Show EXTEND PURE FOOD LAO TOBACCO WASHINGTON. Dec, 8 Senator Taylor, of Tennessee, introduced a bill today to extend the provisions of the National Pure Food law to tobacco in whatever form it may be offered for sale. HlSfbill is designed to prevent the mislabeling or misbranding of domestic domes-tic tobaccos so that they cannot be offered as imported stock; to prevent pre-vent the adulteration of tobacco with any other substance; the treatment of tobacco with any poisonous or deleterious dele-terious substances, or the offering of packages upon which the weight is not correctly stamped. The measure also seeks to prevent the substitution of any other grade or kind of tobacco in a box or package. nn |
