The
Bath houses should be open for public health says Dr Cabot
Dr. Richard Cabot argues a hot day justifies keeping baths open for public health. He contends the cost should not be a consideration and urges authorities to throw open bathing places to the public to prioritize health over expense.
Bathing facilities offered at I street bath on hot day
Mr Walsh said anyone could be accommodated at the I street bath on any day and extra towels could be requisitioned by telephone if needed. Dr Cabot noted early season bathing would not harm but could help, while Joseph Lee urged opening baths despite costs. Mayor Fitzgerald said funding and unprecedented May weather hindered immediate opening.
