unless checked, eventually will destroy the raw milk industry practically over night.
 Small Group Active
 '"The pasteurization plants have shown intention to comply with the legal requirements 100 per cent, while have done likewise. A small group of 20 per cent of the dairymen in innate that they are prepared to ex- pend far more on injunction procedure than it would cost to comply with the legal requirements to produce pure milk. In other words, they propose to tie the hands of the department of health as long as possible in such a manner that no inspections may be made, no samples of their product may be analysed, nor an investigation made at their source of supply even in the event of a pos sible typhoid or other communicable disease milk-borne epidemic.
 Claim Legal Right
 Regardless of rumors to the con trary, the department of health feels confident that no attorney in this city would take the responsibility of the possible consequences of rendering such auNlce to d IeW Qalrymen WnO choose to interpret the control of adulterat tion, removal of typhoid carriers, abating unanitary toilers and other sanitary safeguards as comparable with "czar- ism"
 The right of city to regulate and safeguard its milk supply even to the extent of compulsory pasteurization has been sustained by supreme courts in practically all states of the union. All the city of Birmingham is doing al present is to enforce sanitary standards and safeguards universally recognized as essential in public health circles for the control of raw milk in cities where it is allowed to be sold. All that can be gained by injunction procedure is more time for a small group of raw milk peddlers in which to jeOpardize the status of the public health and the future of the raw milk industry, not to speak of the effect on the >headway that has been made in developing the dairy industry and increasing consump- tion of milk during the past three years"
