This Cartoon from March 1912 was created after Dr. Harvey W. Wiley MD left service at the Bureau of Chemistry. The Bureau became the Food and Drug Administration and Dr. Wiley is called its father. Uncle Sam is watching asking who will fill the shoes of Dr. Wiley, a Pure Food advocate. The Bear, I believe is a reference to Teddy Roosevelt.

The Rocky Mountain News, March 21, 1912:
In this cartoon published on March 21, 1912, when Dr. Wiley stepped down from his post defending Pure Food, Uncle Sam recognizes the importance of Dr Harvey Wiley's work. One hundred years later, the battle to educate about GMO adulteration was launched when the CA initiative Prop 37 began. To win back our Sacred Seeds, we need to cultivate Pure Seed and Food Gardener consciousness through gardening ancient grains and heirloom seeds.
THIS IS THE THEME I WILL TEACH at the national heirloom expo Sept. 9-10-11 2014.

LESLIE GOLDMAN ASKS:
WILL YOU HELP HELP UNCLE SAM MARRY "ANTI" GMO?
Leslie Goldman, Your Enchanted Gardener/ Plant Your Dream Blogger from San Diego shares inspirations from the Campaign to Grow A Healthier Pizza. Will you help build our grassroots movement so that Uncle Sam gives up his unholy relationship with Biotech GMO in the farm bed and gets married to "Anti" (Auntie) GMO?
Being a matchmaker for this wedding is a job that belongs to all gardeners who want to fulfill the vision of the Founding Gardener Presidents of America the Beautiful. Thousands of new Plant Parents are needed!
The wedding date is in your hands. The invitation to the wedding goes out to all who grow food with heirloom seeds and ancient grains. His favorites are Kamut® ancient wheat and heirloom seeds from the Baker Creek collection. Read more here about his workshop, Helping Uncle Sam Marry "Anti" GMO.
The Ultimate Gardener: The Best Experts’ Advice for Cultivating a Magnificent Garden with Photos and Stories (HCI, 2009) credits Leslie for photographs and inspiration. The book’s dedication reads: “To Leslie Goldman, The Enchanted Gardener, for planting dreams and seeds of inspiration. To all those who garden and for those who dream to have a garden one day.”
Robert Muller, then U.N. Assistant Secretary General, gave Leslie a U.N. Peace Medal in 1983 for the work he would do in his lifetime. That work continues helping us to win back our sacred seeds.
From "A History of a Crime Against the Food Law"
Among the hundreds of editorial comments perhaps the most interesting are those made also by the Rocky Mountain News, Under the caption "The Borgias of Business."
"If the people exhibited the same persistence in looking after their interests that Illegitimate Business displays in looking after its interests, the things of which we complain would soon be brought to an end, and prosperity, like a tidal wave, would flood the land."--The Rocky Mountain News, March 21, 1912
"For 20 years, at least, the food poisoners of the country have waged warfare on Dr. Harvey W. Wiley and since the passage of the Pure Food Act in 1906 they have trebled efforts to have him discharged. These Borgias of business have won, for the circumstances attended Dr Wiley's recent resignation make it, in practical effect, a dismissal.
"Dr Wiley resigned because the fundamental principles of the Pure Food Law have been strangled; because he has been powerful to punish the manufacturers of misbranded and adulterated drugs and foods; and because the powers of his position had been nullified by executive orders.
"Dr. Wiley was only head of the Bureau of Chemistry, but there is every reason to believe that President Taft will find that Dr Wiley gave the position
an importance out of all proportion to its standing."
The Rocky Mountain News, March 21, 1912

This describes Uncle Sam saying Goodbye to Dr.Harvey W. Wiley. He created a lot of enemies standing up for People's Health, the equivalent of each of us today standing up for the Right to Know.

THE CRUSADING CHEMIST
On June 30th, 1930 – twenty-four years after the passage of the act credited to him – Harvey Wiley passed away, leaving behind a historical memoir (The History of a Crime Against the Pure Food Law) that reflected upon the demise of his brainchild as follows:
If the Bureau of Chemistry has been permitted to enforce the law as it was written and as it tried to do, what would have been the condition now? No food product in our country would have any trace of benzoic acid, sulphurous acid or sulphites, or any alum or saccharin, save for medicinal purposes. No soft drink would contain caffein, or theobromine. No bleached flour would enter interstate commerce. Our foods and drugs would be wholly without any form of adulteration and misbranding. The health of our people would be vastly improved and their life greatly extended. The manufacturers of our food supply, and especially the millers, would devote their energies to improving the public health and promoting happiness in every home by the production of the whole ground, unbolted cereal flours and meals.
The resistance of our people to infectious diseases would be greatly increased by a vastly improved and more wholesome diet. Our example would be followed by the civilized world and thus bring to the whole universe the benefits which our own people had received.
We would have been spared the ignominy and disgrace of great scientific men bending their efforts to defeat the purpose of one of the greatest laws ever enacted for the protection of the public welfare. Eminent officials of our Government would have escaped the indignation of outraged public opinion because they permitted and encouraged these frauds on the public. The cause of a wholesome diet would not have been put back for fifty or a hundred years. And last but least, this History of a Crime would never have been written.

