National Cooperation to
Stop Fraud

Not long ago group of newspaper and maga-
zine publishers from all over the country met with
the Federal Trade Commission in New York City
to formulate plans to further exclude from the
columns of reputable publications, untruthfu ad-
vertising that is unfair to the public.
This resolution was unanimously adopted at the
conference:
"Be it resolved, that recognize the fact that
the National Better Business Bureau with which
all local Bureaus affiliated) is the most COM
petent agency Of assistance in preventing fraud
in advertising and selling; and that the said
Bureau has expressed its willingness to cooperate
in every way with the publishers in eliminating
fraudulent advertising"
The resolution goes on to ask the assistance OF
the Better Business Bureaus in developing infor
nation for the guidance Of publishers.
In Washington no such resolution Is necessary
For years now there has been close relationship
between the newspapers and the Better Business
Bureau and the governmental agencies to protect
the public against that fraud which may creep into
business and advertising.

prettier than Alice Bull

Mama was happy, day
dreaming again. Mama who
lived in her own make-be-

eyes to the hard, ugly truth
that was always threatening
her happiness. Ignoring
bills, ignoring this new, rich
society that wouldn't rec

papa's increasing age and
infirmities, the genteel shah

While her mother had
dreamt of Honolulu, absently
eating raisins from a box
someone had left open on
the sink, Nancy's thoughts
had been on more practical
things. Almost at the mo-

Craigs and their camp for
ever, she had thought of a
reason-a very special rea-
son for being there, look

In spite of Nancy's last
minute squirt, her frantic
packing, they missed the
