The housewife will have a choicF
of two classes of canned foods under
the amendment TO the federal food
just signed by the President. says w.
G. Campbell, chief of the food and
drug administration. United States De
partment of Agriculture.
This amendment, known as the
Gamers bill" authorizes the secre-
tary of agriculture TO promulgate
from time to time reasonable stand
ards of quality. condition, and fill of
container for each generic class of
canned food except meat and meat
products and canned milk Such
standards are now being formulated
by the department. The law also
authorizes the secretary to prescribe
form of statement which will clearly
differentiate substandard articles from
those which meet the standards.
The value of this law TO the house
wife will be the assurance that the
canned foods she purchases meet a
definite standard established by a gov
eminent agency, Mr.. Campbell points
out. The amendment will not cOnstf
tute a bar 70 the manufacture and
sale Of wholesale canned foods of a
quality lower titan the standard, but
such products must be labeled inform
atively so that if the housewife wishes
a less expensive canned product she
will be able to buy il with full knOwl-
edge of its character-presumab at
a lower price-and with full aSsur-
ance that it is a wholesome product
and neither aduterated nor mis-
branded.

such choice, and there probably is no
woman whose work is sufficiently
notable to make such a selection pos
sible. In theory the choice is said to
be made by the prime minister.
