Dr. A!.bcrtr bespoke cooperation be twecn the mnnufacttireis, the public, the press and In one direction nnd be tween th" Stntea and the Federal (lov.. eminent In another, nil designed fr,r the control anil resul.ltlon nf the har.i!-' line, eolo nnd preparation of p.ner.t merllclncs, particularly u.irootlc.c, ,m-i breiiltlnii up of the Indiscriminate rale of drugs like cocaine nnd opium ut.. their derivatives. Dr. Alsberg appeared with an auvc branch, but mndo It plain that he nlsa worn a sword. While ho advoc.iteJ cooperation ho was an ready and win. InK tr enforce nil pure food nnd drug laws ai nnybody ever In charge ', th bureau. "In addressing an nudience Mich as this," tho chemistry chief said. "I fee) that much thnt I wouM say to other branches of Industry would bo out of place here." Just previously he had said that he had been so ?hort a timet In chanre of tho worfc that hts speech tnust be n. declaration of principles rather than a history of accomplish ment. Ho wnn In effect "kltlnn a check." with the hope that tho checks would be amply covered In time. To mast branches of the food Indus try, for example, ho was ready to say that the bureau hopea to cooperate with them In placing their procoaes upen a scientific basis, in eliminating waste and utilizing by-products to the licit udvuntuRe. lie did not mention what branches of tho Industry the bureau did not hope to cooperate with. Ills bureau hoped to do for the food men what other branches of the Department of Agriculture does for the farmer. Aa a mutter of fact tho solution of many therapeutic problems has been worked out In the commercial hVId, he suld. Private InvevtlcatorM have 1,0: tho money that commerce can expend. Ho Instanced the coal tar products ar.-l other discoveries In proof of this. So far as pure food Is concerned, Dr. AlsberK declured that a treat step was tnlton when tho bureau won th" con lidenco of the public. "We realize fully," ho said, "'!i3. much remains to be done-, but public, e-onlldence has been won unci pre cedents have twen established. No backward stop will be ttclien." "It Is up to the separate States to mnke the pure food and drug problem simple. Conditions throughout tr.a 1'nlon will be right only v.hcti cue:. Stnte passes and enforcer1 .'ideniulo fiJ laws und when these laws havo bun unified und hannonlZ"d with those c! the Federal Government." Ho hoped that consumer. Its every Statu would worlc to that end. There w.m a different talc to '.!! when it came to drugs and medlclii'. the speaker declared. The fault had been In part with unenforceable pin) nf the law. The one cmat good ic c-oinpllshed had been by the cooperation of the Treasury Department nnd tl-a Department of Agriculture, which Ii-! kept from the count iy Injurious dross nnd mlsbranded patent ni'-dlclnes. T. s Treasury Department had been able -i evero'se absolute power In this pa' tleulnr to the benelll of the 111 win grasped at tho cumuli nostrum- p.--merly sent in. It Is only when ll come to ilea.lr.iT with nnttvet manufacturers taut trouble arises. Dr. Albcr said. Tn Slierley act will compel th" miii'ita! of ull false nnd fraudulent printing fr'n the package and the r. metal of ail false thernpeutle olalm.". Hut ih.i Is only a partial remedy. It does not si) the Agricultural Department power t regulate the udvonisini.-. Ingenuity will .liable tstruui proprietors t" find way ot hawking their wnrcs. Dr. Alsberg found it ray of hope in this situation, liowev r. This was he cause a suial! and powerful part of the press is censoring Its patent mcdiclr.s advertising voluntarily. Manufacturer themselves are aiding tn the work. sr. I one l.iige concern has ri 0 nU an; notineed that it will n lor.S'T 'leal patent medli'lnes. It has su'D.-titutcl niiii-f"-oret prep.iratl"n.s nf neognlt! merit. liven If the people .'ire protected from quack medicine great task remain', and that Is to protect tlnm from l.i,'.: I'lirmln? drugs,' such as npium ami ealne.

Dr. Alsberg Interrupted his address .n this time to sn : "Should this measure fall It Is ivri.v.n to result In far more drastic nii-asiirc.'1 He said In eoncluflon: "I propcx' use every lawful mean? of the Hurevi of Cliemlstry to nccnmpllsh this c nd TO TAG XFAV YORK fc Merchant Association Wnnld 11" 5o to Advrrtlae the CIO.
