DR. WILEY SAYS STARCH TRUST LIES BEHIND
FIGHT FOR CHEAP FLOUR
BY gibson GARDNER

w. Wiley, pure food expert and for
mer chief of the bureau Of chemistry
of the department Of agriculture, is
opposed to the passage of the VoH-
mer-Cummins bin repeating the tax
on mixed, -four, which purports to be
in the interest of cheaper bread.
1.-THE mixing of cheaper flour, or
starches, with wheat flour never was,
nor would it be now, a measure which
would diminish in the slightest
amount the cost Of bread" said Dr..
Wiley today in answer to questions.
"On the contrary, - he continued, "the
effect would be to raise considerably
the price of bread. The result Of the
mixture would be the selling of the
loaf as wheat bread and at wheat
bread prices, thus forcing the con-
sumner to pay the higher price for the
cheaper article. The only persons
benefited by this species Of adultera-
ton would be those making the
starch and those selling the bread.
The consumer would be In every in
stance defrauded.
Some seventeen years ago the
practice Of mixing corn starch with
wheat flour was extensively adopted
by the Glucose Manufacturing Co.,
the predecessor Of the present Corn
Products Refining Co. This company,
then, as now, controlled the greater
part of the starch product of the
country. Corn cannot be ground fine
enough to enable it to be easily mixed
with wheat flour, but corn starch
when finely ground looks like and
feels like -four and the difference can
only be ascertained by chemical an
aIysis or by the microscope. In order
to correct this evil, congress enacted |
the mixed flour act. The statement
made that this act was Spanish war
measure is wholly erroneous.

AS IT SOMETIMES HAPPENS
Proof That Reality and Romance May Sometimes Be Things That Are
 Far Apart.

A glorious, clear October moon sil- vered the autumn tints of forest and glade that lay spread out before the silent pair.
 Reverently he turned and gazed on her beautiful face. How he loved her!
 A longing to confess his passion welled upward from his very soul, but the words would not come.
 Darling" he murmured
 But she did not hear him-she thought he was swearing at the weather.
 Then courage came to him.
 'I love your he whispered. little louder, and, trembling at his own dar- ing, stood watching the effect of his avowal
 Joyi-and all that sort of thing. Her color came and went in a most be- witching manner. Her lips trembled with unspoken words.
 He silently took her little hand.
 q love you," he repeated, with much feeling and little originality
 Slowly the heavy lids opened wide. showing a look of expectancy in her violet eyes. With eyes still wide open she half turned from him, and sneezed
