Benzoic Acid in Ice Cream Stirs Pure Food Debate
Testimony before Interstate Commerce Committee on the Pure Food Bill challenges fears of benzoic acid as a poison.

Dr. Wiley counters that preservatives vary in risk, while manufacturers warn against broad powers of the Bureau of Chemistry. Hearings continue with Kremers and Vaughan as experts testify.
