This follows a hearing given by

a large delegation met and urged
that an appropriation for the

year be made.
The appropriation was denied,
on the grounds that no provision

was made In the financial budget
for the year. That money from

i ion county. May the Rood work
! continue so that the clan of this
j worst enemy of society may even-

Judge Buishey and the county
commissioners should pay no at
tention to that element which is
' attempting illicit manufacture.
. sale and use of alcoholic bever-
1 j ages by befogging the issue with
j much baseless talk about whether
i or not we shall continue to have
a county health nurse.
I will vote for the county nurse
proposal when opportunity arises
and dare say that fully 90 per
cent of the advocates of law en
forcement will do the same. It Is
UHeless to say that 10 percent of
the bootleggers and their defend
ers would not support a county
health nurse, law enforcement or
any other movement tending to
protect the home, the community,
and produce an environment that
will protect the health and morals
of the young.
All of thla talk about stopping
innocent persons on the highways
without warrant and searching
houses without warrant, etc., is
spurious, without any basis of fact
or reason, and is used for the pur
pose of screening the persons who
are seeking to profit off of the
weaknesses and vices of- many
members of society.
The wise will heed not and the
foolish are not numerous enough
to make any difference, so I say to
the county court of Marion county
and the law enforcement league,
or whatever it may be called, to
keep up their courage and go after
the bootlegger and his kind until
they are exterminated.

Constitutionality of Food
Law is Challenged By
Corvallis Concern
The Corvallis Creamery Com
pany, distributor of Nucoa butter,
manufactured in New Jersey and
Michigan, has instituted suit in
the Marion county circuit court
against Attorney General I. H.
Van Winkle and . L. Hawley.
state food and dairy commission
er, alleging that the act of the
'ast legislature prohibiting the
ise of the words "milk." "butter,"
cream." etc. on substitute foods
is unconstitutional. An injunc
tion against enforcement of the
law is asked.
The complaint declares that all
the federal food regulations are
complied with by the company rel
ative to labeling, shipping, selling
and advertising, but that because
the word "butter" is used in the
firm name of the Nucoa Butter
company, the Oregon law prohib
its the sale of its product in this
state, although the label states all
the ingredients used.
A further assertion is made that
the new law is an attempt to regu
late trade between states in that
the Corvallis creamery procures
the substitute product from the
Nucoa company's San Francisco
house. Another allegation of un
constitutionality is made on the
grounds that the law is class leg
islation. The new Oregon law will be ef
fective May 25.
