Adams of Wisconsin Busy with President's Views on Meat Inspection Amendments
Washington June 18 Members of the House Agriculture Committee including Adams of Wisconsin discussed proposed amendments to the president’s objections. Adams, briefed at the White House, explained the views and noted officials favor a new clause giving the secretary of agriculture final control over meat safety. The proposal aims to replace current language with a phrase declaring animals unsound and unfit for human food as judged by the secretary. Packing interests likely oppose ceding final authority to officials. Senator Beveridge notes the Wadsworth substitute omits required night inspection and argues inspectors should be allowed in packing houses at all times.
