Restaurant Cleanup
Drive Is Extended
To District Hospitals
Health Unit Checking
Cooking Equipment,
Sewer Connections

The Health Department has
extended its restaurant cleanli-
ness drive to the kitchens of
Washington hospitals, the Health
Department announced today.
DR.. Daniel M. Seckinger, acting
health officer, said the survey would
be completed sometime next week.
For the first time, he said, the
Health Department is checking the
'cross connections" of hospitals to
make sure no polluted water has a
chance to back up" from sewers
into hospital pipes. This type Of
survey has been done by the de-
partment in laundries, Dr. Seckinger
said. Never before. however, he
said. has his department had
enough personnel to assign a trained
engineer to check hospital connec-
tons thoroughly.
At the same time, he continued,
Health Department inspectors are
taking cultures from drinking uten-
sils and equipment used in the hos
pital kitchens. They also are check
ing the preparation and serving of
food. DR.. Seckinger added that the
inspectors are watching particularly
for any i'll effects Of ice shortage on
the hospitals cold storage facilities.
"A number OF people in the de-
partment are working from different
angles toward the same goal, a
thorough checkup of sanitation in
the hospitals" he said.
The department plans to release a
full report of its findings sometime
next wek. DR.. Seckinger said. No
hospitals will be identified by name,
however.

In the end there is no concern 50
deep In them as the concern for the
young ones, the brave ones, the
ones who take their chances proudly
and fearlessly on the battle fronts.
But the people of my district and
my State demand. and their morale
demands, that their Government
give both them on the home front
and their boys on the battle front
every support needed to hasten the
homecoming from. the wars and to
make their own sacrifices no more
onerous than they must be. And
many of them think the Govern
'ment is not doing the best job 1t
can by long shot and is also taking
advantage of their patriotism.
They pay taxes and buy War
bonds up to the very limit Of their
ability, and then they witness or
read about the incredible wasteful-
ness in Washington - the over
stated Government bureaus, the
tremendous expenditures for agen-

even remotely, to be contributing

name of victory itself prodigal
government is playing them for
