>Hutch: The FDA has *not* ever had that for a name!
Fraid it's true, Hutch:
* 1927 - The "Bureau of Chemistry" is reorganized into two separate
entities. Regulatory functions are located in the "Food, Drug, and
Insecticide Administration", and non-regulatory research is located
in the "Bureau of Chemistry and Soils".
* 1930 - The name of the "Food, Drug, and Insecticide Administration"
is shortened to "Food and Drug Administration" (FDA) under an
agricultural appropriations act.
