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."
