TO ALL COUNTY
FOOD ADMINISTRATORS

II has come to our attention that
certain unscrupulous millers and 9TH
ers are placing on the market as food
for human consumption, laundry
such as Corn Flour, Corn .etiains
starch under various brand names
such as Corn Flour, Corn Starch
Flour Corn Starch, etc.
This commodity which is technic-
ally known as Pearl starch, is used
in laundries and in textile industries
and 1t was determined by the Depart.
ment of Agriculture sometime ago
that it is unfit for human consump-
tion and deleterious to health.
Will you kindly bring this matter
to the attention of your merchants
marketing of Pearl or Powdered
starch under any designation as food
for human consumption, is stopped.
Under recent rulings no starch of
any kind may be sold in the United
States for domestic or export use,
branded as Corn Flour or with any
ether name in which the words Corn
and Flour appear.
This does not refer to edible corn
starch produced and marketed as
such by reputable starch manufacture
ers.

This, he said, was about the same
percentage as had been discovered in

Boston, June 8.-Thorough and sys-
tematic state medical supervision Of
industries so as to detect cases of in
cipient tuberculosis among workers
was advocated by Dr. George Nj.
Price in an address he delivered to-.
day before the annual meeting OF the
National tuberculosis Association.
Dr.. Price is director of the Joint
Board of Sanitary Control in wom-
ems clothing industries of New York
City he said.
THE present lack of industrial
medical supervision makes it impos-
sible to discover incipient cases Of
tuberculosis.
'The present treatment Of patients
in sanatoria in regard to exercise
and work is absurd and dangerous to
the patients.
The present practice of throwing
out post-tuberculosis patients from
the sanatoria and hospitals and leav-
ing them to shift for themselves is
no less than criminal
THE solution of the problem of the
discovery of incipient tuberculosis is
thorough, systematic state medical
supervision of industries.
THE solution of the problem OF
sanatorium treatment is bringing the
factory to the sanatorium.

post-tuberculous worker is state in.
