A series of tests, conducted by the

10 Parts as Limit.
According to Health Oficer William
G. Fowler, the best medical opinion is
to the effect that the limit of safety in
theaters, auditoriums, and other places
where large numbers of persons con-
gregate Is 10 parts of carbon dioxide in
10000.
In report dated February Is. DR..
Fowler recommended to the Public
Utilities Commission standard of Is
parts in 10000 parts of air. There Is
apparently no me, cal standard set up

MS opinion from personal observation.
He said it should be somewhat more
liberal than the standard in theaters
and the like because of the relatively
short time persons stay in the buses.
Numerous chemical tests made nv

to November, 1880, show contents in
