County Quarantine
On Dogs for As Doys

Arlington County Board members
yesterday frightened and extended
the countrywide dog quarantine for
IS days after charging that County
Manager Frank c. Hanrahan and
County Health Officer DR.. Ralph G..
Beachley had not kept the board
informed on the progress of rabies
control in the county.
The county manager was in
structed to release rabies figures to
the press so the public might realize
the need for strict regulation.
Teeth were put in the existing
ordinance by board instruction,
proposed by F. Freeland Chew, that
second offenders be brought into
court. Any persons attempting to
hamper the picking up of dogs by
the game warden also will be sum-
moned into court.
DR.. Beachley Called.
DR.. Beachley, who was summoned
by the board during its meeting.
was asked to report at the next
meeting on the feasibility of COM
pulsory inoculation. Mr.. Hanrahan
was instructed to obtain q second
truck to pick up dogs so as to cover
the entire county.
A letter from DR.. Beachley. ask
ing quarantine extension, started
a heated discussion when Mrs. w.
G. Weldon, 1142 North Harrison
street, who appeared to ask COM
pulsory incubation, declared that
although her neighborhood was
overrun by dogs, she had not seen
the dog-cateher's truck for 10 days.
She added that she had not received
any response to calls at the pound.
Norbert Melnick, Health Depart
ment official, told the board that
since February IL, total of Is
licensed and 5 stray dogs had been
found to be rabid. The future course
OF the epidemic, he said, depends on
how many dogs had been bitten by
the rabid animals before their dis
covery..
Officials Criticized.
Edmund D. Campbell, board mem
Der. said he felt the board had mot
been sufficiently informed on the
subject by the county manager or
the health officer"
DR.. Beachley said the epidemic
was increasing, and asked court
action for second offenders.
Figures from the county engi-
neer's Office revealed that At dogs
have been destroyed since the quar-
antine went into effect, 567 have
been picked up and $50 redeemed.
Highway Sidewalk.
The board authorized C. L., Kin
nier, county engineer, to ask the
State for sidewalk construction

cation for a 100 per cent grant to lay
