The Golden Age, “Aluminum in Soil, Vegetation, Animals, Humans”

20 de febrero de 1929 · pp.323-326 · Dr. C. T. Betts · Woodworth, Knorr & Martin (The Golden Age), Brooklyn, New York

“It is apparent from the above various quotations and statements that aluminum, in either the organic or the inorganic form, produces poisoning to the soil, poisoning to the vegetation, poisoning to the animals eating such vegetation, and poisoning to human beings consuming the drug.”

The lead article of the issue, carried under the masthead 'Volume X ... Wednesday, February 20, 1929 ... Number 246' and headed by the text of Genesis 3:17. Its author was Charles T. Betts, a Toledo dentist who sold a book called Aluminum Poisoning; he was not a Bible Student officer. The article closes by linking aluminium to cancer, and is immediately followed by a reader's letter thanking the magazine for an earlier article, 'Aluminum Poison by Way of the Kitchen'.

Nota de procedencia y verificación

Nota de confianza. Read in the OCR text layer of the archive.org scan on 19 September 2026; the passage is on the leaf mapped to printed page 326, whose running head reads '326', in the issue whose masthead reads 'Volume X ... Wednesday, February 20, 1929 ... Number 246'. Scanner hyphenation closed up. The scan's OCR renders 'organic' as 'organie' and this has been restored; no other word has been altered. The OCR renders the author's initials as both 'Q. T. Betts' and 'C. T. Betts'; elsewhere in the same volume he is 'Dr. Chas. T. Betts'.

Procedencia del escaneo. Internet Archive item 'golden-age-1929' (bound volumes X and XI, 1929), uploaded by [email protected] to the 'opensource' collection. Page numbers taken from the item's _djvu.xml leaf mapping joined to _page_numbers.json and cross-checked against the printed running heads and issue mastheads.

Notes. The reader's letter on the same page ('Interior Aluminum Plating Not So Good', by I. M. Moll) refers to an earlier Golden Age article, 'Aluminum Poison by Way of the Kitchen'. The 1926-1928 volumes of The Golden Age are not on archive.org, so the first article of the campaign could not be dated.

The Golden Age, “The Right Foods”

9 de septiembre de 1925 · pp.781-785 · C. E. Stewart · Woodworth, Hudgings & Martin (The Golden Age), Brooklyn, New York

“Heavy cast aluminum cooking utensils are the best. The ordinary sheet or pressed-out aluminum is not the best.”

A five-page dietary article signed 'By C. E. Stewart' and carrying, beneath the title on page 781, the note '[Broadcast from WBBR by the writer.]' — that is, from the Watch Tower Society's own radio station. It also advises skipping breakfast ('At breakfast is no time to break a fast'), warns that 'Beef eaters lay the foundation for tuberculosis, and pork eaters are inviting the dread disease of cancer', and lists foods to use and avoid.

Nota de procedencia y verificación

Nota de confianza. Read in the OCR text layer of the archive.org scan of the 1925 bound volumes on 19 September 2026. The article opens on the leaf mapped to printed page 781, which carries its title and the bracketed note '[Broadcast from WBBR by the writer.]', and the aluminium sentence falls on the leaf mapped to printed page 784; the running head on the neighbouring leaf reads 'SEPTEMBER 9, 1925'. Hyphenation introduced by the scanner's line breaks has been closed up in the quotation; no words have been changed.

Procedencia del escaneo. Internet Archive item 'magazines-the-golden-age-1925', which holds both bound volumes of 1925 — volume VI (to September) and volume VII (from October). The cover of this issue reads 'Vol. VI ... September 9, 1925'. Page numbers taken from the item's _djvu.xml leaf mapping joined to _page_numbers.json and cross-checked against the printed running heads.

Notes. This is the same magazine that from at least 1929 to 1935 campaigned against aluminium cooking utensils. The 1925 article was broadcast from WBBR, the Society's own station, which places it closer to the organisation's voice than a reprint would be.
