July 3 (B—The Chicago, through Dr. Arnold Its_health commissioner, took steps | today to prevent further deaths from poison gas escaping from me- chanical refrigerators. At the same time Dr. Kegel a sured householders that there was little danger if they would observe the precaution of keeping the room in which the refrigerator is placed properly ventilated. The department of health, weVh attributes at least 15 recent Chicago deaths to poison gases escaping from mechanical refrigeration sys- | tems, has drafted an ordinance to provide rigid inspection of all fu- ture installations of refrigeration. The chief danger, Dr. Kegel said, is from ice boxes in large apar ment buildings which operate from a central plant.
