WASHINGTON LETTER

Washington, July 14-The Federal
Trade Commission is about to take
sweeping new measures to insure
clean and legitimate newspaper and
periodical advertising.
Responsibility for false or mislead-
ing advertising is to be placed by the
Commission upon newspaper and per-
iodictl publishers, as well as upon the
advertiser and the advertising agency.
This represents policy long advo-
Gated by those newspaper and periodi-
cal interests which carefully guard
their columns against such forms of
advertising as are recognized as
"fake," "quack," or otherwise frad-
ulent or misleading.
While the commissioners were re-
luctant this week to discuss the pro-
posed new rules to govern advertis-
ing because they have not yet been
completely formulated, it was learn
ed authoriatively the Commission is
of the opinion the rules will prove
acceptable to newspapers and period
icals which exercise rightful super
vision over their advertising columns.
The rules are expected to be made
public within the next week or two.
Heretofore the Commission has
repeatedly cited cases of fake or
misleading advertising in issuing re-
straining orders against concerns or
individuals using such advertising to
misrepresent various articles placed
upon the market. The advertising
medium or agency carrying such adj
vertising has not been cited.
According to the commissions
present plans, responsibility for such
advertising would be shared alike by
both those accepting it and those
placing it. Both would be cited by
the commission and the attention of
the public thereby directed to both.
The Commission has been giving
serious consideration to the subject
for some time and when it announces
its new policy its members are con-
fident the approval of publishing, ad-
vertising and other interests will be
expressed.
With Congress out of the way and
the President and his encourage COM
fortably buried in the Adirondacks,
.athe average observer unacquainted
with official life at the National Cap
ital may naturally be inclined to
think that Pennsylvania Avenue must
be as dead these days as the tradi-
tional graveyard.
But official Washington will find
plenty to do during the hot summer
weeks remaining, while Senators and
Congressman are out on the hastings
preparing for the November elections.

HOLD APARTMENT
HOUSE SUPT, IN DEATH
WOMAN FOUND CUT UP

New York, Nov. S.-tPt-Patrick Nc
Clafferty. assistant superintendent in
fashionable apartment house In
Flushing, was arrested today on a
charge Of murder after a woman's
body without arms. legs or head was
found hidden in a coal bin in the base
ment. The woman was Miss Rabina
Little about SO. often seen with Nc
Clafferty. Miss Little was a nurse
employed at times by residents in the
house.
McClafferty was found wandering
around. apparently dazed, a few blocks
away. He is said to have confessed
that he dismembered the body after
Miss Little died of some disease, and
burned the missing parts. An effort
is being made to get story from him.
A physician said the woman had
been dead about five days. Stains in
a closet in McClaffertys apartment in
the house led to the belief that the
body was hidden for a while in the
closet. Photographs of Miss Little
were found in McClafferty's ROOM
Tenants say she visited him frequent
". for days at time.
McClafferty disappeared, without ex-
PLANTATION, shortly before the discoV-
cry of the torso.
