Baltimore Meat Inspection Deemed Farce by Officials
The Baltimore meat inspection system is criticized as inadequate by State Board of Health officials and Union Stock Yards President Alvin N. Bastable. Only three inspectors cover a city with 199 packing houses, leaving many smaller slaughtering sites unchecked. Observations describe ambulance wagons at slaughterhouses and carts used to transport sick or dying animals, with some dairymen disposing of sick cows locally.
