Support of more stringent food and drug regulations was voted by the convention, closing its sessions yesterday. Women are partly to blame for the worthless and sometimes dangerous foods and drugs sold by unscrupulous manufacturers, delegates were told. Speaking on women’s responsibility in regard to consumer legislation, Mrs. Harris T. Baldwin. Washington, D. C, League's legislative department chairman, said “The specific stake of consumers in an economic system is difficult to isolate.” “There are instances where women’s interest as consumers is obvious,” she said. “No woman wishes to waste the family income by buying worthless or dangerous food, drug, or cosmetic products.” No woman, she said, wishes to run the risk of marring her personal attractiveness or of courting serious illness by the use of dangerous cosmetics or reducing products, yet she has not persuaded Congress to enact legislation which will give her the information and protection to which she is entitled. “Legislators aren’t mind readers and wishful thinking in a government such as our is not enough—effective expression of the desires of citizens is imperative,” she said. The problem is simple, Mrs. Baldwin said, but the actual legislation necessary to solve it is difficult. “Women are inclined to be swayed, first by the specious arguments of the manufacturers who wish to continue to sell practically worthless foods, drugs, and cosmetics at exorbitant prices, and who have no scruples about deluding the public into believing that their products are not dangerous to health; second, by the arguments of those idealists who claim that nothing short of their idea of perfection in legislation is acceptable.” DELTA GAMMA GROUP TO MEET Delta Gamma Alumni luncheon section is to meet at 1 May 9 with Mrs. Dudley A.
