors district. All
complaints relative to another dis
trict will be turned into the chiefs
office This office in turn will notify
the inspector.
Each day a report of the work
completed for the day will be sub
mitted to the chief Inspectors office
l'and a check will commence. The new
means that practically all the files
of the Office will have to be changed
over. Each Of the six inspectors has
a map of his respective district and
the head office has a large wall map
telling the exact location of every
man.
The old inspection system consisted
Of having each man do a certain
work. that is one man would take
care of tenement inspection, another
would take care of complaints, and
other would have charge of restaur-
ant inspection and SO forth This di-
vided the work unevenly and not as
good results were accomplished as
will be with the new method. Another
feature is that each man will be thor
ougfly experienced in all branches of
health inspection work.
The following table shows the dis
tricts and the name of the inspector

Big Increase In
COllecHOnOf
Ashes Here

In a report of the Division of Waste
Connection of the Health Department
some Interesting figures on ash col
iections made in the city for the past
two years are shown. For the year
1922 an increase of 1858 loads was
noted over the year 192Q-21. During
1921, 2,42O loads of ashes were col
lected by the city. while for the year
1922, 1872 loads were collected. This

ton is close to 80 cents. A decrease
Of SO per cent. in the cost of collec-
ton was noted for the past fiscal year.

was $3.50
