PAGE EIGHT Labels Will Tell More Under New Food Law “Read the label” has been a good rule for generation now—ever since there has been a Food and Drug Act. “Read the better label” will be- come an even better rule as the new Food, Drug, and Cosmetic Act of 1938 goes into effect. Under the old law label reading was primarily protective. The old law forbade false statements on labels, but contained few positive requirements for labeling—although the statement of weight or mea- sure was helpful. The new act requires much more positive in- formation of value to consumers. Department of Agriculture work- ers, who for years have been ad- vising buyers to read the labels, predict that jintelligent buyers who have alread¥ adopted the label reading habit will find a good deal of interest in the new labels. As an special dietory consumers for a | foods will have to be labeled to Jinan buyers fully on the vita- | min, mineral, and other dietary | properties. Another provision re- quires that drugs and devices must be labeled to warn buyers against probable misuses that may be dangerous to health. Still another requires label warnings of the presence of hibit-forming drugs. There are other provisions along similar lines. Most provisions of the law do not go into effect until a year after the President signed the act on June 25, 1938. This will allow dealers ' to move current stocks under present labels. But most food and drug manufacturers will undoubtedly move promptly to get their labels into line with the new requirements. The new labels will tell intelligent readers a good deal more about what they are getting when they buy. Easy Living Softens Teeth, Says Authority Harrisburg, July 21—Poor teeth often result from easy living, Dr. Milton J. Wass, Chief of the Den- tal Division, Pennsylvania Depart- ment of Heaith, said today. “Absence of dental troubles among primitive people might be traced to their difficulties in ob- taining food and the more simpli- fied character of their food,” Dr. Waas said. “One solution to the is a return to a more suBstantial diet composed of foods in their natural state, such as fresh fruits and vegetables, more milk and less meat. “Primitive people had to work hard to obtain their food. Food was not plentiful. In order to obtain meat, they had to travel many miles either killing animals with very crude weapons or setting traps. Agriculture was also carried on with great toil and, as a consequence, what food they did obtain was completely burned up in their bodies by ‘their act- jvities. No excess acid ashes were accumulated in their systems. THE WEEK BUSINESS NEW YORK, RK, July 25—BUSI- NESS—No let up appeared last week in the slow but persistent march toward recovery which was signalized a month ago by a dramatic upswing in prices of corporate stocks and commodities. Shoe retailers, along with other dealers in consumer goads, re- ported a distinct improvement in sales. With shoe prices generally lower than last year, shoe mer- chants are making every effort to duplicate this year the 1937 sales volume of nearly three pairs for each person in the U. S. From Detroit came word that July sales of new automobiles may be better than the June total of 188,000 cars. Meanwhile, it is reported that used car dealers are meeting with suc- gess in reducing the number of second hand’ cars on the market. News from both the steel and el- “Nor did they have any refined, prepared or pre-digested food products. All their food was tough and fibrous and required vigorous chewing. This active use of the teeth more than compensated for the lack of the modern tooth- brushes, tooth powders and pastes. “They had no bolted and devit- alized white flour. Their wheat was whole wheat. Their rye was whole rye and their corn meal was hand beaten from the whole grains. They also had no refined white sugar which is one of the worst dietary faults of today. “Food now is so, plentiful and so easily obtained that we eat too much and exercise too little. “The lesson to be taken from this is that living as we do under modern conditions, we must re- turn in as far as possible to a normal diet of fresh fruits and vegetables, whole grain breads, more milk and less meat, (thorough chewing of all these to. exercise the teeth and gums, and carful brushing of the teeth at least twice every day.” N | aging. Steel mills are operating at 36 per cent of capacity, the highest rate thus far in 1938, and power production last week was the highest since January 29. * % % = 3 WASHINGTON—The U. S.Trea- sury, it was disclosed last week, will ask Congress to remove fu- ture federal, state and municipal bonds from the tax exempt class, to extend the income tax to fed- eral employees and to permit states to tax federal bonds and incomes of federal employees with- in their borders. Most business- men consider this a worthy aim.’ Taxation of government bonds should help businessmen to raise capital. Suppose a retired busi- nessman has $10,000,000 to invest. If he puts it in government bonds at 3 per cent his annual return would be $300,000 upon which no tax would be levied under pre- sent laws. In order to give him this much net return, private business would have to offer him at least 10 per cent on his money, ectric power industries is encour- oY prices are lowest now ! ® NO DELAY, livery at wish!
