Shore Resorts RUBBISH ACCEMULATES State - Department of Health Engineers May Make Inspection Sanitary conditions at vari- ous beaches along the South 'Shore are likely to be investi- gated by the State Depart- ment of Health as the result of complaints which have been made in recent \weeks. Cases of illness which have come under the care of at least one South Shore physi- cian were ascribed directly to alleged unsanitary conditions at a well known beach. Dr. Richard Slee, district. state health officer, stated today that ho belteved the benches should be In- pected as he had observed filth at ené popular beach. He said he would try to bave two sanitary engineers working on Long Island make an im- mediate visit to several beaches in this vicinity.

WILLIAMS The receipt of a report from the State Prison Com- mission on an inspection of the Town Hall lock-up was the occasion of some comment at the meeting of the Town Board at Hempstead Tuesday, The report criticised rather severely the conditions in the lock-up and copies of the re- port had been sent to the newspapers prior to their re- ceipt by the Board. According to the report made by the inspector, the lock-up is damp and the walls of the building are in danger of coming down. Comment was made on the alleged un- fortunate location of the lock= up in the basement, despite the fact that the State Prison Commission - approved the plans when the building was built. Though only six females have beew locked up in the place in the first halt of 1925, the inspector would have the women's ccll room placed in another part of the building with a separate entrance. . At preseut there are separate rooms with a room bétween them and that room Is separated from the men's cell room by a heavy fron door, Cells Dry and Clean When the report was received, two local newspaper men went to the cell room in company with Town Clerk Gilbert to look over the. situation. The walls and floor were found to be perfectly dry-and there was senting ly no more dampness than. in the ordinary nesidence during the humid spells of the summer. Although the inspector had complained about the alldged lack of cleanliness, every- thing looked spic and span and there was no dirt visible The cells are of the regulation kind with lavatory and toilet in each cell and fron partition separating cells.
