The Food and Drug Law.
rom the Roanoke Times.


According to . Washington dispatch,
administration leaders are seriously
contemplating revision of the Federal
food and drug law to provide q way of
penalizing advertisers who mislead con-
sumers. The existing law contains q
number Of loopholes and an un-
scrupulcus manufacturer has no trouble
in taking advantage Of them in such
a way as to deceive the public.
Newspaper publishers rs well a. re-
putable manufacturers will support q
proper move to strengthen the exis ing
law and remedy It's defects. For every
reputable newspaper, as well Is every
reputable advertiser, suffers wher the
public Is inhaled by deceptive advertis-
ing.
It Is due the large number Of Arms
doing business under the food and drug
law to point out that most of them do
not need to be restrained. They suffer
quite as much as does the consuming
public by the fact that Q conscienceless
few deliberately take advantage Of the
laws weakness.

Templeton Jones stopped to admire
the armful of iris blossoms.
They were very nice blooms, he
thought, but nothing unusual. not any
better than he had In his own yard.
Now Jones has keen eye for such
things, and q very fair mind, and II
they had been bigger or better In any
way he would have known 1t.
What was his surprise to hear, there
fore, that these specimens represented
some Of the newer varieties, about
which he had often read.
He had never seen them, except At
shows; now here they were before him
and he would not have known them
anything exceptional II he had not
been told!
Mr.. Jones wondered II this were not
often the case, that newer things. IN
Horticulture. often are no better than
older varieties.
It is Just the newness thereof, and
probably the cost. which constitutes
their charm to many.
Out In the garden rows, old things
do quite as well, even II "old."
After all, quite the oldest varieties,
In the more popular flowers, are com.
paratively new, as the world goes.
II X
The reasons for the incessant clamor
for newer and newest varieties are
many; some of these hinge on COM
merce, others on human nature.
It Is well that there is this incessant
production Of new varieties. whether In
iris. or peonies. or lilacs, or gladioli, or
whatnot
Man has an investigational spirit.

annually confronts the producers Of
horal beauty.
The home gardener often feels 1t,
especially after he has gardened for a
number Of years.
He may feel, personally, that no new
variety Of gladiolus ever will give him
the thrill he frst experienced when his
first blossoms Of the old variety Byron
L. Smith opened in his small garden.
With what happiness, IN a flower
sense. did he inspect the creamy Flora,
one bright dewey morning
His reward for waiting 80 days-or
had 1t been 90 days-for his Schwaben
bulbs to flower had been well repaid.
He Is still willing to believe that no
gladiolus spike, no matter how horif-
erous, or how different, will ever pro-
duce finer or more exquisite blooms
than those, when properly grown in
full sun.
Keeping up with the new flower va
rieties, perhaps. is something like at
tempting to keep up with the new
books-it is an impossible task, espe-
cially in these days. when the creation
Of new things has gone into a sort
Of mass production, too.
The average home gardener settles
this matter for himself, happily. most
usually by not bothering with the
newer things.
He may read the catalogues and
muse over the novelties. but the fact
Is that he purchases few Of them.
This Is left, and most properly, one
may believe to those persons who do
what Is called specialize In some one
flower.
Such persons, indeed, are the right
ones to indulge in experimentation
along these lines. Q
They have both the inclination and
the money, and it takes both.
The average gardener finds that the
purchase Of older varieties which he
has not tried Is experimentation
enough for him.

Truly, the old flowers are - beau

No doubt there are many varieties

There Is not so much style change. In

The sensible grower will not be car

of the creator, the man who has spent
his entire time with one flower, and
who has helped bring into being either
new type, or q slightly different shape,
or color, or any other matter.
Such man, naturally enough, would
be an enthusiast. His natural reactions
must be taken with the proverbial grain

Should he Junk his old and satisfac-

An affirmative would be more in place
with these flowers, perhaps, than with
many others.
Some experts go so far as to say that
certain we'll known older varieties
should no longer be planted by any
one, since they have been totally out

Tenpleton Jones, iris fan but by
no means an expert" wondered about
that, as he looked at the armful OF
newer creations by the hybridizers.

more so than the old time-tried, old
varieties In his border by the garage

Our people, under these continued at

Is terrible to chronicle, but true, that
We have finally turned one on another
In this matter Of Just keeping our jobs
until men and women who have worked
side by side for years are no longer
speaking to each other. and one group
has even gone 50 far as to petition
Congress to enforce the marital pro-
vision 50 that others (themselves) who
will suffer by these two new injustices
might be saved. God help US!
A few short months ago we would

Now. after year Of fraxzled nerves,

Any employed worker who honestly
gives Of himself to his work and en-
ployer realizes that the only true bases
OF employment are qualification and
efficiency. Any other basis Immediately
allows Determinations against one or
another group that eventually react to
the detriment Of all groups. This was
demonstrated plainly to some Of us last
year when the marriage clause was
enacted by Congress. It Is being dem
onstrated very forcibly to other great
groups now that the 30-year service
and quota questions are before the
Congress. The members Of Congress
themselves, as servants Of the people,
should be solidly against such fallacies
rather than expecting to find the solu-
ton Of our problems in them. BY advo.

morale OF all public servants, and by
enactlng them into law they are in

standards Of employment Just Is false

ture.

munity Of Government workers, can
do wonders to help us out Of the sick
condition that this year OF uncertainty
and continual attack has reduced US to,
Our return to normal healthy mental
condition, OF course, Is predicated In the
fnal analysis on certainty as to our
jobs and financial ability to meet our
obligations. But the type of work YOU
have been doing the last few weeks will
tend to unite us again, so that we will
again stand shoulder to shoulder, ready
to help each other no matter what hap
pens. And this return to normalcy on
our part, the $4,000 of US, cannot help
but be reflected throughout the country
in our friends, relatives and dependents
Thank you again for your support OF
the merit system, and please keep on
until Congress returns to its sanity %
far as we are concerned and helps us
win back our rightfu place as trusted
servants Of the American people.
