OTHER RALEIGH news

Raleigh, N. c., Aug. 31.-Stase
Food Chemist w. M. Allen, OF the
North Carolina department of agri-
culture, has returned from Duluth,
Mich. where he attended the Nation
al Association of Food Officials IN
session there the past week, he be
ing the secretary of the association.
He says the Wi1ey-Wilson contest
that has been stirring the country for
some time was clearly in evidence
in the association with the two fac
tions very closely divided, so close
ly, in fact, that resolutions for neith-
er Wiley nor Wilson could be gotten
through the association although the
friends of both introduced fesolu-
tons however, when it came to the
election of officers the Wiley wing
of the association elected it's candi-
dates. headed by L. P. Brown, Of
Tennessee as president. This is Mr..
Aliens third term as secretary. The
general view OF the Wiley-W Wilson
contest taken by the association of
food officials is that Wilson is con.
tending for the protection of a few
favored manufacturers of food pro-
ducts and Wiley is standing for the
strict enforcement of the pure food
laws and the protection of the con-
sumers.
The contract for furnishing Raj
eigh's new 100000 mcnicipal build
ing just completed was awarded to-

certain. There were twelve bidders
in, and out of the state and the con-
tract is for all the wood furnishings
which are to be Of fine quality, quar-
ter-sawed oak, much of it hand carv-
ed. The contractors say there is not
as handsome an equipment in any
similar building in the two Carolinas.

signed and the equipment is to be in
