UPHOLD LIABILITY ACT
Attorney General With Presidents
Approval, to Aid Employees Fight


WASHINGTON, oct 22.-Attorney-
General Moody made a statement an
nouncing, with the Presidents approx
al. that when the first case under the
employers liability act is tried he in
tends to ask leave to intervene in the
case to support the constitutionality'
validity and Interpretation of the law.
The statement follows:
1T has come to my knowledge that it
will be asserted in court that the en-
ployers' liability act. passed by Con-
gress last winter, by which a remedy
is afforded to all employees Of the in
terstate railroads for death or injury
incurred in their service through the
negligence of interstate railroads or
any Of its employees, is beyond the con-
stitutional power OF Congress and
therefore void.
1T is my intention TO ask leave Of
the court, IN which the first case under
this law is tried, to intervene. not upon
the questions Of fact, but for the pur-
pose Of supporting the constitutionality,
validity and Interpretation of this law.
This intervention finds a precedent
in the leave given by the Supreme
Court to this department to intervene
in n private case arising under the
safety appliance law. Under this in
tervention. i'm the case Of Johnson
against the Southern Pacific Company,
the judgments Of the Circuit Court
and Circuit Court of Appeals were re-
versed, and the law plainly interpreted
and made effective by the judgment OF
the Supreme Court.

proval Of the President "

acquainted with the Battle Greek idea of
simple living and has to large extent

PURE FOOD FOR KANSAS.

AduItcrated Goods.

Topeka, Kansas. = Ill the grocery
jobbers of Kansas net DR.. ]. S.
Crumbine, secretary Of the state board
of health, Thursday morning and had
a long conference regarding the new
pure food rules of the board. AS a
result Of the conference the grocery
jobbers agreed to stand by the rules
of the board and not handle any stock
which the chemists of the board had
found to contain preservatives or
adulterants OF any kind unless the
stock was properly labeled.
The conference was one of the most
important relating to pure food that
has been held in the state. The gro
GERS asked Dr. Crumbine to explain
the pure food rules and after this the
jobbers as a body and personally
agreed that as soon as new contracts
could be drawn they would buy no
more goods of manufacturers who
would not agree to stand by every
rule of the board. If preservatives
were necessary in any foodstuff, the
grccers will demand that the marV<
facturers label the goods to show the
kind and quantity of preservatives
and adulterants.
