...greater might be its power of stimulating blood formation. His persuasiveness induced the Government's meat inspectors to release him sufficient fetal livers for his purpose. The remedy apparently has proved successful. Dr. Gordon's success gained the Department of Agriculture's cachet last week. Rice Price Steddom. chief of the Federal Meat Inspection Service, offered to release to reputable physicians, medical institutions and pharmaceutical manufacturers all possible fetal livers which reach slaughter.
