Cites the Benefits

Os Food Additives

Mr. F. L. G.. Washington

Answering Mrs. E. S. (her

letter complaining about food

additives appeared in the Jan

uary 8 column), practically

every one agrees we need a

new feature in our Food and

Drug laws requiring thorougn

pretesting and submission of

data to officials on new pro

posed food additives. Each of

the recent Congresses has con

sidered such bills. One has

been introduced in the 85th

Congress, on January 3. 1957.

I have read the report of the

International Conference *on

Cancer in Rome, w hich leaned

heavily on conjecture and

speculation. Also. I have read

numerous other reports on the

subject, including the report

of this country’s Food and

Drug officials, Drs. Lehman

and Nelson at that conference,

and conclude that food addi

tives are both functionally

helpful and safe. As testing

methods become more sensi

tive, ,an occasional substance,

previously regarded suitable,

becomes no longer advisable

and is dropped. The reverse is

equally possible.

Soon after the Rome meet

ing, Food and Drug Commis

sioner George P. Larrick was

asked by an editor to comment

on the subject. Dr. Larrick s

response is on page 6 of the

December 1956 issue of Ladies’
