By RODNEY DUTCHER (NEA Service Writer) Washington, June 11.—The depart- ment of agriculture has undertaken to warn everybody against the so- called “health foods,” makers often claim will not only make @ new man or a new woman out of one, but will even sometimes cure dis- ease. You can buy just as healthy food at any corner grocery store, according to W. G. Campbell, chief of the de- Partment’s food, drug and insecticide administration, who holds that the use of the word “health” in connec- tion with foods often amounts to a misbranding under the food and drugs | law. “It implies that these products have health-giving or curative propertie: Campbell “whereas they gener- ally possess some of the nutritive qualities to be expected in any whole- some food products. Misleading the Customer “The label claims on these products are such that the consumer is led to deficient in such vital vitamins and minerals. so-called ‘health foods’ are absolutely necessary to conserve life and health.” Authorities enforcing the food law | s which the | | foods” which have flooded the market lin the last few years, one learns. The first includes whole wheat, rye. oats and bran preparations. Camp- bell admits that such grain products are valuable to the diet, but says: “They are misrepresented when cur- ative properties are claimed for them and when the maker says they provide ‘life-giving vitamins in their tasty natural state.” The tendency to ex- aggerate the merits of cereal break- fast foods and ‘health foods’ has re- ceived our increasing attention in an effort to keep statements regarding them in strict conformity with Indiscriminate use of the word ‘vita. mins’ in labeling may be impressive, but it must be proved that vitamins are in the product if the manufac- turer is to avoid a charge of mis- branding.” The next class consists of mineral waters or imitations of mineral wa- ters, which Campbell says are sold by health resorts and promoters seek- ing to convince the customer that the same benefits may be obtained by their use at home as would be de- rived from staying at the resort and following a proper diet and taking rest “Enthusiastic and glowing accounts of the merits of these waters are fre- exaggerations,” ipbell. . “We are trying to see that they are both truthfully labeled and en- tirely pure and uncontaminated. “The third general group of so- conform to facts as| called ‘life-giving’ products includes shown by medical science and labor- ; atory tests. There is no objection if food is called “wholesome” when it is, but there is objection when an at- tempt is made to show that some- thing ought to be added to the every- day diet to avoid serious nutritional trouble. “So-called ‘health-givir foods and waters are not onl; of money if pu! tive propertic Campbell si are responsible for a more serious loss because their use is relied upon as a substitute for appropriate corrective Measures, such as a proper diet, ex- ercise and sunshine.

This passed through ©: lightning flashe: s rising from her rendering the desk to him, at his rather un quest. And all the time, hazel eyes were locked with brown ones. He scemed as unable as she to hreak the spell, but in- stead of being glad that his ey were filled with her, held thing too strong for under: she saw that he was angry furious. Also—and she marv more than a little frightened. It ‘was very queer and unreal, yet the only real thing in the world at that moment for Crystal Hathawa They said thin polite murmurs on her part, gruff mutters on his—but afterwards Crystal could not even remember them. They had not mattered. Nothing mattered but that sudden flame that played between them, that electric current that leaped from hazel eyes to brown. Whether it was a long time or a short one that the deadlock held Crystal never knew, but it was a harsh pain in her heart that it was he who broke it, dropping his long. thin body into the chair and plunging a furious, distracted hand through his thick, tousled black hair. As Crystal turned away, dazed, shaken, she heard Harry Blaine’s voice hailing the newcomer: “Say, Grant, what about that Pea. body divorce? Did you see a copy of the wife’s complaint or of old Peabody’s counter complaint?” So this was Colin Grant, the re- is | she he apologies and{ candy containing calcium, salt con- taining iodine, food materials with Phosphates added. bread containing carrot flour, crackers containing senna, a laxative drug, and chewing gum containing phenol pthalem, a coal tar cathartic. lodine Missing in Mid-west “There are some parts of the coun- try, notably in the north central states of the Mississippi Valley, where the water and vegetables are deficient in iodine and where the use of salt containing iodine has been held to be helpful in preventing simple goiter, but the general use of iodine in salt is not only unnecessary, but may be asses of “health | harmful.” porter who had not appeared for his assignments that morning, the man about whom another reporter had said uess he’s blown, Harry.

In five more minutes Colin Gra might be fired, and she would never see him again. Her eyes blazed upon Harry Blaine. She hated him now for what he might do to her, through Colin Grant.
