supply of pure milk to supplement other food.
Tt would appear, in the interests lof public welfare, and also of those! Jsourees of' supply whose milk is able to pas¢ public health tests, that the Jdairies issuing the below-standard samples should be listed in the Health Department's report. believe this to be especially true now, because of the rapid approach of warm weather Jand the fact that filthy refugee camps Jare springing up like mushrooms all through the area accommodating, most of Shanghai's dairies.
If some legal technicality restrains the Department from publishing the Jnames of offending dairies, certainly there can be no such stumbling-block In the way of publishing weekly in the Municipal Gazette the names of Jdairies passing the bacteriological tests, preferably adding the rating.
particularly recommend the above procedure, asin several instances during the past I have found the Public Health Department extremely reticent on the subject of local pro-Jduce. They may have good reasons for this attitude, but T believe they Jean find a satisfactory solution to thix doticate but serious problem.
