national headquarters al Washington:
An extraordinary opportunity pre-
sents itself here for medical research
work We have, serving win various
American units, some of the aolesf doc

INDIANAPOLIS. Aug. 29-warning
against use Of chemicals in canning
compounds by Indiana housewives
was issued today by DR.. Harry E. Bar
nard. state food administrator. He de-
cIared that sterilization by heat was
the only proper method OF preserving
fruits and vegetables.
There are two ways Of preserving
fruits and vegetables Barnard said
zone is to sterilize them by heat and
che other to pickle them with chemi-
Gals Some states prohibit the sale OF
products containing chemicals. al
though they do not deny the house
wife the right to use them II she is 50
foolish as to prefer TO use chemicals
instead of care. Unfortunately many
states. although they have pure food
laws. pay no attention to the use Of
preservatives- And so 1t IS that at this
season Of the year canning compounds
are widely advertised and many women
foolishly are persuaded TO try them.
These compounds. which usually con-
tain borax or boric acid or salicylic
acid or some similar antiseptic are
not usually sold through the stores.
but by agents who find it easy in
wives to substitute a spoonful OF
chemical preservatives for careful
sterilization by boiling water.
The agents for canning compounds
are very active this year The desire
that every housewife has to save the
perishable products OF her garden has
made canning a universal industry
and every woman a prospective Gus
toner. Do not allow any agent to
persuade you that he has a substitute
for sterilization 1t may be possible to
preserve fruits and vegetab Ies without
tedious heating. but unless you are
willing TO eat food containing such
quantities of chemicals that bacteria
finds IL an, unwholesome place in
which to live. you will rely on the
proven virtue Of boiling water as the
only safe and accepted method for
preventing spoilage."
