cording to an article in the July 1851
issue of Consumers Union Consumer
| Reports" on chemicals in food, I'm the
| opinion of medical experts the
chemical infiltration of the food sup
ply of the nation is so extensive that
it may be subtly and seriously under
mining the health of the American
people-either by the direct effect of
these chemicals on the body tissues
or by their displacement of ingredients
of proved nutritive value" While the
dangers of most of these chemicals
are not readily and Immediately dis
cernible, there is reason to fear the
health impairment of our entire ma
ton through Chronic, cumulative eff
fects of slow-acting, subtle poisons."
Perhaps the greatest ingestion of a
questionable chemical is taking place
In the line of bread and bakery goods,
through the use of emulsifierS whose
chief purpose is to make bread soft"
and fresh in appearance. At the pres
ent time, bakers are not required to
list such emulsifiers on the label, but
so long as the average consumer is
not aware of the danger of such a
chemical in the product or cannot buy
competing product without that
chemical, what use would there be in
informative labelling?
Chemicals are being used, ostensibly,
to improve the stability and the flavor
of food actually, to get the same price
for a cheaper product. Moreover, and
of particular concern to the farmer
and consumer alike: in many cases
Cas In bakery products) chemicals sub
stltute for all or part of the nutritive
ingredients such as fats, eggs and
milk. Thus, potentially poisonous in
gradients are substituted for those
needed to maintain good health.
4
moral aspects of the selfish profit mot
ives that can lead to such state of
affairs. Suffice it to suggest here
that the same zeal with which Dr.
Harvey w. Wiley Cat that time chief
chemist for the Dept. of Agri.) fought
for the original food and drug act
must now be employed to bring that
law abreast of modern day realities.
Spokesman for industry, and particular
ly the chemical industry, contend that
the present federal food and drug laws
are satisfactory eyes, to them) and no
changes should be made that would
stop chronological advances for i'm
proVement and extension of the food
supply" We must agree with the
spokesman for the Council on Foods
and Nutrition of the American Medi-
cal Association who stated: "Inten-
tional chemical additiVes Ito foods)
must not be permitted until the com
plete harmlessness of these agents can
be demonstrated beyond reasonable
doubt. Furthermore, the use of addi-
tvs which lead to a significant de-
crease in nutritive value should not be
permitted"
Evidently, the art of adulteration is
an old, if not an honorable calling
In Athens and Rome there were special
wine inspectors to catch adulterators.
we note also that in 1912 wine faIsi-
Tier in Germany was forced to drink
six quarts of his own vintage-from
the effects of which he died Which |
suggests an idea for dealing with the |
chemical adulterators of modern day.

been able to carry on his Law
business and "to live a normal
life"
The younger Tobey wrote that
he could not, of course, say that
DR.. Lincoln's treatments were ''to-
tally responsible for my present
state of good health"
He added, however. that as
a result Of his own experience
and reports of other cancer vic
Tins treated by the doctor, Il
am deeply convinced that here is
a medical discovery that should
be investigated at once for the
possible benefit of many thou
sands of homes. -
He said he hoped his letter
would give incentive to cancer
research institutes and clinics to
investigate and evaluate re-
search program which has APP
parently demonstrated its ability
to arrest and dissipate cancerous
growth"
In his letter, Mr.. Tobey also
said that 1.-THE evaluation of the
component parts of DR.. Lincoln S
therapy, together with his elm
ical results. have been largely
corroborated by a number of other
investigators working independ-
emily.
Each one has atteSted to the
therapeutic utility and individ-

The letter was written by the

requested it be placed in the Con-

would spur further research into
the type of treatment he received.
The letter did not go into de-
tails about the treatment but
mentioned the use of "anti-biotic
agents" Such agents include
penicillin, streptomycin and others
used in the treatment of various
ailments.

Should q Dog Be Judged
By the Company He Keeps?

Bent on mischief, band Of dogs
spent a busy morning harassing
farmers cattle. Then they went
off to romp in a nearby field,
where they were soon joined by a
big, friendly collie. Meanwhile. the
farmer decided to teach the ma
RAIDERS lesson. He took his rifle,
went to the field, and shot into the
pack. Unfortunately. the bullet
struck down the only innocent one
of the lot-the collie. When the col
lies owner sued for damages. tho
farmer argued that it was the dog
own fault for getting naked up with
troublemakers. But the court was
not impressed and held the farmer
liable. The Judge said that an in
nocent dog should not be con-
demned just because he gets into
bad company!
