how is it justifiable for such an or
sanitation to serve as a vehicle and
an agent, through the payment of
dollars and cents, for the schemes of
tricksterS or those who exploit the
Credulity of unsOphiscated readers?'
The speaker pointed out that in
some periodicals of the United States
special censorship is exercised over
certain types of advertising, certain
advertisers are required to give bank
references, plainly misleading or
fraudulent advertisements are exclud-
ed. and other methods are used to
protect the readers and the honest
advertisers alike. For the speaker
declared that a questionable ad is
just as dangerous to the honest ad-
vertiser as it is to the unsophiscated
reader. There are some advertise
ments which tend, he said. to pro
mote vice or work upon the super
stitions of some readers.
Those sections called secret cor
respondenCe" or personal column,
which used to appear in some papers
were a way of making appointments
or interviews of highly doubtful
morality. The advertisements of for
tune tellers, palmists and others are
also obnoxious, since they baton
upon the childish credulity of peo-
pie who are ignorant or superstitious,
or who are worried over grave prob
lens.
Advertisements for patent medi-
cine or treatment announced as in
fallible for the rapid and sure cure
of diseases, which are still beyond
remedy, should be prescribed, for
they are inserted by charlatans seek
ing to exploit desperate sufferers.
Finally. there are those who attempt
to attract the attention of readers
by using, or rather abusing. the nude
female figure in such a way that it
is an insult to decency and to femi-
nine dignity, making the beautiful
form of mans companion into a
hackneyed advertising motif, serv-
ing for automobiles, clothing or soft
drinks alike
There are some newspapers, DR..
Guerra continued, that already have
established very strict rules with
reference to these subjects, and he
urged that they should be made gen
eral. The Diario de Ia Marina of

Sented, has fixed and very radical

committee to study the possibilities
and advantages of organizing an in
ternational advertising service, to be
carried on by the periodicals them
selves.
a. That all influence of advertising
upon the policies and management
of periodicals should be prescribed
through it's reputation and condem-
nation by the press itself, brought to
, bear on every case in which this prin'
ciple of press ethics is broken.
Mr.. Castaneda. in presenting the re-
port on advertising, said that newspa-
per advertising must be considered
under two general aspects, namely,
that referring to ethics. and that re-
ferring to the material benefit that adj
vertisements bring to the newspaper:
The use of government propaganda
in years past, he pointed out, to serve
such purposes as the purchase of
bonds, to allow the purchase of war
material for the preparation OF the
country's defense, has been changed
today to the canvasSing of public
opinion for placement of bonds and
foreign loans by reaching both large
and small investors with the facts
about, such interests.
The nature of the paper and it's repu
tation are naturally items that bear
heavily on the worth of the advertise
ment, the speaker continued. news
paper whose ethics are above the mere
accumulation of dollars is bound TO be
considered and trusted more.
Turning then to the subject of
newspaper organization, including
the establishment of special depart
ments of newspapers, such as, for in
stance, q section devoted to sug-
gestions and explanations which the
general public may have to make. the
use of illustrations and finally special
activities, the congress heard a report
from DR.. Luis Miro QueSada, publish
err of FL Commercio. Lima. Peru. DR..
Quesada strongly supported the idea
of maintaining a sort of public
forum in every worthy newspaper,
wherein the people themselves might
express their own ideas.
BY way Of explanation. the speaker
pointed out that 1t was just such a.
column in FL Commercio that sue
ceeded in bringing about the freedom
of the slaves in Peru. That column,

Endorse Walter Pope

Arnold Myers, prominent Arkansas
writer. who conducts column 1t
Seems To Me-" in the Little Rock
Daily News, has the following to say
i'm regard to our candidate for supreme
Judge, Walter L. Pope:
"The voters of Arkansas on August
10 will be called upon to select Two
men to fill the places on the Arkansas
Supreme Court created by a constltu-
tionaE amendment adopted at the 1874
election for the purpose of increasing
the personnel of the Court to seven
members. For the positions, nine men
have offered and out of that NUMBER
the voters must select two.
"The selection of the two men VIII
he no easy task for all candidates ap-
near TO be-men of the highest standing
and all possess ability. But there IS
one of the nine men who the writer
knows deserves consideration at the
hands of the voters; one man whose
past record, even from boyhood' mas
been such as to entitle him to the re-
spect of all persons who appreciate
honest effort and strict application TO
duty.
"That man is Walter L. Pope of Po-
cahontas, former Judge of the SIX
teenth Judicial Circuit.
"The writer has known Walter per-
sonally since the days when he was a
student in a rural school in Lawrence
county; a school of which the writer
was the master. Walter was one OF
the brightest and most studious OF
boys and even at that early age it was
not hard to discern that he was des-
tined to be great.
During the years since those school
days. the writer has watched the pro-
gress of his former pupil: has seen
him take up the profession of law ana
climb to a high position among the bar
risters of Arkansas. When a few
years ago Walter aspired to be the
circuit Judge of his district, the writer
was permitted to lend his aid in at
tanning that ambition and the manner
in which Walter Pope, the judge. ac-
quilted himself was such as to bear out
his promises of early youth Now Wal
ter wants place on the Supreme
Court and if he reaches that position,
Arkansas will find him man we'll
worthy of trust. Confidence placed in
Walter Pope will never be betrayed"
