At the age of sixty-seven DR.. Haf
vey w. Wiley, chief chemist in the
department of agriculture and chief
crusader in the United States for pure
food and drugs. at last has taken unto
himself a wife. His marriage to Miss
Anna Campbell Kelton of Washington
was an event of national Importance
Some of the jokesmiths are expressing
the hope that the new Mrs. Wiley is a
good cook. for DIR. Wiley certainly de-
serves a wife who. If she does not ac-
tually do the family cooking. is capa-
bic of supervising the work scienti1-
cally.
Mrs. Wiley is the youngest daughtoe
of the late Brigadier General John G.
Kelton, who was governor of the Sol
diers' home at Washington at the time
of his death. She is president of the
Woman's Suffrage league of the Dis
trict of Columbia. For several years
she has held an important position in
the library Of congress
II is gratifying TO note that "a break
fast followed the wedding ceremony"
after which DR.. and Mrs. Wiley start
ed on a bridal tour to last several
weeks. Mrs. Wiley's age is less than
half that OF her husband. DIR. Wiley
is the man who led the crusade
against food and drug adulteration
which resulted in the enactment by
congress OF the measure known as the
pure food law. This law requires the
labelling Of all food packages so that
the buyer may know the exact nature
of the contents. Recently DR.. Wiley
in a speech declared that this is an
overdrugged nation and also that al
cohol is harmful. and the prohibition
OF the liquor traffic would be a bless.

NOT TO RECOGNIZE
THE INSURGENTS
BY The United Press

By The United Press
WASHINGTON. May l1.--Recogni-
uon of the Mexican insurrectos as bel
ligerents by the United States is prac-
tically no nearer today than before
the capture of Juarez it was declared
by officials who have been searching
the international law records for pre-
cedents.
The principal reason for not recog-
nizing belligerency in Mexico is that
by so doing the United States would
abandon all claims for reparation for
damages suffered by American citi-
zens through the revolution. Also.
recognition at this time, when not
compelled by necessity, would be con-
strued the world over as a declaration
of the moral support of the revolution
by the United States. Such an act
would be a complete reversal of the
present hands off" policy, it is as
