The Golden Age, “The Only Explanation”

2. April 1930 · p.438 · Golden Age Publishing Company, Brooklyn, New York

“By this time every regular reader of The Golden Age knows that we are absolutely right in our stand on the use of aluminum cooking utensils and that The Scientific American, The Literary Digest, and most of the M.D.'s are dead wrong, and as immune to facts or to reason as the D.D.'s are on the “hell” question.”

An unsigned editorial item reproducing two United Press despatches from the Oregon Journal of January 1930 about food poisoning at The Dalles, Oregon, and mocking the state board of health officer who concluded that an aluminium roaster was not to blame.

The Golden Age, “Not Selling Cooking Utensils”

10. April 1935 · p.440 · Golden Age Publishing Company, Brooklyn, New York

“The Golden Age does not care what kind of cooking utensils you use. It isn't even concerned if you insist upon using aluminum of any kind. That is your privilege and responsibility. But it will not cease to warn those who are interested in their health that aluminum is injurious to the health in numerous and various ways. There is no question about this whatever.”

An unsigned item under the standing head 'Poisoning Department'. It was written in answer to a notice in Scientific American that the United States Federal Trade Commission had obtained a stipulation from a cookware seller to stop claiming that aluminium utensils cause cancer; the Golden Age reproduces that notice and rejects it.
