BOYCOTT BABY LEADS TO MILK PROBE City Board Orders Investiga tion of Refusal of Dairymen to Sell to Informer. HEALTH LABORATORY PLAN OF COMMERCE CHAMBER Station to Prepare Pure Food For Infants Projected to Help Fight Typhoid. Because Gus Castle couldn’t buy fresh milk for his baby daughter after deal ers in his section had practically boy cotted him, the city’ board of health has ordered Dr. Kennedy, city physician, to investigate the matter, and the Cham ber of Commerce is planning the estab lishment of a central milk laboratory for supplying really pure milk <o all Atlanta. Tiie men behind the move ment believe it wilt mean better milk for the babies when next spring brings the annua! danger of typhoid and in fant diseases. Mr. Castle, who lives at 9!l West Peavlitree street, was boycotted, he be lieves, because when his baby contract ed ptomaine poisoning from impure mill; he had the dealer arrested and fined. The story’ of how other dealers refused to sell him milk was published yesterday in The Georgian, and it aroused a storm of indignation among city officials’ and citizens generally.

That board met yesterday afternoon and in structed Dr. Kennedy to ascertain from the city attorney Just what powers the city has to prevent such a boycott. It is believed that the custom of granting annual permits to milk dealers may be ■ sed as a "club" and that dealers re fusing to sell milk to any customer un less for some good reason, may’ be de nied permits in future. “Certainly some way must be found to prevent milk dealers from entering into a combination to intimidate custo mers and keep them from reporting violations of law," said Chairman G.
