says that four Objectionable constitu-

synthetic colors, preservatiyes, sac
charm and polluted water The report
says:
The only way to safely guard the
public Is to exclude synthetic colors
entirely as they possess no 1000 Ydlue

ing can be said in favor of benzoic and
saficylic acids used as preservatiyes,
as they retard the process of digest ton.
Eleven OF the beverages were manu-
featured either from unboiied water
or from water carrying sewage con-
tamination.

GRAND JURORS PAY
CAMPS A VISIT.
Investigate Conditions
at Jefferson Square
and Golden Gate Park
CLARK GIVES WAY


An investigating committee of
grand jurymen, composed of w. P.
Scott, j. f. Brannan, MYRTLE Cert and
F. ]. Sullivan. visited the relief camps
at Jefferson square and Golden Gate
Park yesterday and made a searching
inquiry into the methods of the Off
eials who are conducting the relief
work at these camps. The members
expressed their approval of the man
ner in which superintendent Sullivan
is running jefferson square but would
not say anything about the Golden
Gate Park camp.
Joseph r. Clark the refugee who is
accused of attempting to blackmail
James D. Phelan, chairman of the
finance committee. backed water when
the foreman Of the Grand Jury visited
him in Jefferson Square camp and
asked II he had any complaints to lay
before the investigators.
What kind of complaints inquired
Clark cautiously.
Any kind whatsoever" answered w.
P. Scott Of the jury.
mo, I have none ut all, only some
people haven't any blankets returned
the man of threats.
YES, we understand that there are
no blankets. The people in charge are
doing all they can and IS fast as they
can"
Clark declined to talk about his
plans and would not produce his pam
phlet of charges against the relief
workers. The jurors found that gem
eral satisfaction prevailed In the camp.
Several indictments attempted to make
trouble, but had little announcement.
Mr. Sullivan must be given credit
for the manner in which he is looking
after the welfare of the people of JEFF
ferson camp said one OF the grand
jurors. Everything is in perfect or
der, and while there are g few dis
gruntled persons there, we have found
their complaints are without feunda-
ton.
"One woman, who says she is pro-
fessional nurse, complained of not
having clothes enough. This woman
has two sons who are working. She
was offered better accommodations at
the Preside, but she refused to go
there and still complains"
The committee refused to commend
or criticise the way affairs are being
handled by the officials in charge of the
camp at Golden Gate Park, but they
will make report TO the inquisitorial
body when it meets today. The inves
tigation will go on. however, as there
are several other camps which the
committee intends to visit.
When the body meets this afternoon
the insurance question win come up
for consideration. IT is likely the Po-
lice Commission scandal will be dis
cussed, but 1t is not known what
action will be taken.