ENLIGHTENING
By Byron J. Richards, CCN
July 2, 2006
NewsWithViews.com
Today marks the one-hundred-year birthday of the FDA. To celebrate, the FDA plans a gala event at the Harvey W. Wiley federal building. The FDA is touting Dr. Wiley as the “Father of the Pure Food and Drugs Act,” inviting his decedents to attend their event. The FDA is quite proud of the heritage Dr. Wiley has bestowed upon them.
Apparently, the FDA would like to forget what Dr. Wiley actually believed. He was an adamant supporter of a true organic food supply for the entire American public. It was the food industry that did not want this legislation, as they were more interested in foods adulterated with colorings and preservatives, a lower quality of food that posed health risks. Dr. Wiley believed that preservatives in food posed a serious health problem. He thought the regular intake of preservatives over the course of a lifetime was certain to be toxic and contribute to ill health. As he stated in his 1905 Congressional testimony:
“I think that the use of preservatives in food may be and often is overdone and that great harm may come from their excessive use….I say, as a plain business proposition, that the men who put preservatives in food had better stop for their own good and for the good of their business; and they will.”

THE STORY OF HOW THE BOOK A HISTORY OF A CRIME AGAINST THE FOOD LAW DISAPPEARED
Well told!
http://www.ohtaryu.info/HOWtomakebk.html
「Upton Sinclair's book The Jungle had helped turn the tide in favour of the Pure Food and Drug Laws. ...
After he left government Dr. Wiley wrote a book telling the sordid story of how those laws have been scuttled from within government.
He knew where the bodies were buried, and he resolved to tell it all and let the American people get riled up again.
However, he was no politician.
Again he underestimated the forces arrayed against him.
Wiley, undertaking to finance his book, turned his precious manuscript over to a printer.
That manuscript mysteriously “disappeared” and has never been found to this day.
Just how these things are done is rarely uncovered.
Shattered but unbroken, Dr.Wiley valiantly returned to work, rewriting his book from scratch.
This chore occupied him totally for ten years.
He tried to update matters, but by 1929 many of his shocking revelations were already old hat.
Some of the villains were dead.
Most of the politicians had passed on or at least out of power.
Still,his volume The History of a Crime Against the Food Law was a primer on government corruption,
quite unlikely anything that has ever been written before.
This time, he tried to protect himself.
He took no chances on the manuscript getting lost again.
Every facet of its production and printing was personally supervised by Wiley.
When distribution began in 1929, it looked like a best seller, Books disappeared rapidly from bookstore shelves.
Yet no letter were received from readers, no congratulations, no kudos, and virtually no reviews.
The books kept on disappearing, yet copies could not be found anywhere.
In desperation, Dr. Wiley put the few remaining books in libraries around the countryーthey disappeared from libraries as quickly as had vanished from the stores.
Try your neighborhood library today and see if you can find a copy.
It should surprise no one today that these things can happen, when advertising budget for one food conglomerate is larger than the entire annual budget of the government agency charged with policing the industry.
Dr. Wiley's valedictory on the last page of his expose was prophetic in 1929.
Today it is shattering....
「 If the Bureau of Chemistry had been permitted to enforce the law as it was written'and as it tried to do, what would have been the condition, now?
No food product in our country would have any trace of benzoie acid, sulphurous acid or sulphites, or any alum or saccharin, save for medicinal purposes.
No soft drink would contain any caffein, or theobromine.
No bleached flour would enter interstate commerce.
Our foods and drugs would be wholly without any form of adulteration and misbranding.
The health of our people would be vastly improved and their life greatly extended.
The manufacturers of our food supply, and especially the millers, would devote their energies to improving the public health and promoting happiness in every home by the production of whole ground, unbolted cereal flours and meals.
The resistance of our people to infectious diseases would be greatly increased by a vastly improved and more wholesome diet. Our example would be followed by the civilized world and thus bring to the whole universe the benefits which our own people had received.
We would have been spared the ignominy and disgrace of great scientific men bending their efforts to defeat the purpose of one of the greatest laws ever enacted for the protection of the public welfare.
Eminent officials of our Government would have escaped the indignation of outraged public opinion because they permitted and encouraged these frauds on the public.
The cause of a wholesome diet would not have been put back for fifty or a hundred years.
And last but least, this History of a Crime would never have been written. 」
(Dr. Wiley was fighting against Coca-Cola, sugar industry and saccharin as food...He was at one point chief of the Department of Agriculture's Bureau of Chemistry, Dr. HarveyW.Riley.

BIRTH OF THE WORD MUCKRAKER
Stories that Changed America: Muckrakers of the 20th Century
Carl Jensen
Foreword by Hugh Downs
Until the twentieth century, a "muckrake" was simply a three-pronged pitchfork-like tool used to clean stables and barns. But in March 1906, President Theodore Roosevelt appropriated the word to wield at investigative reporters for exposing corruption.
Exuberantly written, highly informative, Jensen's Stories That Changed America examines the work of twenty-one investigative writers, and how their efforts forever changed our country. Here are the pioneering muckrakers, like Upton Sinclair, author of the fact-based novel The Jungle, that inspired Theodore Roosevelt to sign the Pure Food and Drug Act into law;
