Flour Bleaching Agent
Banned by U. 5. Order
BY the Assoeiotsd Press

The Government yesterday tenta-
lively ordered American millers to
stop using nitrogen trichloride as an
agent for bleaching bread flour.
Federal Security Administrator
Oscar Ewing set next August as a
deadline for mills using this gas to
convert their processing machinery
to the use of some other Ingredient.
Ten days was allowed millers to pro-
test the order.
Mr.. Ewing emphasized that. the
changeover is the result of recent
hearings held at the request of mil
lers themselves.
An FSA chief said the hearings
followed a report by Sir Edward
Mellanby of the British Food Min
istry that he had found nitrogen
ltrichloride, the most commonly
used bleaching ingredients, causes q
nervous condition in dogs and other
small animals.
The official said Mellanby's find.
ings have been confirmed by United
States Government researches, but
they said there is no definite evi-
dence that the ingredient Is harmful
to humans.
Ofncials said that Immediately
after Mellanby's findings became
known in this country. American
millers began seeking a different
method of bleaching flour.
