other necessary expenses of said Department of Health, connected with
the enforcement of this Section 64.
(I) It is the intent of this Section 64 to prevent both the manufacture
and the sale within this State, of any of the articles enumerated in sub-
section E of this Section 64, except in conformity to and in compliance
with the provisions of said Sub-section E. Inasmuch, however, as some of
the articles so enumerated may be made, or the material used in the manu-
facture or renovation thereof may be processed, outside of the limits of
this State, it is hereby expressly provided, that where the person or con-
cern so manufacturing any such article or processing any such material
shall so have or operate his or its plant outside of the limits of this State,
the Director of Health may in his discretion in lieu of a physical inspection
of the plant of such non-resident person or concern satisfy himself by ex-
amination of the product so made or processed by such non-resident or by
such other means as said Director of Health may deem adequate, of the
propriety of issuing to such non-resident, the permit required by the pro-
visions of this Section 64, or of renewing or keeping in force a permit so
issued. But in the event that at any time said Director of Health may
deem it necessary to make physical inspection of any such plant or factory
of said non-resident, then and in that event he shall be entitled and em-
powered to require the payment by such non-resident, of such sum as may
cover the reasonable traveling charges entailed by such physical inspection,
and to refuse to issue, or to revoke or suspend any permit, until or unless
such charges are so paid.
(J) The Department of Health, through its officers and employees is
hereby charged with the administration and enforcement of Section 64,
and shall have the power to take for evidence, at any trial involving viola-
tion of this Section, any article made or offered for sale in violation of this
Section.
The State Board of Health shall make and enforce reasonable rules and
regulations for the enforcement of this Section.
(K) Any person violating the provisions of this Section 64, or the rules
and regulations adopted thereunder, shall be guilty of a misdemeanor,
and upon conviction thereof, shall be sentenced to pay a fine of not less
than ten dollars and not more than fifty dollars for each offense, and in
default of the payment of such fine, to undergo imprisonment of not
less than ten days for each separate offense; provided that the total term
of imprisonment at any one time for additional offenses shall not exceed
six months.
Each article herein enumerated, made, remade, or renovated, sold,
offered for sale, delivered, consigned, or possessed with intent to sell, de-
liver or consign, contrary to the provisions hereof, shall constitute a
separate offense.
Each imitated or counterfeited adhesive stamp made, used, sold, offered
for sale, delivered or consigned contrary to the provisions of this section
shall constitute a separate offense.
