...proper conditions is equally safe. The trouble originates right in the hospitals. Most of them have carafes with narrow necks, so they cannot be properly cleaned without a brush-and not a single bottle brush was found. Most carafes are made of materials that will not stand sterilization by heat, and no hospital specified disinfection as part of the cleaning routine. In one-third of the hospitals the carafes were "cleaned" in the utility room -along with basins, bedpans and urinals. In many cases, ice was prepared without adequate safeguards, then juggled into the carafes by employees' unwashed fingers...
...investigators' recommendations for eliminating these bedside cesspools are formidable: put ice-cube makers in microbe-free areas, bag the ice mechanically and store it at 20° F.; dispense ice with tongs; use wide-mouthed carafes, of types that can be sterilized with heat, and have skilled help do this job daily in the diet kitchen. The researchers note wryly that hospital personnel spend hours figuring out just what quantity of fluids a patient gets-so why" not pay a little attention to the quality...

...workers at the main Dodge plant, the stoppage soon idled 41,440 workers as parts shortages halted production in the major Chrysler plants. The relief period of five minutes an hour (in addition to regular relief periods) was first arranged because of special fatigue problems, such as extraordinary heat, though the company claimed that technological improvements later eliminated the problems. So that no actual output would be lost, the United Auto Workers agreed to speed up the line. But in its belt tightening this year, Chrysler went in heavily for time studies, decided that the five-minute relief period each...
