is what inducement in the way of

DR.. Fowler said he had directed his
inspectors to order any dealer sell \
ing them to display a sign, advising
the public that they had been syn
thetically prepared. Analine color
ing used in foodstuffs, he said, is not
harmful and the only question involv-
ed Is whether the dye conceals the
quality of the article.
When the situation was brought to
the attention of Senator Royal S. Cope

Fowler was undoubtedly restrained by
the law. He asserted, however. that

is misleading and entirely wrong and is
nothing less than fraudulent practice.
