ssBleached Flour" Wins
Supreme Court Decision

Washington, D. C. - Millers and
food manufacturers generally through
out the country won decisive victory
over the government Wednesday when
the Supreme court held that Federal
inspectors could not condemn under
the pure food law s'bleached four
unless they proved that the flour con-
tanned enough poisonous ingredients
added in bleaching to make the flour
injurious to health.
Officials of the department of agri-
culture have fought the case bitterly,
contending that the adding of any
quantity of poisonous ingredients was
in violation of the law.
The case just decided originated in
the District court of Western Mis-
souri,. The government sought to con-
denim 625 sacks of flour bleached by
the Lexington Mills company by the
so-called "Alsop process" The gov
eminent contended that in bleaching
the flour to give it color to hide its
inferiority, certain nitrates, or poison
Gus ingredients, were added and that
this violated the law, no matter what
the quantity.
In announcing the decision. of the
court, Justice Day pointed out that
the government complained only that
1.8 parts to 1000, 900 of poisonous
character was added by bleaching.

VILLA CITES PRECEDENTS
IN DEFENSE OF EXECUTION

Washington, D. Gin telegram
to the Constitutionalist agent here,
General Villa declares the execution
of William s. Benton was justified by
European and American precedents.
He adds:
General Jackson in 1918 hung two
British subjects, Arbuthnot and Am
brister, for having given alien sym
pathy to hostile Indians in Florida.
General Butler hanged Mumford at
New Orleans in 1862 for merely haul
ing down an American flag from over
the custom house, and two years later
Kennedy was hanged by the United
States military authorities at New
York because of his completely in a
plot to set fire to that city.
tWhat was justifiable under mar
tial law in the United States then, is
certainly justifiable under martial law
in Mexico now. The fact that Benton
was British subject has no bearing
