A. SCOLLARD, PROPRIETOR Chehalis, Wash., Octe 50, 1924. To the Citizens of Washingon: On Sept. 17 I received a ridiculous $1000.00 challenge : signed by John A. McGregor, whom I have since learned is a | salesman for Nucoa.. In it he states that I have been circu- lating untruthful literature on Referendum No. 16. The chal- lenge was so obviously insincere and so plainly intended for advertising purposes that I did not answer it then. It has since been widely circulated as I had anticipated. I now make answer to him in this open letter. I will give to the Orthopedic Hospital $500.00 if the pamphlet referred to, which has been mailed to all voters, con- tains any statement that is not true; if the illustrations in it showing deformed children were not taken from late ediions of recognized: standard works by eminent experts on nutrition; if the pictures in the pamphlet, showing the results of rat feeding experiments are not exact reproductions from similar recognized books by accepted authorities or from government bulletins; if our pamphlet does not-.state on page 14 that rats when fed on vegetable oils will for eighty days grow normally, after which period they suddenly decline in weight and vigor and develop sore eyes. } Mr, McGregor knew when he made the offer of a rat feed- ing experiment on September 17 that such an experiment could not be concluded before election day, and his sole object was to lay the groundwork for the use of this insincere challenge for advertising purposes. Because I am a dairyman and operate a large farm sup- porting over one hundred cattle, and because I have the honor to be President of the State Dairymen's Association I was chosen chairman of the Pure Dairy Products Committee, which is conduct- ing the campaign for Referendum No. 16. As chairman of that committee, I feel responsible to a considerable degree for the statements issuing from it, and feeling that my honesty and the fair intentions of the committee have been questioned I am prompted to make the above offer. In the circular which contains the McGregor challenge, he makes the charge that I am a butter manufacturer. This is wholly untrue and if Mr. McGregor can show that I own any inter- est in any butter plant except as a member of a co-operative non-profit dairymen's association, I will allow him to pick pea cows from my dairy herd as a gift. Very truly yours, (Signed) J. A. SCOLLARD.> We know we can trust the voters to determine which side has presented the trath in this fight—the Packers or the Farmers —and we feel sure thaton this basis you will vote for Referendum 16. Tks advertisement is paid for by the many small contri¥®tions of dairymen on farms fn Washington
