FINDS DISEASE PERIL IN SWIMMING PODLS
Health Board Warns Bathers of Polluted Water.
VVashington.-A swimming pool, aay; Ihe Cnited .s;tates imlilic health sei\ ice, may beionie pollnied and trans mil disease.
Ninety-one l;ir,i:e municipalities in Me rnited .Slates have eslalilished pnli swinimiiig imioN in nieel the desin for knowledge of swimming. The puli Ilc lleallh servi(-e pnlilishes an arlicle by Dr. Wallace .V. .Vlanheinier of Co liimbia university on the results oli- laiii(>d from an exaiiiination of six [lools.
It is pointed out Ihal in swimming iu polluted water tyiihoid fever, con juiictivitls and olher diseases may contracted. Tlie report gives in delaii the results of the bacterial analyses made of the various pools and also of the efl'ects of refiltration and chemlca! disinfection.
When the water Is untiltered it is aid to lie cloudy, thereby uiaUlng the danger of accidental drowning verv great. When reliltration is practicf-d the water becouies clear and this diiii ger is obviated.
The report concludes that the cubic capacity of a pool affects its sanitary condition, that the process of addlii;; dilution water is an efllclent means of reducing the number of bacteria ami that supervision of the heallh of nl teiidants Is an important factor.
Yhe combination of reliltration and disinfection by the use of calcium hypo-chlorite renders the sanitary con ditions of the water excellent, says Dr. Manhelmer.
