TUCWELL BILL
TO Be PUSHED
FOR ADOPTION
Pure Food and Drug Meas
ure to Be introduced at
Next Session.
BY DANIEL NJ. KIDNEY
Times Special Writer

WASHINGTON, Nov 2l.-Ths
Tugwell- Copeland pure food and
drugs bill will be ready for reintro-
duction as soon as congress con-
venes, according to w. c. Campbell.
chief of the food and drug admin
iStration in the department OF agri-
culture.
Launching the build-up for better
backing of the Tugwell bill IN the
next congress-, Mr.. Campbell issued
a press release warning against pat
ent medicines containing cincho-
phen and amidopyrine.
The statement pointed out that
there is no provision in the present
food and drug act TO compel man
ufacturers to declare either of these
drugs" Asked whether this was
meant to sway sentiment for pas
sage of the Tugwell bill, Campbell
said it was not the primary in
tention.
Will Keep Up Fight
But there will be a Tugwell bill
in the next congress, whether it car
ries that name or not" he said. We
will continue to introduce such bills
until they finally become law"
Last session the Tugwell bill,
STRENGTHENING food and drug laws.
was introduced by Senator Cope
land Dem, N. " an M. D. 1t was
revised and made less stringent, but
failed to PISS. Politically minded
supporters of the bill say it should be
handled without the underSecretary
appearing in the picture. This view.
however, is not shared by MIR.
Campbell.
DIR. Tugwell is the first high
governmental official who has taken
a personal interest in undermining
the food and drug laws to apply to
conditions as they are today" he
declared. HE should be given full
credit for such a bill when it IS
finally passed"
No Protection Now
Under the Tugwell bill two
courses would be open for the de-
partment in curbing dangerous sale
of cinchophen and amidopyrine.
Campbell explained.
Its use could be halted in certain
patent, medicines as "adulteration,"
or the company could be made to
state the quantity used plainly on
the label. Neither course is open
under the present law.
Cinchophen, chemical anodyne
and sedative, is sometimes used by
sufferers from neuralgia, rheumatic
pains, neuritis and similar condi-
tons. Amidopyrine is frequently
found in headache remedies and
other pain killers.
Cinchophen causes a degeneration
of the liver cells. Anndopyrine may
cause a reduction in the number OF
white blood cells, Campbell said in
warning against their use.

Ne7U Shifts in L. S. Financial Posts
Aimed to Bring About Internal Accord
.FDIC Chairman, Comp
troIIer of Currency to Get
New Positions.
By United Press

/ By United Press
WASHINGTON. Nov. 81
A further realignment of high
government banking officials
fully as important as the re-
cent shift Of Mariner S.
EccIes to Craftsmanship Of the
federal reserve board was
studied today by administra-
ton leaders.
Latest reports today were that
former Representative Charles West
Dem, o. would be named chair
man of the Federal Deposit Insur-
ance Corporation, succeeding Leo 7.
Crowley, who will be made comp
troller Of the currency. This post
would be resigned by j. F. T. O'Con-
nor, present comptroller, to become
federal reserve agent at San Fran
cisco.
The result of this three-way shift,
some said, would put an end to a
factional fight in the FDIC. Diff
ferences of opinion have resulted
between MeSsrs. Crowley and O'Con-
nor, ex-officio director, the only two
directors of the corporation.
Would Reward West
This move would remove Mr..
O'Connor from the affairs of the
corporation and reward West for
the unsuccessful part he played in
the recent Ohio senatorial campaign
where he lost to Vic Donahey. Mr.
West has been mentioned as bud
get director, now temporarily filled,
but this talk has subsidized. From
present indications, Daniel Bell will
continue acting budget director at
least until formulation of the new
budget next January.
In addition to the above reported
changes, administration officials
counted a number of additional i'm
portant appointments that might be
made shortly. They included:
Two directors for the Reconstruction
FINANCE Corporation.
one director for the Federal Deposit
Insurance Corporation.
One Federal trade commissioner.
One banking assistant to Secretary OF
Treasury Henry Morgenthau Jr.
Have Important Bearing
All these appointments would ne
cessariiy have an important bearing
on the administration financial
and economic program and it is
likely that men of New Deal lean
ingS ultimately will be named.
The latest step to liberalize the
governments banking program and
bring it in close cooperation with
administration moves was taken by
President Roosevelt in the appoint
ment of Mariner S. EccleS, the lib
eral Utah banker. as governor OF
the federal reserve board.
Because of his past association
with Secretary Morgenthau and
known sympathy with New Deal
policies, Mr.. Eccles was expected to
begin a broad program of treasury
banking cooperation in the inter-
est of economic recovery.

II UMORS are about again that
N the Radio Corporation of Amer
ica shortly will place television sets
on the market. Such rumorS have
been circulated from time to time
for several years and probably will
prove accurate one of these days. 1t
is known that the big company has
been working diligently for long
tine on televiSion apparatus, and 1t
is reasonable to suppose that def
inIe progress has been made in the
creation of a set which is near
enough perfection and which can be
sold at sufficiently low price to be
attractive 10 the general public.
Several other large concerns also
are reputed TO be working on tele-
vision, and the chances are that if
Radio goes on the market with
set these others will follow. 1t would
occasion no great surprise if the de-
velopment of this new product re-
suited in the growth of an entirely
new industry.

condition accounts for many OF the
strange things which people do dur
ing the course of their lifetime.
1t is normal business practice for
corporations to charge off in the
way of depreciation certain
amount from earnings each year to
retire WORKOUT plants and ma
chinery. There would seem to be
nc good reason why they should not
make a similar charge for WORKOUT
OF incapacitated employees.
TINE United States Chamber Of
4 Commerce has just voted to
cooperate fully with the admins
tration in its efforts toward recov-
cry. The action suggests that it has
not been cooperating heretofore.
Perhaps it would be more accurate
to say that it confirms the suspicious
many people had that this national
representative of big business had
besn withholding its help, if not
actually acting as a retardlng inf1u-
ence.
According to the Washington dis
patches, the vote was prompted by
belief that recovery depends
largely on the united efforts of gov
eminent, banking and business lead
ers. It seems rather strange that it
took this organization so long to
come to that conclusion. The latest
election returns may be supposed to
have had something to do with its
changed attitude
