Food Inspector Hansen in attendance
on the Pure Food convention. Referring
to the extended discussion on benzoate

the Utah pure food law is marked

ton the Utah law specifies distinct
~ just what ingredients can not be
used as adnlterants or preservatives in
food production Thus the manueact.
5urer knows Just where he is at,''wl,at
he can. and what he can not do. IN
other states the legal provision is
merely against harmful ingredients.
leaving It TO the. courts to decide what
is and What is .r,t har.n.ui with ex-
pert re..tipiong testifving In favor of
both sides. Prof Harms says there is
no state in the Union better fortified
against swtndles in food than Is Utah.
