Poole Urges Advertising

without advertising, have rea-
son to believe that our present state
OF industrial development would
have been impossible. Advertising
has accelerated all of the processes
OF business, and it has undoubtedly
brought to us, in a single genera
ton, all OF the benefits and social
advantag es of a hundred years Of
unassisted business evolution"
The above is quoted from Presi-
dent John Poole, Of the Federal
American National Bank. in an
article in the September Is issue OF
Printers Ink, in which President
Poole answers the question: Are
there too many advertised brands?"
President Poole says OF the Fed
araI-American National Bank: 1.-THE
bank with which / am associated
has been constantly advertised since
its organization. and the develop
ylnent and success Of the institution
Fare largely dne to the paid publicity
we have used in making our service
features known to the public.
cit is because Of the fine educa-
tional value of advertising" says
Mr.. Poole, "that I am convinced
that there are too few advertised
brands today. Furthermore, it IS
my conviction" he states. that
there never can be too many adver-
tised brands"
President Poole has contributed a
logical and expert treatise on adver-
Using to Printers Ink which con-
cludes: ct is conclusive that 50
dong as our manufacturers improve
their products and bring out better
and more economical products, there
cannot be too many advertised
brands"
President Savage OF the Central
Savings Bank, a world wide travel
er, has some rather interesting
characteristics. One outstanding
IS his love of children. When at
the Northwest Savings Bank he en-
tertained some twelve hundred
children at a theater party, and
when in South Africa he gathered
up and brought home some wooden
animals made by the natives and
kept on his desk to amuse the
little ones. He is never too busy
to entertain children coming into
his bank. A circular of the bank
states that, a gift Of five dollars
il made for new baby accounts.

LONDON, July 16.-Conversations
now going on between British on
cials and Brig. Gen. Lincoln c. An
drews, American prohibition enforce
ment chief, with a view to curtailing
international rum smuggling, are be-
ginning to cause uneasiness In some
British circles.
The first sign Of opposition to the
British governments action In enter
ing the discussion has developed. In
some shipping circles and other
sources 1t is felt that legitimate trade
shipments from England to Argen-
tina by way of the West Indies may
possibly be subjected to unnecessary
scrutiny and delay. It Is felt that
this would be true If the right OF
search were extended to United
states revenue cutters, even X the
search for liquor were carried out
with the best Of intentions.
Invited BY Distillers.
Although British whisky concerns
showed little interest when Gen. An
drews first arrived here, they now
say they would be glad to see him
and answer any questions he might
care to put. The general, however.
says he Is not interested in the least
in the distillers' affairs.
II am here at the suggestion Of
the British government" he said. "It
Is no business Of mine whether the
distillers are doing an increased bust.
ness or not, but IL the distillers care to
talk to me, man to man, would be
glad to see them, just as ! was de-
lighted to have a two-hour talk with
a master bootlegger' prior to my
leaving New York"
All Hard at Work.
Gen. Andrews and his aides began
working this morning before break
fast arid worked steadily until 1
o'clock. when they rushed Off to take
lunch with the interdepartmental ex.
perts with whom they are comforting.

on the scene, but none was injured
enough to be taken to a hospital.
The passengers were placed aboard
a special train and continued on their
journey.
The train had been re.routed to the

PAUL SMITHS. N. Y. July 1s.-
Pocket vetoes have been given flve oE
six bills President Coolidge took under
consideration at the Capitol on July
3 when Congress adjourned. The
measure signed is an act for the re-
OF Oregon and Washington within
whose boundaries the revested Oregon
and California Railroad Company
grant lands are located. It was ap-
proved after the delegation in Con-
gress from these two States had
called upon Mr.. Coolidge before he left
Washington for the Adirondacks and
urged favorable action.

the measures was made today upon

mitted the Chief Executive to consider
measures passed by Congress. The
time expired at midnight last night.

The five bills which failed Of ap-

An act authorizing certain indian
tribes In Washington State to present
claims to the Court Of Claims.
An act to provide parole commits

An act to remove the charge OF
desertion from the record OF Ben
tamin s. McHenry.
An act to carry into effect the
twelfth article OF the treaty between
the United States and the Shawnee
Indians proclaimed October IA, 1868.
An act to reinstate joe Burton
Coursey In the West Point Military
Academy.
All six bills were taken under ad-
visement by the President, 1t was ex-
planned at the time. because he was
unfamiliar with their details. None
was OF general importance and no
statement accompanied the brief an
nouncement in explanation Of the rea-
sons for disapproval.
The signing Of the one measure
within the Today period but after
the sine die adjournment OF Congress
Is not without precedent, although It
involves questions upon which some
legal authorities disagree and upon
which the courts have never been
called to pass finally.
President Wilson signed two meas
ures In June, 1920. after the adjourn
ment of Congress and his action was
never challenged The only other
similar case, 50 far as recalled here,
was a bin signed by President Lin
coin through an inadvertence after

match" London-C Caillaux Presses for

Aroused by public comparisons Of
frances debt settlement with En-.
gland and with this country, Secre-
tary Mellon. In a formal statement to-
day, declared mo other creditor OF
France has accorded such generous
treatment" as has America.
The statement, coming on the heels
of hints from Paris that Finance Min
lister Cafllaux might seek modification
of the American agreement as result
of terms received from England. was
regarded here as definite rejection Of
such intimation.
Mr.. Mellon, who Is chairman of the
American Debt Commission, issued
the statement Just prior to his de.
parture for a vacation in Europe, and
because of what he described as 'the
ERRONEOUS comparisons in the Amer
lean press of the British. French set

tlement."
Analysis of Settlement.
''The settlement OF the French
obligation to America" the statement
said. has been made along some
what different lines from the settle
ment Of French obligations to Great
Britain. With the British, banking
advances and commercial obligations
for war stocks have been treated
separately from the war debt proper.
II, however, we compare the settle
ment Of all of Frances indebtedness
to England with the settlement of
her indebtedness to America, France
has had generous treatment from us.
Particularly Is this true during the
first Ave years. which will be most
difficult for France.
THE American settlement with
France embraces all Of Frances in
debtedness, and represents, in the
opinion of the American commission,
