INJUNCTION TO STOP WORK ON COURT HOUSE ASKED Order is Sought on Petition of Percy F.

There are numerous factories scattered throughout the |try, and it is sald that few Indusiries |show greater cleanliness of operation than is the rule in the American chewing gum |establishment. A report of the Department |of Commerce and Labor declares that the |second cleanest factory of any kind in- |*pected by that department was one where chewing gum was made. he process by which the gum fs made is full of interest. Its basts is chicle gum {ana this is bolled 1o the required consis |tency in copper kettles, after which is |added the flavoring and the necessary sugar to give It sweetness i5 the |transferred to large centrifugal recelver whipped Into dough and then removed to {tables where it s kneaded in powderad |eugar.

Of course this s n mere drop In the bucket compared with the |amount of chicle brought Into the United |States from Central Ameriea Chicle 1is not medicinally valuable, but has proved an excellent vehicle for ecarrying such drugs as pepsin. A British court has held ‘pl-p.'lln chewing gum to be a drug, and {under the English pure drug act a drug- gist was fined for selling some that con- tained less pepsin than was called for by ‘()w label. The mastication that goes with {chewing gum produces a flow of saliva which s highly beneficial in certaln forms of stomach trouble. While gum chewing has been principally an American habit, the people of other countries are becoming initiated to its delights. A hig American manufacturer estimates that the United States produces enough annually to give two sticks to each man, woman and child {on earth. Chicle comes to us from tropical America at the rate of more than 5,000,000 pounds a | year, and costs in the raw state about | 82,000,000 annually. The tree which bears {1t is to be found in the dense forests of the troples. The operation in its gathering is not dissimilar to that of gathering maple syrup in the United States. A chicle gatherer has Iittle more equipment than the versatile machete and a plece of rope. He places the rope around his waist and the trunk of the tree, which enables him to scale it as conveniently as a tele- phone lineman goes up a pole with the ald of climbers. Ho makes notches in the tree Into which the sap flows. Later he comes around and gathers it, securing from ten to fifteen pounds a day in the height of the season. A tree may ‘be tapped profit- ably for twenty-five years. An effort {s be- ing made by the growers to induce the men to work by the week, as their ambition to make good wages by the so-much-per- pound system has resulted in great harm to the trees, Planted 40 to the acre, the trees yield 2,000 pounds of gum annually. Land where they will grow sells at from $3 to $15 per acre. The wood resembles mahogany, and the door and window frames made of it are still in an éxcellent #tate of preserva- tion' in the prehistoric ulns of Mexico. It to The tree grows to maturity in a little less than fifty years. ‘When the sap Is gathered is has a milky appearance which changes to yellow when exposed to the air. It is carried to the bolling sheds where it is concentrated to the proper consistency, then kneaded into loaves and made ready for export. The duty on it is 10 cents a pound, and was lald only after the hardest sort of a fight when the Payne-Aldrich bill was framed. The chewing of gum Is by no means a new habit. Our fathers chewed birch bark, sifppery elm and shoemaker's wax years upon' years ago, but even their pleasure in molar activity 1s far antedated. Christo- pher Columbus left behind him a letter which proves conclusively that chewing gum was used more than 40 years ago, and that he regarded it as of sufficient importance to offer some to Ferdinand and Isabella 8 & part of his Inducement to them to finance his second expedition to the new world. He offered to bring them as much gold as they would need, as many slaves as thelr navy would require, chew- ing gum, spices, etc. The gum, he said, was to come from Chiom, and it has been reasoned from this that the chewing gum of Columbus’ dey was a sort of gumy clay qualities But the habit of chewing gum may be traced even beyond Celumbus® time. Ac- cording to an anolest Banskrist poem the sof! ed Hindoo maideén, even in the times when the Hindoo sun-worshipers were a budding people, had the habit of chcwing “kashnir'™ gums, which were supposed to sweeten the . breath, redden the lips and put color into the cheeks. The story of the discovery of the avall- ability of ‘ghicle for chewing purposes reads like & romance and involves some of the leading characters of American his- tory. 1If General SBam Houston had not banished Santa Anna from Texas, or If the attempt to make gum shoes for chicle had not proved a failure, the chewing gum habit as Amerjca knows it, might not have been acquired by our people. Back in the fortles a young man from New Jersey went to Mexico, where he made the quaintance of Santa Anna. He spent some time in that country and then home. When Santa Anna was banished from Texas, he went to New York, looked up the young friend of his better days and, It Is said, lived with him incognito for some time. gested to his host that the sap of a certain Mexican tree might be made into gum overshoes. When he returned to Mexico he sent a bale of raw, hard gum for ex- perimentation. The effort to prepare the stuff for gum shoes was a fallure, and a blg chunk of it was relegated to the wood shed as useless. But the boys of the nelghborhood soon set aside the “‘useless” verdict. They be gan whittling off pleces of the gum for chewing purposes. This was a suggestion to the father and he again got out his kettle paraphernalla. This time he made it into unflavored gum and placed it upon the market, dation of a princely fortune. The next proposition was to get flavoring into the gum. This was a task to which the em- bryo chewing gum milllonaire was not equal, o he employed an Englishman, who was an amateur chemist to conduct a serles of experiments for him. The chemist borrowed $300 from outside sources and with this perfected the orlginal process of flav- oring chicle gum. From that time the success of the chew- ing gum business was assured. Today those boys, who taught their father the secret of utllizing the ol junk in his wood shed, are millionaires. Before they gave him the tip that was to develop into a great fortune, he was doing odd Jobs around Jersey City. From this small be- ginning has grown a business which amounts to more than $30,000,000 a vear It las made millionaires of more families than this one, and has helped to pay the rent of thousands of stores, small and large, from the ‘Atlantic to the Pacific. Some of the big.factorfes of today sell their own gum to the trade. Others are simply manufacturers for the trade, and advertise to makg gum in any quantity and In sticks of any size, prepared ready for the wrapper. ' In this way any person who is willing to_ pay for the expense of manufacture can put a brand of his own on the markét amd tempt millions to come his way, Ong csf’buy gum at all prices from 5 cents a paakege down to 1 cent for ac- is in great demand by cabinet makers, £Ive Sticks. It is sadd thdt while the aggrégdte sales of chewing gum are growing because of the increase of the habit in rural distrlets, the competitiori of the nickelodeon and other rivals for children's pin money is serfously felt’ in the cities. If the prac- tices of the chewing gum factory were generally adopted, It would mean ruln to the business. The operatives are prohib- fted from chewing gum while on duty. On the other hand, berry growers furnish ther plckers with gum in order to give them a happy frame of mind while pursulng their work. The advent of the chewing gum slot ma- chine as an automatic salesman did more to stimulate a demand for pennies and nickels than any other agency exceépt the street car. It now requires an annual supply of about 100,000,000 pennies and more than 50,000,000 5:cent pleces to meet the demands of the trade. It Is sald that the penny works oftener in buying newspapers and penny-in-the-slot gum than for any other purpose. By FREDERIC J. MASKIN.
