Suva’S Cafes Are Up

From Our Own Correspondent SUVA. July 19.

ALLEGATIONS that Suva cafes were insanitary and a menace to health have been found to be without foundation. Dr. J. Taylor, Medical Officer for the area, recently made a special sur vey of the cafes and made the above report to the Suva Town Board.

The Suva cafe trade is in the hands of Indians and Chinese. Their premises are inspected twice a month and casual inspections are also made frequently.

The allegations had been made by an Indian newspaper.
