NOSTYSCM FRAUD STILL ACTIVE,
u. S. DRUG EXPERT DECLARES
Or. J.2J. Durrett Tells Medi-
cal Society Afflicted
Are Prey.
Vast Sums Spent Advertising
Worthless Proprietary
Goods.

The nostTum swindlef, playing upon
the despair Of the sick and the potency
of alcohol, still plies his trade, DR.. j.
J. Durrett. chief Of the drug-control
activities Of the Agriculture Depart
ment told q public meeting held un-
der the auspices Of the Medical. Society
Of the District Of Columbia last night
The ordinary procedure. he revealed,
is to spend vast sums in advertising
some worthless proprietary medicine In
the hope it will be so well established
that the business cap be sold at gooo
profit before Government agents are
able to act. In making case, ne SAID,
IL is necessary for the Government TO
prove not only that the claims made
for q preparation are not true. but
that the advertiser Intentionally Is
misrepresenting his product.
On the whole, DR.. DurTett said, claims
have been more Subdued in recent years.
The old "cure-alls" largely have dis
appeared, from the market. due to the
AgricuIture Departments activities, or
the labels have been changed so that
they approximate the truth. In some
cases. he said, the wording Is quite
clever, SO that it is hard to make out
an actual case of Misrepresentation. al
though the product has no real value.
Play on. Medical Fads..
The nostrum makers, he said, play
upon current medical fads. Thus, WITHIN
the past few years several preparations
have appeared claiming to contain three
or four essential vitamins. The WORD

ness. which was claimed to restore

said, will learn whether they are re-

the family income. Surveys have
shown that families whose total income
is under $4,000 spend an average of ST.
a year for. doctors, nurses, medicines
and hospital care. This increases to an
average of $3l1 annually for families
with an income Of more than $4,000.
The difference, 1t was pointed out, is
not because poor families have less sick
ness than those in comfortable circum-
stances, but because they cannot afford
to take such good care of themselves
A great deal of money, DR.. Rorer said

The windmill plane Is regarded as
an important addition to the aircraft
collection since 1t Is the first succesSiui

is given by the recent award OF the Coll

Time for Conditioning.
Approximately three weeks will be
required to put the machine In conol-
ton for It's trip here, Paul Edward
CARRIER, curator Of aeronautics Tor the
Smithsonian, has been advised. The
craft is stored in the Pitcairn plant at
Willow Grove, Pa.
The machine was built by Juan de

togiro principle, In Spain, and was pur-
chased and brought to this country by
Mr.. Pitcairn In 1925. James Faulkner
probably will ny the historic machine

The Aircraft Museum Building, adj
joining the Smithsonian Building, prob
ably will be ready for opening IN about
three weeks after extensive rebuilding
and improvement, Mr.. CARRIER said. An
automatic sprinkler system Is being In
stalled and the building is ready for
painting. A new electrical installation
is to go in before the opening.
The exhibits in the building will be
about the same as before except for
the addition Of the Bre,ren, German
Junkers monoplane, which was the flrst
airplane to cross the Atlantic In q nom
stop flight from east to west.
To make room for the Bremen, the
wings of the giant flying boat, Ameri-
can wartime patrol craft have been
removed and win be stored away, leav-
ing only the hull, tail and wing stubs
