TIE SPRNGTIFE OF THE FOOD ADULIFRATORS DSCONTfzNT

House bill, while the House would have
a Senate bill to consider. This would lead
to just such a confusing perplexity as the
food adulterator would like. In the long
struggle that would ensue in trying to
formulate law from ths-resultant chaos
the food adulterators would be permitted
TO run riot in our midst, poisoning and
robbing at will. and the final outcome un-
doubtedly would be the surrendering OF
many of the most important points in the
proposed legislation In order to get any
kind of a measure enacted
The House committee on interstate COM
merce has demeaned itself admirably In
the formation of a food bill to be pre-
sented TO Congress. The committee Sc
lected the best provisions of the Hepburn
bill and incorporated them in the measure
II will present to Congress under the
name of the Hepburn bill. 1t will bear
the name and number of the measure
passed by the Senate. AS in the fight for
pure food legislation before the Senate,
so in the committees conference it was
the Southern representatives who were
the principal opponents TO the measure
Adamson and Bartlett OF Georgia and
Russell Of Texas were the only members
of the committee who failed to concur In
the decision relative to The form OF the
measure. These Representatives prepared
a minority report in which they declare
that the Hepburn bill is an assumption OF
the police powers Of the State by the Ma
The San Francisco call., 1906-04-01

tional Government. Again it is the old
question of States rights which the
South assumes to guard with such assidu-
ity. The majority report was prepared
by Representative Mann of Illinois and
proposes a bill that ought to be accept
able to every section Of the country.
One OF the most vital amendments to
the bill is a provision that In fixing
standards of food products for the
guidance OF officials charged with ad-
ministering food laws the Secretary of
Agriculture shall also consult the COM
mittee on food standards of the Asso-
citation of State Dairy and Food De-
partments. In the amended bill it is
proved that when any person or man.
ufacturer desires to have the whole
someness of any preservative or other
substance added to foods passed upon
the Secretary of Agriculture shall name
a commission OF scientists, consisting
OF one toxicologist. one physiological
chemist one bacteriologist, one pathol-
ogist and fifth scientist whom the
Secretary OF Agriculture may regard as
qualified to assist him in reaching a
decision"
The committee believes this means of
fixing standards and determining
wholesomeness will remove many OBJ
jections offered by manufacturers to
having the power too greatly centered
in DR.. Wiley, the chief of the bureau of
chemistry of the Department of Agri-
culture.

partments, showing many OF the most
common and dangerous food adulter-
ants which the people might see and
examine for themselves. Speeches were
made at this show by many of the
foremost pure food advocates of Amer
ica- The Federation Of Women's Clubs
and the Consumers League participat-
ed in the speaking programme and all
handled the food adulterator without
gloves. The newspapers gave liberal
reports of the many sensational condi-
tions revealed at the show and the
result was that the eyes of Chicago and
the West were opened to state OF af-
fairs which many did not know to
exist
Now the opponents Of the pure food
bill had always contended that there
was no sentiment for food law in
the West, but when Washington and
the different State commissions hur-
ried to show the numberlessN ocular
evidences of amazing food frauds it did
not take long to create a sentiment in
Chicago and the West. The result was
that national gatherings OF men and
women adopted resolutions urging the
passage of the Hepburn bill and a loud
voice went up from out of the West.
joining with the East in demands for
national protection from the outrages
perpetrated by the food adulterator.
But the one cause that contributed
more toward the passage of the bill
than anything else was produced by the
