SENATE PASSES PURE FOOD BILL IS SENTTO HOUSE Four Amendments Attach ed to Wright’s House . Bill With four amendments attached, the senate Wednesday morning passed the Wright pure food bill. Passage of the measure followed con siderable debate, and an effort on the part of Senator Bunn to have the bill go over to next session, which Senator Steed opposed In a very strong speech. The flrit amendment was offered by Senator Bunn, and relates to defining when an article la misbranded. The original bill required labeling an arti cle showing "the quantity or propor tion of any alcohol." It was amendsd so as to Insert after alcohol “which la In excess of the amount prescribed by the United Stales pharmacopoeia or the national formulary as a solvent or pre servative.” ' It alao amends the same section relative to labeling In consplc uous letters such articles as contain alcohol, morphine, opium, cocaine, heroin, alpha or beta eucalne. chloro form, cannabis lndlca, etc. The amend ment requires the label to be as con spicuous as Is required by the United States law.

Blalock fixes the Inspection fee per ton for feed stuffs at 10 cents In stead of 20.

The but as amended was Immediately transmitted to the house. //OA 7 . HOKE SMITH HAS PUT 14 SPEAKERS ON THE ROAD GEORGIA NEWS IN PARAGRAPHS Atlanta Capitalist Interested. Special to The Georgian.
