'THE MORNING OREGONIAN, FRIDAY, JULY 2, 1920 13 CHANGE IN SANITARY CODE IS PROTESTED Portland Objects to Market Men Exposing Fruit. COUNCIL HEEDS VENDORS Club Women and Health Officials s to Appear on July to Block Continuance of Ordinance. Portland residents are joining of ficials of the state and city health bureau in vigorous protest against tho recent modification of the sani tary code by the city council to per mit vendors on the public maj-ket to exhibit fruit without using screens. Stall users in the public market ap peared before the city council in large numbers just prior to the Shrine convention and succeeded in having the ordinance revised until July 6, when they promised to return for further consideration. However, when the ordinance goes back before the city council on July , health officials and clubwomen who fought for two solid years to secure the protection to the public health, afforded through the use of screens and electric fans, will be on hand to oppose any continuation ot the modification. Ma nn Futon Enforcement. City Commissioner Mann, in charge f the health bureau, announced yes terday that unless eome plan better than is already embodied in the sani tary code is presented by Commis sioners Bigelow and Pier, who led in the successful effort to remove the screens, is presented, he will instruct his department officials to proceed to enforce the ordinance. "The ordinance Itself was not .mended, but the council issued a f-ulinfr which permitted the discard ing of the screens during the con vention. It was said that the sale of straw-berries on the market was so rapid during this period that it was impractical to use screens. How ever, unless some plan to keep flies and insects away from the fruit is presented, the ordinance will be en forced following July 6." State Health Officer Roberfc has Intimated that should the council re fuse to protect public health by in sisting upon the screening of all food stuffs displayed in the open, he might use the powers granted to him as state health officer and force the use of screens. Barbnr Opposed i. Screens. City Commissioner Barbur believes that the screen ordinance is imprac tical and should not be enforced. He said yesterday that he would will ingly support any measure to protect public health if such a plan was practical, but that it would be im possible for the produce men on the market to vend their goods with screens over them. "Personally. I cannot see any dif ference between the city fly and the country fly," said Commissioner Bar bur. "We don't force the people in the residential districts to screen their fruit trees and flies are as nu merous there as they are in the city, as a general rule." City Health Officer Parrish, who led the fight for the screen ordinance during the past two years and Gordon Land, chief sanitary inspector, prom ise to appear before the council on July 6 and oppose any effort to con tinue the modifications now In effect. Acting Mayor Bigelow said yester day that he had made no study of the proposition and that he did not know if he would vote -to continue th mnH Ideation or force the markctmen to Use the screens. ' Bljrf low Investigating: Plan. "Everybody washes strawberries before they eat them and I can see ro harm in permitting the marketmen to display such berries without screens. However I have been told of a plan which is in vogue in some parts of the market where foodstuffs are covered in such a manner as not to interfere with the sale of the roods. 1 am Investigating this plan and it is possible that I will recom mend the adoption of the plan throughout the market if it eeemi feasible to do so." City Attorney I.a Roche, who was recently In the east, considers the screening ordinance an asset not only to Portland but to the fruit dealers themselves. "In the cast you see wonderful specimens of fruit, but such fruit is JiQt inviting. City officials should not modify any ordinance which protects public health and produce dealers and merchants should be glad to abide with any such ordinance, for not only does It protect the health of our peo ple, but It increases the demand for uch goods."
