COMMITTEE ST MEETING

rt i.i believed that there was something: started at th meeting of the Et Chicago Chamber tt Commerce yesterday when city sanitation luncheon was held attended by Ir. Kins'of th state board of health, by City Chemit Osborn and Fresiler.t MrQuaid of the local board end by about seventyfive other representative men nnd -worn-en. Visitors were there from th health boards of Whitinjr and Hammond. Dr. King: cited about twenty places In both ends of the city where, congestion prevailed to ft deplorable extent, and where the sanitary conditions are almost intolerable. He said that he hm- these facts not so much in a spirit of criticism because he knew something ?f the things which the people in this section are up against, but to justify the state board in the attitude that something must be done. J. F. McQuaid of the local board, took up the discussion and by statistics which he read showed that the death late had been hisrh not so much in quarters where there was congestion of adults as in certain tenement and other districts where children lived and where water, seware, etc., were abnormally bad. Mr. McQuaid read extract's from a communication which l e had sent to the state board nnd which showed that he was thoroughly familiar with the situation and that as he saw It about i he only recourse lay in a remedy of housing: conditions, upon pure water and uj on a court that would assist in the enforcement of law. A committee was appointed to co-operate with the local board of health and take up certain suggestions of the board relative to plans for some progress along: this line. The committee appointed consists of Abe Ottenhelmer, J. K. Reppa and John Bochnowski.
