A later article in the New York Times dated October 25, 1969.

Monosodium Glutamate Banned From Baby Food by 3 Makers; ADDITIVE DROPPED FROM BABY FOODS
By SANDRA BLAKESLEE

Abstract Article Reads:
The makers of Gerber, H. J. Heinz and Beechnut baby foods announced yesterday that they would no longer put monosodium glutamate, a popular food flavor enhancer, into their products pending further study of the chemical's safety.

Back in 1969, the suspicion that MSG was harmful caused companies to take action.  In 2011, people are still fighting the MSG battle, because food companies are still playing with the idea that Monosodium Glutamate is "potentially" harmful.  This ingredient dabbling is pure profit driven and does not consist of concern for our health.
