Matter of Milk Inspector May be Settled Soon—Old Norwich E Handbill Owned by Mrs. Louisa H. Jordan—State Prohi- " bitionists Place Judge Thomas H. Peabody on Ticket. SRt Y ¢ Westerly, through action »f the town council -taken a couple of years ago, gave the required potice to the secre- tary of state 4nd thereby accepted the state law in regard to the inspection of milk. Instead of carrying the pro- visions of the law into effect, the coun- cil merely appointed a milk inspector, but without the wherewithal to make the law operative in the town. Th inspector visits the milk dealers]th ‘monthly and reports the names of deal- ers visited to the council with the ad- ditional information that he “found the “milk to be satisfactory,” and Lhat is all The term for which the inspector was appointed expired several months ago, but he continues in office and draws the salary until his successor is chosen and has duly qualified. For the past three months this mat ter has bedn held up for the reason that the council could not agree upon a new milk inspector and with all that pertains to the office. There is talk among the councilmen of rescinding the vote of accentance of the state laws ir regard to milk inspection-on account of the expense and be contert with the present lax methods and also to dis- pense with the payment of a salary for milk inspection. It is probable that definite action . will be taken at the next session of the town council. The state law provides that all milk shall be sold from containers officially sealed by the sealer of weights and measures, that dealers shall be. - censed, that the milk inspector shall have an office and keep a record of all licenses, the milk inspector must give notice of his appointment by news paper advertisement and also give newspaper publication of ¢he laws of S | nesses to the fight and arrests.
