campaign in regard to food hygiene, both during the visits paid to
food premises by Sanitary Inspectors, and by talks and film shows

The coming into force of the anticipated Food and Drugs Act
in its amended form should enable us to pursue the matter of clean
food with even greater vigour. At the present juncture, the general
standards of clean food could not be described as satisfactory, even
in Southgate. I am not suggesting that our standards are not at

national rather than local, and is one which demands the attention
of all right-thinking citizens. We must aim at making Southgate a
Borough as famed for its food hygiene standards as for its many
other excellencies. This will require time and energy, which could
scarcely be expended in a better cause.
