William E. Humphrey to have the
Federal Trade Commission seek
to place the responsibility for
fraudulent or misleading advertis-
ing upon those who accept it as
well as upon those who place it
narrowed down this week to
TRUE ROMANCES magazine,
said to be a Bernard McFadden
publication, against which COM
plant was issued because of an
"anti-fat" advertisement carried
in the June issue.
We learn Mr.. Humphreys as
sociates on the Commission are
still strongly disposed to permit
him to carry on alone his cam
paign against what he describes
as "unclean and dishonest adver-

held Objectionable as a basis for
similar complaints against other
periodicals accepting similar adj
vertisements.
No answer has yet been filed
by the Beautiful Womanhood
Corporation, headquarters, New
York City, which is named in
the complaint as the publisher of
TRUE ROMANCES magazine.
Whether one will be forthcoming
is problematical. Mr.. Humphrey
