those Of Secretary Wilson and Solicit
tor McCabe, had recommended DR..
Wiley's removal from office as head
Of the chemistry bureau because of a
technical irregularity in appointive
methods. the responsibility for which
he denied.
The pure food and drug board is
the agency which passes upon many
important cases arising under the
enforcement Of the pure food law. DR..
Wiley, Solicitor McCabe and DR.. Dun
lap were the members of the board,
in which DR.. Wiley declared that he
usually was outvoted. Smarting un-
der the frequent over-ruling of his
views wherein he held food products
deleterious to health, he told a con-
gressional committee that he regarded
his associate, DR.. Dunlap, as his su-
perior officer.
Secretary Wilson's brief announce
ment of the change stated that Solici-
tor McCabe voluntarily resigned and
that his resignation had been accept
ed.
DR.. Dunlap was acting chairman Of
the board when DIR. Wiley was absent
from Washington. Whether DR.. Dun
lap will return to his duties on the
board was not stated. His temporary
withdrawal was attributed officially to
the fact that he is to take the Gus
tomary four weeks vacation; but Sec
retary Wilson stated that DR.. Dunlap
would not return until after President
Taft had returned to Washington.
In place Of Solicitor McCabe to
serve with DR.. Wiley on the board,
Secretary Wilson appointed Doolittle,
long member of the bureau of chem
istry force. and now head of that bu-
reau's station in New York. Dr. Wiley
and DR.. Doolittle will constitute the
majority of the board for the imme-
date future. the latter's appointment
being necessary to give the boards ac-
tions legal effect.
The reasons for Solicitor McCabe's
resignation We're not announced. Sec
retary Wilson stated that McCabe's
duties as solicitor remain unchanged.
and under the general provisions of
the law, he will continue to exercise
an important control over the enforce
ment of the pure food law.
For the last few weeks the board
has been run by DR.. Dunlap. DR..
| Wiley, the chairman and Solicitor Nc
Cahe. the third member, have been on
extended vacations.
| All officials of the agricultural de-
partment connected with the enforce
ment of the pure food law were ex-
tremely reticent today to discuss the
change. or what permanent changes
in the department may be foreshadow-
ed by it, DR.. Wiley would only say
that the work of the board would con-
tinue as at present. DR.. Doolittle was
appointed to the board, Secretary Will
son said, because he is one of the lead
ing experts in the bureau of chemis-
! try.

fuence in today's Democratic state
convention held to adopt a party plat
form. The convention. under the
Geran election law was composed of
seventy-six men, Gov. Wilson, Demo-
cratic hold-over. state senators and
Democratic candidates for the senate
and assembly.

for the Democratic presidential nom
ination.
Gov. Wilson was chairman of the
committee on resolutions which spent
three hours preparing the platform.
The platform prepared by the Re-
publican state leaders for adoption by
the convention this afternoon eulogizes
the Republican party in national af-
fairs and praises President Taft and
his administration and accuses the
democracy of the state of extrava-
gance and with having last winter
made an increase of a million and a
quarter dollars in the annual appro-
priations.
The platform gives credit to the par

what Is needed is real statesmanship,
less talk and more intelligent action"

of 1901 to support Italy or at least
to be neutral whenever she decides to
