Only articles unaffected by the new
regulations are toilet soaps and cer

Appliance! Are Included
"Body builders" and "scientific

next year. They will be subjected to
the same standard and requirements
set up for drugs. False claims for
exercisers, reducers, developers, and
so on, will be subject to adminis
tration action.
During the present year the ad
ministration has 00 Inspectors for
standards of contents for all foods,
which will be placed in effect next
June. A law of 1923 defined the
standard content of butter, and the
agriculture department has set up
standard grading for most fruits and
vegetables. Of all remaining foods.
only canned goods have come under
the supervision of the food and drug
administration.
Because of Its new duties, the ad
ministration expects a larger appro

fiscal year. The present staff of 742

For the administration of the seven
laws . under Its Jurisdiction, the
agency has divided the country Into
three districts, with headquarters at
New York, Chicago and San Fran
Cisco. Besides these offices, there are
10 laboratory and Inspection stations
scattered over the -country.
U'ork In Three Groups
The work has been divided Into
three main classes:
1. Factory Inspection, to see that
plants are kept sanitary. The ad
ministration has 60 Inspectors for
sea food canning plants alone,
2. The seizure and Inspection of
samples of products of all kinds.
The samples are purchased by the
administration. Its 114 Inspectors
of foods and drugs collected 63,594
samples In 1037. They were then
Investigated by the agency's 105
chemists, 12 bacteriologists, 10 phar
macologists, eight micro-analysts,
seven medlcAl officers and two vet
erinarians. Their reports determine
whether legal action shall be taken
against shippers or manufacturers of
the products.
3. Port Inspection of Imported
foods and drugs, especially tea and
milk. In 1037, more than 35,000 ship
ments were Inspected and 8.334 were
refused entry. When the first fed
eral tea act was passed In 1633, the
United States was rapidly becoming
a dumping ground for the world's
worst tea. Nowadays, little tea la
refused entry for falling below qual- i
lty standards. Two generations of
government tea-tisters have made
the strict American standards well
known all over the world.
The legal arm oi the administra
tion Is a division of the department
of Justice under Assistant Attorney
Oeneral Brian McMahon.

