HEALTH AND WELFARE
/. COMMISSION PLANS A
BITTER WAR ON HOUSE FLY
Establish Sanitary Regulations For
Tourists Camps And Gasoline
Filling Stations.

A bitter war on the common
hOusehy and other details that com
bine to make a tourists camp I'M
healthy and a menace will be wageC

State Health and Welfare Commits
sion succeed as hoped for. At the

OF touring camps and gasoline fill
ing stations were discussed and fin
ally approved This will place the
conduct of these camps and filling
stations as far as sanitary condi-
tons go under the jurisdiction of
the state health authorities.
One of the most important regu-
latiOns deal with the common drink
ing cup which is preemptorily ban
ned.
Another regulation deals with the
disposal of sewerage and calls for
receptacles and methods that have
been found to be an impossible bar
rier to the fly. This also applies to
garbage.
concerning water supply the re-
| gulatiOns set forth the following
provisions:
Every person, organization or
municipality establishing or having
control of a tourist camp or filling
station which provides facilities for
the public shall be provided with an
adequate water supply, toilet faci-
lities and refuse disposal.
Each tourist camp or filling sta
ton shall be provided with an ade-
quate supply of water of good sani-
tary quality from a source which
will meet the requirements of the
Delaware State Board of Health as
to sanitary location, construction,
and operation. Water supply NAV |
be used from a municipal system |
provided such a system has been in
stalled and is operated in such a |
as to meet with the REQUIRE |
ments of this Board If a supply |
from an approved municipal source |
is not available, a supply shall be
obtained from a we'll or spring or
other source which must be located
construed, and operated in accord
ance with the requirements of this
Board for a safe water supply"
Each tourist camp or filling sta
ton will be under state inspection
for sanitary completeness the rules
governing the inspections being as
follows:
inspection of tourist camps shall
be made by agents of the State
Board of Health as often as practi-
cable and report of the findings
With recommendations made to
hose in charge. If the recommen-
iations are not carried out and the
amp is found in an unsanitary
condition upon a second inspection,
he camp or filling station will be
declared nuisance to public health
nd IN the one case the camp shall
re ordered closed and not reopen
ID until such a time until recon-
nendations have been carried out
nd in the case of garages and fill
ng stations the sanitary facilities
to the public shall be
lOsed until the necessary changes
ave been made to render it SAM
