Gust McCabe In Pure Food Fight.
In sudden succession of orders,
an initial move in the expected reor-
ganzation of the department of az
rculture at Washington, Solicitor
George p. MeCabe was retired from
the pure food and drug board; Assoc
ciate Chemist r. l.. Dunl0, closely
identified with McCabe, was allowed
leave of absence until the presidents
return. and Chemist Harvey WvWiley
was left apparently in supreme COM
mand of the board. DIR. Il. Il. Doolittle,
of New York, was temporarily appoint
ed to the board to succeed McCabe.
These changes were announced by
Secretary Wilson, following a confer
ence with Dr. Wiley, who has been on
a long vacation. They were deemed In
evitable in view of the official and
personal antagonlsm aired before a
congressional committee the past sum-
mer and DR.. Wiley's exoneration by
President Taft, after Attorney General
Wickersham, with views aligned with
those of Secretary Wilson and Solicit
tor McCabe, had recommended DR..
Wiley's removal from Office as head
of the chemistry bureau because of
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 en-
forcement of the pure food law. DIR.
Wiley declared that he was usually
outvoted and made number of SEN
sational statements in the investiga-
ton of the controversy Smarting I'M
der the frequent overruling of his
views, wherein he held food products
deleterious to health, he told con-
gressional committee that he regarded.
his associate, DR.. Dunlap. as his SUI
perior officer.
