Bloom Pushes
Labelling Law
Special to THE DETROIT TIMES

WASHINGTON. July 12-Rep.
Sol Bloom declared today that he
would speed action on a federal
law requiring that boric acid be
labeled poison"
Bloom said the need was in
creased by Mayor LaGuardia' S
veto yesterday of labelling ord
nance passed by the New York
City Council. The ordnance was
initiated after a campaign by the
Mirror and other Hearst papers.
Bloom said he could not under
stand why LaGuardia or any one
else would oppose local or ma
tional legislation to prevent such
mistakes as the recent case of a
New London Conn hospital,
where five infants died when
boric acid was used in formula
instead of deXtrose.
