rocks continuously crash down

in the daytime, the guides said.

SheIIfish Program Cited
While officials are unwilling to
describe it as a typical example
of conditions generally. the low
estate of Washington's "shellfish
sanitation program" is cited as
one Of the immediate problems
confronting the new regime in
its efforts to raise sanitation
standards generally.
The shellfish sanitation pro-
gram is designed to safeguard
the handling and processing Of
shellfish. Washington's program
has been criticized in the past
by the United States Public
Health Service. which made its
findings available to the Health
Department.
A recent inspection, made at
the request of the Health De-
partment. reviewed uncorrected
conditions Of long standing on
Washington's waterfront. That
inspection gave Washington q
rating Of 25.7 out of 100. The
Public Health Service requires
a score Of 70 before a shellflsh
program receives its indorse-
ment. 1t recommends a mini
mum score Of 90.
