WARN DEALERS AGAINST
UNWARRANTED INCREASE

Washington, Feb. 1.-Unwarranted price
increases in wheat -four substitutes will
not be permitted The food administra-
ton tonight gave warning to dealers that
they must not take advantage of tenn
porary shortages in other cereals brought
on by the heavy demand the new bak-
ing regulations has caused.
THE normal tendency of local search
ties" said Mr.. Hoover, would be to
advance prices out OF line with the cost
of production and distribution. Under
the food control act this will not happen.
All license and dealing in food communi-
ties who do not give their customers the
benefit Of fair and moderate prices, self
ing at no more than reasonable profit
above cost will have their licenses re-
voked.'

Resolution Modified

Resolution Modified
The resolution, modified to read de
cisions of the courts in place of unjust
verdicts" was passed by an overWhelm-
ing majority.
The convention then took up the ques-
ton of sending congratulatory message,
to the Eolsheviki government in Petro-
grad. The so-called Mansheviki elemens
hopelessly outnuhbered, wanted the mes
sage to ielicitate the people OF Russia
but not the government.
In the midst of the discussion, Berk-
man was escorted to the front OF the
platform and Immediately became the
storm center of a wildly enthusiastic
demonstration. Apologizing for his ina
blity to address the delegates in they.
native tongue, he said
II have been in America so long I have
lost my Russian tongue | greet you
with congratulations on this spirit OF
revolutions which gives inspiration to the
whole world, including the American pei
pie. This is my last goodbye to YOU To
morrow l will be in prison"
His reference to prison was greeted
with cries of No. No."
Proud of Russian Citizenship
Il am proud of the fact that ! am
a Russian citizen" he went on, when
the uproar had ceased. II have been
in this country 80 years, but never
took out papers of allegiance. / hope
you will carry through in this country
the spirit of the Russian revolution"
When Berllnan sat down 1t was Miss
Goldman's turn to make a dramatic
appearance. She was escorted to the
platform while most OF the delegates
stood on chairs and cheered at the
top of their voices. She, too, spoke
in English, but apologized FOR it, de-
claring it was almost a sacrilege not
to be able to address the convention
In Russian. IF any of you get back
to Russia before we do" she said, de-
claring she had no fear of an Ameri-
can jail Just tell them that as long
as life lasts we will carry the spir-
it of the Russian revolution through
( the United States until we have tri-
umphed here as they have triumphed
there.
After Berkman and Miss Goldman
had departed il was decided to send
q cableeram congratulating the Boil
, sheviki government and through it the
people of Russia on their achievements
since the revolution began. This move
was bitterly opposed by the hfansheyi-
XII. who declared that it did not rep

LABELS SPEAK TRULY
Misbrandins of Hundreds of ALLEGED
Cures Corrected by Ten Years Of
Food and Drugs Act.

Ten years ago there was no aiIment
to which human flesh is heir that some
maker OF patent medicines did not
claim to be able to cure with such ease
lhat 1t seemed almost the height of
1oollshness not to part with the price
for his nostrums
To-day, because of the operation of
the Federal Food and Drugs Act. the
extravagant promises of cure. that
characterized the labelling of the pa
tent medicines of 10 years ago have
practically disappeared from the
preparations that enter interstate
commerce. They may, however, still
be found in newspaper and other ad-
Vertlsements that are not subject to
the act. The pure food law" as it
Is known, is concerned only with the
package as it is shipped in interstate
commerce. If one questions the truth
or a newspaper advertisement of q
patent medicine, let him read the Ia
bel on the carton or bottle at the cor
ner drug store. The latter will come
nearer telling the truth about the
medicine.
Misbrandnes Corrected
ing value Of hundreds of alleged cancer
cures, socalled cures" for coughs,
colds, consumption. kidney diseases,
epilepsy, st. Nitus dance. and the
like. have been corrected. This is
told in the annual report Of the Blu
reau of Chemistry, United states De
partment Of Agriculture, which re-
views the operation Of the Food and
Drugs Act in the safeguarding Of the
health Of the American people
The law requires the labels of pa
tent medicines to declare the presence
of any habit forming drug, such as
opium, cocaine. or alcohol, thus pre-
venting the innocent development of
the dru" habit. This provision of
the law is particularly valuable in
warning mothers against the use Of
so-called infant soothing sirups con-
tanning opium.
When the act went into effect drug
addiction was so prevalent that frauds
in the treatment of the victims were
frequent. and in most instances the
remedy advertised SO forcefully by
the labels contained the very drug
from which escape was desired.
Habit Forming Drugs Controlled
In 1907 the Bureau of Chemistry
found that 80 soft drinks contained
small amounts Of cocaine Practically
all of these were suppressed. The
Food and Drugs Act is regarded as
having been an important factor in
bringing about the passage Of the
Harrison anti-narcotic law, which
more effectively controls habit form
ing narcotics.
Much has been done, the report saws
to control the indiscriminate use of
called headache remedies contain
ing dangerous. depressing drugs, and
OF dangerous cosmetics making claim
to healing value; and in raising the
quality of the supply Of crude drugs
through the examination Of imports
As result of cooperative work with
the Post Office Department a num-
Der OF fraud orders were issued by
that department preventing the use az
the mails in promoting the sale of
fraudulent medicines
