Want Corn Sugar Admitted as Pure Food
Gilmore City I a July 25. Revision of pure food rules to admit corn sugar on equal terms with other sugar will be asked of the U S department of agriculture. Senator H S Van Alstine announced that the Iowa Farm Mortgage Bankers association resolution will be sent to Secretary Jardine. The plan argues corn sugar boosts consumption and aids corn farmers by developing domestic sugar, noting two Iowa corn sugar factories and opposing export to Liverpool or Cuban imports. The definition change would remove discrimination in food manufacturing use with proper labeling. If not acted, Senator Cummins may push a Senate bill.
