Muscatine, Oct. IAN investigation
which was prompted by the officers Of
the Muscatine Ad Club resulted in the
discontinuance of at least a doubtful
form OF solicitation yesterday. Coun-
ty Attorney Stafford conducted the
licitors being instructed to conclude
their efforts. The couple We're can
vassing among the business houses for
advertisements to be placed in hymn
book to be used at the Park Avenue
NJ. E. church In the stores where a
Discrimination was shown to invest
money in this form of advertising the
proprietors were asked If they would
not make a small contribution to the
church. Officers Of the ad club were
not impressed with the proposition
and communicated with the county at
torney, who In turn inquired Of the
pastor of the East Hill church as to
the arrangements which he had with
the canvassers, who were out Of town
agents. He stated that the two had
agreed to furnish 100 hymn books for
the money which they could secure
from the advertising sold, but made no
mention of asking for cash contribu-
tons to the church. The two solicit
ors declared their intention Of turn
ing the donations which amounted to
some $13. over to the church, and this
they were requested to do in the pres
ence Of the county attorney. Members
Of the ad club were opposed to the
operations Of the two not only because
they disapprove of expenditures in
that form Of advertising but because
they were skeptical as to the inten-
ton Of the canvassers to turn over
the cash donations to the church.