SOVIET DISSOLVES
JEWISH PROBLEM
BUI BARS EXILES
Virtual Ban On Immigration
Puts Up Barrier Against
Entrance Of Persecuted
Jews From Cither Lands
By Norman B. Deuel
(United Press Staff Corre&ppndent)
MOSCOW (UP) The Soviet Union
has solved Its Jewish problem, an
heritage of czarlst racial oppression,
but offers no haven for the perse
cuted Jews of the world because of
the present policy of virtual prohl
bltlon of Immigration.
All foreigners are suspect In Russia
and except for tourists, who are
carefully checked by rigid visa re
qulrements, Jew and Gentile alike
are not welcomed in large numbers
as settlers.
Tills U both because of a fear of
capitalist-Imperialist spies and wreck
ers and because the varied races,
languages and cultures of the coun
try already provide a sufficient
problem of education and assimila
tion Into the structure of socialism.
The census of 1028 counted 2,001
000 Jews In the U.S.S.R. exclusive
of central Asiatic, Caucasian, Crl'
mean and Georgian Jews, who were
listed separately. This Is the latest
figure available, since the census of
1037 was discarded as having been
"wrecked."
tkrnlne Percentage Highest
Of these, 60 percent lived In the
Ukraine, 21 percent in Russian Soc
ialist Federal Soviet Republic and 13
percent In White Russia. The ma
jority In the Ukraine Is explained
by czarlst regulations, under which
Jews were not permitted to live be
yond the "line of settling," Although
wealthy Jew sometimes obtained
residence permits elsewhere. and
girls fook out prostitutes' "yellow
tickets" solely to gain an education.
movement was rlgldl restricted.
The distribution of Jews todoy
probably is more widespread than
In 1026. and the population has
grown In proportion. They have been
absorbed Into the social and econo
mic scheme without friction. Inter-
marriage with other races U general,
no distinctions are raised and religion
plays a declining role. A featured
picture In the Moscow an tl -religious
museum Is a collective farm scene
showing Jews raising swine.
The trend of distribution, although
no recent figures are available, Is
shown by the fact that between 1933
and 1037 the Jewish population of
the Ukraine Increased by six percent
while in the R3.F& R., beyond the
pre -revolutionary "line." It Increased
18 percent. The geographical distri
bution continued at a slower pace
between 192 and 1939 during which
the Jews In the R.8 PB.R. Increased
by 7 percent as compared with 3.3
percent )n the Ukraine and 0.5 per
cent In White Russia.
Entire Situation Changed
The revolution, as with all groups,
brought great changes In the social
structure of the Jewish population
Merchants, who numbered one-third
of the Jewish population, of course
disappeared. ,
Jew Lb h Industrial workers Increas
ed from 16 percent to sa persent of
the Jewish population. The IS per
cent of pre-revolutlonary working
Jews Included 11 percent small art
lzans and 4 percent workers In large-
scale Industry. The present-day 33
percent industrial Jews are almost
all In large-scale Industry.
With restrictions removed after the
revolution, the number of Jewish of
fice employes had Increased 300 per
cent by the middle of the second
five-year plan.
The term "employe" Includes work
ers In the state apparatus, state and
co-operative trade specialists of all
kinds and teachers and scientific
workers.
Although Jews hold many Import
ant official positions, only three have
achieved great prominence In gov
ernment. These are M. M. Lltvlnov,
commissar of foreign affairs; L. M.
Kaganovlch, commissar of heavy In
dustry and of railroads, and bis
brother, M. M. Kaganovlch, commis
sar of defense Industry.
Affected hy Industrialization
Orowth of the Jewish proletariat
was a natural phenomenon as a part
of the. reconstruction of Soviet eco
nomics and Increased tempo of in
dustrialization.
The 300 percent growth of rurai
Jews to the point where Jewish
farmers number 7 percent of the
Jewish population by "planned" mi
gration that Is, conscription.
This was carried out under the
Committee for Land Colonization of
Jews organized by the Council of
Nationalities of the TSIK of the 3
U.S.S.R. I
Besides mass migrations there was
organization of local collective farms
In the Ukraine, White Russia and
the western part of the R-S.P.S.R.
and most Important, the setting
aside for Jewish settlers 10 years ago
of Bl rob Id J an, one of the richest dis
tricts of the far eastern province of
the X&2R,. Tli ere are some 300.000
Jews In collective farms, Including
Bl rob Id Jan.
Rich Are Ret Atlde
Btrobidjan was made a Jewish
autonomous region In 1934. Its land
Is fertile and It Is rich in gold, Iron,
coal, asbestos, graphite and other
minerals. -
During the 10 years since Its set
tlement a clothing factory lime
plant, wood working factory, five
brick kilns and scores of minor state
enterprises have Deen launched. In
the first six months of 1937, Biro
btdjan's Industry produced a value of
5.110,000 roubles. Industrial co-oper
ative societies of the region turned
out 37.000.000 roubles worth of goods
In 1937.
The Jewish collective farms of the
region have been a 1 toted 135,000 acres
of land, of which In 1937. 95,000 acres
were sown.
Twenty thousand Jews migrated to
Blrobldjan during its 10 years of de
velopment. The capital, Blrobldjan, is
a town with large buildings, a "park
of culture and rest" and State Jew
ish theater.
Fifteen thousand children attend
the 130 schools of the province.

BERKELEY. Calif. They've struck

This strike Is Just across the valley
from the gold flelda of '49, and It

University of California scientists
have come across an ancient river
bed where thousands- of prehistoric
animals were mired In quicksand and
perished. Solidified and tilted on
edge by some later convulsion of
nature, the resulting sandstone now
streaks across the landscape as
five-foot wide "vein," and Is being
mined just as the Argonauts mined
gold-bearing quartz.
The animal remains are probably
7,000,000 years old, aays B. A. Stlrton,

Dog fanciers will learn of an early
breed the aire of a shepherd, but
of heavy, muscular build and with
Jaws that could crush bona. This
branch of the family has died out.
Other dog and camel types as well
aa birds and various small animals
have left their skeletons In the sands.
First hint of Important deposits
came In 1926, when Dr. B. L. Clark
picked up prehistoric teeth on the
site. The discovery was not followed
up, and it was only when King Ar
thur Rlchey. a research student, waa
assigned to work there that Its full
significance was revealed.
The location Is on the vaat, sprawl
ing slopes of Mount Diablo, but tha
exact place Is a secret. Souvenir hunt
ers have ruined many aclentlflc ex
cavations, and Dloblo Is only an
hour's drive from the 1,800,000 pop
ulation of the San Francisco-Oakland
area.
The WPA haa assigned workers to
cut out and clean the fosslllied bones
preparatory to scientific study. ,

whether the fish would be available
