All other States— ciews With The Star you Paysable in Advance THE EVENING NEW RULE OFFERED FOR STORE FOODS Fowler Submlts Measure for| Better Protection of Dis- played Staples. The District Commissioners today began consideration of a new regula- tion proposed by Ilealth Officer Wil- liam C. Fowler to protect foodstuffs on display from dust and insects. The new regulation is designed to replace one now in force, which has been ob- jected to by meat dealers and the Merchants and Manufacturers’ Asso- ciation. The meat dealers had objected par- ticularly to being compelled to display meat for sale in refrigerated glass cases. JIn the rewritten regulation the refrigeration feature hag been omitted. The proposed new rule follows: “No person shall expose for sale or display on any highway or in any market, store, shop, stand, stall or in any other place in the District of Columbia any meat, fish, plucked poultry or game or bird, dressed rab- bit or squirrel, butter, butterine or oleomargarine, lard, lard compound or substitute, cheese, confectionery, or baked products, dates, figs or any other food whatsoever of a kind not commonly washed, peeled, shelled or cooked before eaten, unless the same be then and there effectually wrapped or covered, or inclosed in glass, fine- mesh wire screen, or other suitable covering so as to protect it from dust, dirt, flies, insects and promiscuous handling by prospective purchasers; nor shall any person transport over any public highway in the District for sale or to be delivered to a purchaser or consumer, any article aforesail un less the same be effectually and in a cleanly manner wrapped or covered s0 as to protect it from dust, files and other contamination. “Live poultry shall not be kept in any room in which any of the afore- said articles are prepared, stored or exposed for sale or displayed.” Dr. Fowler made a study of simi- lar health regulations in 17 other cities before drafting the new rule. “Our survey showed clearly,” he said, “that the health authorities throughout the country appreciate the importance of and the need for proper protection of foods sold for human consumption. In several cities the regulations provide for the use of electric fans for the purpose. The Health Department of the District, however, has found the use of these fans, for the purpose indicated, very unsatisfactory, and only within the last few davs have some of fts in- spectors observed meat displaved in the Center Market with flies on it while such fans were in active opera- tion. “But {f the fans would keep away flies and insects, they will not pre vent prospective purchasers from han- dling meats and other foods, and even | if such handling did not tend to spread infection, it is, to say the least, a dirty practice and the reople should not be forced to eat food that has been handled promiscuously. “This practice, T regret to say, still prevails to some extent in the Dis- trict, and it should not longer be tol- erated, notwithstanding that a few other cities seem to be satisfied with such methods.” OFFICIALS DISCUSS - SPEED LIMIT RAISE List of Highways Where 30 Miles an Hour Will Be Legal Ready Tuesday. Plans of the Traffic Bureau to raise the speed limit on boulevard highways in outlying sections of the District from to 30 miles an, hour were discussed informally today in a_con- ference between Commissioner Proc- tor L. Dougherty and Col. I. C. Mol ler, acting director of traffic. A list of the highways on which it is proposed to increase the speed limit has been prepared by Col. Mol- ler, who expects to submit it to the Commissioners for consideration at lhu semi-weekly board meeting Tues- day. The new speod limit will not become effective, however, until the new boulevard stop signs, now being manufactured, are erected at inter- secting streets along the highways. These signs are scheduled to arrive Tuesday and installation will begin at once. Although Col. Moller declined to re- veal the boulevards on which it is pro- posed to raise the speed limit, it is known that certain portions of Massa- chusetts and Wisconsin avenues are included in the list, as well as Bla- densburg road for the entire distance from Fifteenth and 1 streets north- east to the District line. The limit now is 30 miles an hour on some sections of this road north of Mount Olivet Cemetery. 0ld Employes Recognized.
