SUPREME COURT
UPHOLDS DRUG
LAW AMENDMENT I
Advertisements Claiming Cur
atiye Powers May Lead TO
Prosecution by Depart
nnent Of Justice,

tpf MORNING JOURNAL srEcihl LhasHr WiFsl
Washington, Jan. l0.--After ten
years of legislation and litigation, the
supreme court decided today that con-
gress had enacted finally constitu-
ltional law regulating statements as to
the curative effects of medicines in in
terstate commerce. The decision was
rendered by Justice Hughes. MINER
Gus actions against drug concerns are
expected to follow.
For a time it was urged by govern
ment officials that the 1906 pure tood
law designated as misbranded drugs
or medicines which were accompanied
in Interstate commerce by knowingly
false statements about the curative
effects Of the compounds. The su-
preme court decided, however that
the 1906 law applied to misbrandlnB
as to the identity or composition OF
drugs.
in response to message from Pres
ident Taft, congress in 1917 enacted
the Sherley amendment, which the SUI
preme court held today, struck pre-
cisely at mis-statcments either on the
label or in printed circulars accom-
panying medicines
I'VE find no ground, said Justice
Hughes, for saying that congress
may not condemn interstate transpor-
tation of swindllng preparations ac-
companied by false and fraudulent
statements as well as lottery tickets.
The Justice held that congress has
not entered the field of difference OF
opinions between schools and pracu-
toners. but merely had sought to ex-
clude false and fraudulent state
ments from interstate commerce.
The decision was announced in the
case Of a Chicago drug concern which
shipped medicine from Chicago to
Omaha. described in an accompanying
circular as a compound which it knew
had cured and would cure tuberculo-
sis.

his office chair and without batting an

Moreover Senator Smoot, still with

"If Theodore Roosevelt would come

Senator Smoot did not say that he
