BAR ASSOCIATION
DEBATES CHANGE
Way Is Left Open for Woman
Lawyers to Apply for
Membership.

AS the result Of a protracted debate
last night among members OF the Dis
trict Bar Association over new bylaws
which would deny membership to wom-
an lawyers, the meeting adjourned
without taking a vote and left the way
open for women to make application
for membership.
The controversy began when Attor-
ney william c. Sullivan, who presented
the report of the committee on behalf
of Col. j. Miller Kenyon, its chair
man, advocated the denial Of member
ship to woman lawyers. He was op-
posed by his brother, George z. Sulli-
van, who contended woman lawyers
should be received in membership. Maj.
Julius I. Peyser and Col. w. G.
Clephane also favored the admission of
women and characterized as archaic
and backward" the effort for their ex-
clusiorl.
Col. Kenyon explained there had
been a division in the committee and
that he personally was not opposed to
letting the women come into the asso-
citation and the changing of the restric-
tion, which has obtained for go years.
The debate was followed by so many
motions and appeals from the ruling of
the chair that there was no time to
take a formal vote before an adjourn
ment motion had been carried at q
late hour.
While no exclusion order has been
adopted, it is expected woman lawyers
will hesitate before making application
in view of the Juror which developed
at last nights meeting.

RADIO ADVERTISING
COSTS ASSA|LED
William H. Rankin, Pioneer,
DepIores Excessive Pay
mentS to Talent.

Excessive costs of radio advertising
were deplored today by William H.
Rankin of New York, president of the
advertising agency which bears his
name and the man WHO did the pion-
eering work in starting one of the three
first programs OF national radio broad
casting.
There are many more reasons why
radio advertising rates should be re-
duced rather than newspaper rates,
Mr.. Rankin declared, pointing out
the high cost of radio talent, constant
ly mounting, is one of the chief rea-
sons why radio advertising is so ex-
pensive. with radio stars demanding
$4,000 and sometimes as high as $4,000
an appearance" Mr.. Rankin said, 1T
Is an advertising luxury which only
the largest companies can afford If
they want first-class programs"
Finds Publicity Vital.
The reason it pays the advertiser to
engage such costly talent, Mr.. Rankin
said, is the publicity given to the pro-
grams by the newspapers. without
this publicity the price wouldn't be
worth it," he said
Pointing out radio advertising has
served to increase the volume of news
paper advertising, Mr.. Rankin believes
there should be the closest kind OF CO.
operation in the use of these media on
the part Of manufacturers and bust
ness firms wishing to get the most re-
turn out of expenditures.
Radio broadcasting in order to DC
most effective and result-producng
| always must have the background ano
support OF daily newspaper advertising,
he said. 1.-THE two media together Will
sell more goods and accomplish results
hitherto thought impossible in adver-
| Using.
Too Many Media, He Says.
| I'VE know from experience" he
added, that most advertisers use toe
many media" Department store ad-
vertisements in local newspapers, Mr.
Rankin regards as news to thousands
of housewives of equal importance tc
daily current eventS-and even more
important to many
Mr.. Rankin who is attending the
Association Of National Advertisers
session at the Wardman Park Hotel
Is stout defender of rate differential'
between national and local advertiser:
in newspapers.
| the suggestion was made at tnt
convention" he said, that publisher'
should make one rate apply to botf
forms OF advertising. But no argument
was advanced to show why the loWel
rate to the local retail advertiser i
fair and equitable" he added.
i Cites National Rates
Taking a national newspaper for ex'
ample, he pointed out that the OUTSIDE

rnent store, which is dependent almost
wholly upon local trade The rates are
made so that he will not have to pay
for this excess circulation which is of
practically no value to him, Mr.. RAN
kin explained. On the other hand, he
said, the manufacturer of nationally
known product needs the local circula-
ton as much as he needs the outside
fit of both classes Of circulation.
Mr.. Rankin believes the day is not
far of when television will appear as
rival In the established advertising
field. In matter of two or three years.
he declared, television will be perfected

to use from 500 to 1000 coolies heaving
on bamboo ropes in order to pull
through Coolies are at the rapids
where heaving might be necessary, and
the ship must pay them $3.50 Mexican
for heaving over each rapid, whether
or not 1t has been necessary to use
them. This method has proved bene-
fetal to shipowners, however. as the
coolies are always on their job. and 1t
is only right that they should secure
some compensation for waiting.
Shipowners Face Trouble.
AS the result of very trying condi-
lions and military oppression, owners
of foreign ships are of the opinion that
they will be unable to operate vessels
on the upper Yangtze River for many
more years. Competition has become
keen, and there are more ships during
high water than are necessary. The
volume of cargo in recent years has
fallen of greatly: silk and wool oil
exports from Szechwan Province have
decreased enormously as have other
products. Silver exchange, banditry,
political unrest and taxes are causing
the decrease.
It is generally believed that, II foreign
shipowners discontinue operating ships
In the upper river, they viii sell their
vessels to Chinese. In this event 1t Is
thought that the Chinese will need to
retain foreign personnel In their Or
CARNATIONS to assist in their manage
ment. Especially is this true for Of
ficers on board ships, as foreign in
surance companies at the present time
will not insure cargo Of vessels operated
by Chimes.
