Trying To Qualify
In Love Matters
Especial from United Press.)

Washington, Aug. 1S.-By far the
most contented and happy persons in
the room at the resumption of the
hearings of the House Committee in
vestigating the Wiley case, today,
were DR.. Harvey w. Wiley and his
bride.
AS the chief chemist again took the
stand to resume his story of the al
legged "cabal'' against him-a story
fngton-Mrs. Wiley was at his side
and gave her husband smile and a
nod of encouragement.
One little incident in the hearings
was the following colloquy:
DR.. Wiley stated that the bulletin
giving his decision in the benzoate of
soda controversy was out of print and
could not be had for love nor mon
ey."
"I don't know about love- said
Representative Sloan, (Rep., Neb.)
'but it has been my experience that
money will do a lot.'
1T has been my experience" re-
torted the blushing doctor, turning to-
ward his bride. that love will do
more than money"
Il take it you are an expert in mat
ters of love" suggested Sloan. 'I am
trying to qualify said DR.. Wiley with
a smile, whereupon everyone, includ-
ing Mrs Wiley, applauded vigorously.
As to the attitude of Associate
Chemist Dunlap toward official opin-
ions of the bureau, Wiley said:
His attitude is that no opinion of
the bureau is official until he has ap-
proved it.
THE secretary decided whether
bulletins from the Bureau of Chemis-
try shall be published but he asks
the advice of others than the author.
] have frequently been told that some
of my bulletins were in the hands of

Solicitor McCabe, he was not allowed
TO publish a bulletin on the food laws
of the United States. Subsequently
however, DR.. Dunlap was allowed to
publish a bulletin on the food laws
of Great Britain.

Washington, Aug. 16-That the
wreck of the Federal Express, of the
New York, New Haven & Hartford
Railroad at Bridgeport, CT, might
have been avoided if a crossover had
existed at the danger point instead of
a slip or If automatic train control
apparatus had been installed is the
report of II. w. Belnap. He recon-
mends the installation of such ap-
paratus at danger points. Fifteen
persons were killed and score in
jured in this wreck some of whom
were prominent in this city.
Mr. Belnap is chief inspector Of
safety appliances. to the Interstate
Commerce Commission. His report
was made public here. today.
Belnap summarized his findings as
follows:
"The accident was caused by dis
regard on the part of the engineman
{Curtis) of signals and rules provided
the occurrence of such accidents.
The signals and rules provided by
the railroad company for the preven-
tion of such accidents were adequate
had they been observed.
While the accident was due to dis
regard Dy the engfneman OF the rules
and signal indications. it is probable
that the disastrous consequences Of
such disregard might have been pre-
vented had it been reasonably practi-
cable to have installed a crossover
instead of a slip at the point where
the accident occurred
Belnap recommend that automobile
train control apparatus be installed
at points like that at which the
Bridgeport derailment occurred.
Engineer Curtis. upon whom Bel
nap places the blame for the wreck,
himself, perished in the wreck.
