FOR SANITARY REASONS
WHY GERMANY WILL EXCLUDE
OUR PRESERVED MEATS.
Authoritative Statement That Is In
tended to AIIay Resentment
in the United States.

BERLIN. March SO.-The North German
Gazette this morning contains an authori-
tative expression of the governments po-
sition in relation to the prohibition of
meats prepared with boracic acid. with
special reference to the assertion that the
prohibition is aimed against the United
States. The article begins by calling at
tention to statements in the press that the
view prevails in the United States that the
prohibition is due to economic. rather than
to sanitary, causes, adding that such an
assumption is wholly incorrect. The pa
per asserts that purely sanitary consid-
Grafton dictated the prohibition OF borax
and other chemicals, and that the i'm
perial Health Office, which is composed of
prominent hygienists from all parts of the
empire, is pronouncedly in favor OF the
prohibition. 1t says further that the Paris
hygienical congress of 1900 declared against
the use of all antiseptic substances for
the treatment of fresh food materials.
Borax has come into extensive use in the
German meat industry. says the paper.
and many voices among the masters de-
mand further permission for the use Of
borax. Nevertheless, the government for
Weighty sanitary reasons, has decided 10
prohibit its employment in the prepara-
tion of meats and for commercial pur-
poses generally. This naturally makes il
necessary TO exclude foreign meats pre-
pared with the forbidden chemicals. other
wise foreign meats would be given the
preference over those Of domestic produc-
ton.
