W. c. Haskell, sealer of weights and
measures of this city, who is charged
with the duty of seeing that the peo-
pie get full weight of all kinds of food
products sold by the local merchants,
declares that consumers of flour here
lose about 1000 year in their flour
purchases. He has recommended to the
commissioners of the District of Co.
lumbia that they ask congress to en-
act law covering the delivery of
short weight pao Kages of -four. and 1t
is probable that the recommendation
will be approved by the commissioners.
Colonel Haskell declares that the
shortage in weight of the sacks of flour
that are sent to this city by the millers
averages about four pounds to the
barrel. On the basis of consumption
of 100000 barrels annually the total
shortage is about million and a quart
er pounds, which, at 3la cents a pound
means a loss of $4,000 a year to the

Board Will Take Action.

The indications are that the federal
pure food board will take some action
in the matter that will meet the recon-
mendation of the local officers. The
pure food lay requires the manufac-
turer to state the exact weight of food
in packages sent into interstate COM
merce. 1t is claimed by shippers of
some products that there is always a
shrinkage in their products, which can
not be accurately determined, and that
therefore some allowance should be
made for that shrinkage.
This matter has been the subject
of a hearing before the pure food board
in the past few days, and a ruling is
expected in a sohrt time. DIR. Harvey
w. Wiley, chief of the bureau of
chemistry. in his comments at the hear
ing, indicated that a substantial com
pliance with the law would be re-

BOARD IS ALL RIGHT
Wilson Can Prosecute Violations OF
Pure Food Laws

Washington. April l7-That the
referee board of the department of
agriculture. whose duty it is to in
vestigate the wholesomeness or the
deleteriousness of foods and articles
used in foods, is legally constitut-
ed body and that Secretary Wilson
had ample authority to appoint the
board, was the decision today of At
torney General Wickersham. The de-
cision, which was made public by Sec
retary Wilson. also holds that the lat
ter was vested with authority to pay
the salaries and expenses of the men,
bers of the board and their assist
ants. s-
The decision is of far-reaching i'm
portance because it means that the
work of the referee board on the
wholesomeness of sulphur. saccharine
and copper saults will be continued.
The attorney general holds that the
sundry civil act is directed only
against those boards or commissions
that are authorized by law.
Secretary Wilson referred the ques-
tion of the legal status of the board
to the attorney general. it having
been claimed that the action of the
former in appointing such a board
was without authority of law. because
the duty of examining foods was vest
ed by congress in the bureau of chem
istry of the department of agricul-
ture. The opinion points out that the
federal statutes do not provide for
the creation of the bureau of chem
istry but that it's existence is recog-
nized in the appropriation acts. 1t
alos is held taht it was necessary for
Secretary Wilson to have recourse to
the disinterested and unbiased advice
of the expert chemists composing the
board whenever serious conflict Of
opinion arose as to the deleterious-
ness of any particular article or SUBJ
stance added to foods.

Washington. April 17.-N1ore than

ly for the purchase of this explosive

most unique engineering projects in
the entire construction have just been
undertaken. One is the excavation be-
low the sea level in the AIindi hills
near the Atlantic ocean entrance to

ing from Limon bay at the mouth of
