and E streets southwest. In Water
street. around Seventh and o streets
and at the Northeast Market.
Some Of the large producers pro-
vide anywhere from $4,000 to $4,000
chickens a week to Washington mar
kets, food stores and hotels. Most OF
the chickens are brought into the
city by trucks from Southern Mary
Land and Delaware.
At these large killing centers SCI
entific methods Of handling and re-
frigeration are employed. Clement
explained that some Of the dealers
were cooperating 100 per cent with
the Food Inspection Service.
The rooms where the chickens are
kept are separated entirely from the
killing and refrigeration rooms. The
chickens are kept in metal cages with
wire bottoms, under which are metal
drip pans. This Is very important for
sanitary reasons, 1t was pointed out.
After the chickens are received they
are put on a diet of water, which
"hushess out" any poison or foreign
matter. This process eliminates the
possibility Of tainting the meat after
the bird has been killed.
In many Of the small groceries
about which the department COM
plains, Clements said, wooden cages
are used that cannot be kept In 4
sanitary condition.

The process Is expeditions, and the
men are paid on the piece-work basis.
After the blood has been allowed to
drip from the birds, they are dipped
into scalding water and the feathers
quickly removed. They are then
singed and are ready for . series OF
cooling tanks. This practice elimi-
mates sweating OF the fowl and pre-
vents the Hseat from spelling. After
the water bath they go into the
cooler. where they are completely
dried and made ready for delivery.
The better establishments deliver
In refrigerator trucks.
Clements said there is no way OF
estimating how many thousands of
poultry are killed = week in WASH
ington.
The killing rooms in the large CEN
ters are connected with the city sew

the dealers use their own trucks to

possible to eliminate under the con-
ditions. From behind the counter
the killing room was reached by
very short nall. The two visitors
cautiously ys.nked up their trousers
as they walked into the room.
The proprietor of this store has
agreed to build glazed brick killing
place at the rear, which can be
flushed and kept in a condition more
in keeping with sanitary require
ments. He was to submit his plans
to the Food Inspection Service next
Friday.
After several more such visits it was
suggested that the best" places be
taken in.
Segregation Is Aim.
What we are trying to do," Glenn
ents explained, "is to keep the killing
rooms in these small places separated
from the stores. With tin, tile or
glazed brick interior walls 1t is posi-
bic to turn on a hose and wash them
down."
Frequently he has been called in
by residents and other storekeepers
to investigate complaints Of obnox-
ious odors at such places.
Sometimes when the garbage truck
makes its last visit on Friday, the
inspector complained, the filth from
the killing places is left standing in
containers over the week end. Rats
and flies infest such places" he said.

orders to make their slaughter rooms
conform to sanitary requirements.
On Clements shoulders falls the duty
Of keeping an eye on as many Of
these hundreds of small stores as it
is physically possible for one man
to do.
I'm the cases of the worst Offend
ers," he explained, Il have given
them three alternatives. They can
either risk being hauled into court
on common health grounds, they
can improve or build sanitary sheds
or else stop killing on the premises
altogether"

ecientious proprietors have preferred
to cooperate, he said, rather than
face day in court.

Grocery in Northwest.
One of the latter places was
small grocery store in the Northwest
section. There was a small wooden
shed in the back yard used as a
chicken coop. At the back door of
the store in room formerly used as
a toilet was the killing place. A
small container for hot water and
a shelf to let the blood drip into
garbage cans provided the only IA
cilities. Flies swarmed about the
place.
Clements explained that the en-
trails and feathers from the chickens
are collected by the garbage trucks

With Summer approaching, the in

such waste on backyard premises

Is now. And remember" he said,
sometimes the stun stands over the

The inspector said that recently
ne came across q poultry truck that
actually did its killing in the streets.
We put a short end to that" he
added. The rear Of the truck was
used for killing purposes.

FINAL ARGUMENTS.
HAHN CASE.
State and Defense Allotted
Five Hours Each in Poison
Death Trial.
BY the Associated Press.

BY the Associated Press.
CINCINNATI, Nov. 4.-The State
today prepared plea to a jury of II
women and one man to send Anna
Marie Hahn to the electric chair as
the poison slayer of a 78-year-old
gardener, Jacob Wagner.
Judge Charles S. Bell allotted the
State and defense five hours each for
final arguments to the jury. The de-
fense rested yesterday after Mrs.
Hahn left the stand after almost two
Gays of testimony.
The defense offered three witnesses
the Bavarian-born defendant, her
12-year-old son, oscar, and DR.. Will
liam McNally, Chicago toxicologist.
The State brought its ninety-sixth
witness to the stand in rebuttal testi-
mony which closed last night the
record of evidence of the deaths of
four lonely old acquaintances of the
3l-year-old mother.
Prosecutor Dudley NJ Outcalt indi-
Gated he would not require the full
time permitted for final arguments.
Chief Defense Counsel Joseph H.
Hoodin planned to start his final plea
during the day.
Judge Bell permitted the evidence of
the poison deaths of three other men
besides Wagner after he said the State
mad offered prima facie evidence of
the poison death of Wagner. Mrs.
Hahn also is indicted for murder in
the death of George Gsellman, 81.
Tears were visible in Mrs. Hahn's
eyes as Outcalt pressed her sharply
concerning the use of her maiden
name "A. Filser," on a document pur-
porting to grant her power of attorney
for Mrs. Olive Koehler, who died
shortly after Mrs. Hahn was arrested
August 10.
With the jury out, Hoodin protested
the introduction of what he termed
new evidence.
We are having enough difficulties
defending not only one crime, but four.
Now Outcalt is attempting to show
another crime. To allow such testi-
mony is simply inflaming the minds
OF the jurors so that the Smartest law
yer or the most innocent person could
never remove such prejudice from
their minds" he declared.
