NEW YORK, Aug. 81 0NSO,
Cotton futures displayed a steady

as selling pressure lifted the
market recovered most of the
earlier losses.
In addition to the hedge SELL
ing, there were scattered offer
ings from the South and Far
Eastern interests.
Weather details showed show
cry conditions over a good por-
ton of the belt and brought an
influx of reports of weevil ac-
tivity. The Government reported
the tropical disturbance off the
Texas coast offered no further
threat.

steady tone although the volume
of business was considerably
smaller than in the previous ses-

BEER MAY BE SENT
THROUGH THE MAILS
Informal Ruling Holds Transpor-
tation Permissible Because Brew
Is on.Intoxicating.

BY the Associated Press.
officials Of the Post Office Depart
ment said today in an informal ruling
that legal beer could be sent through
the mail after midnight April 6.
Attorneys said that since the bever-
age is held mountaineering by the bill
permitting sale. and advertising matter
in connection with it is mentioned
specifically as legal, there would be no
attempt to bar its delivery through
parcel post. Under this Interpretation,
beer would pass through States which
are dry under their own law without
interference.
Another question in connection with
the new law-whether shipment by rail
from one wet State to another will be
permissible-was not left clearly de-
fined.
While no formal ruling on the mat
ter was available, attorneys charged
with enforcement of the law expressed
a belief that States could not interfere
with interstate commerce and that
transportation would be possible.

Here and There
in the Realm Of
Broadcastinq
By STANLEY BIGELOW

We have frequently mentioned
our hearty dislike for long, drawn
out advertising on the radio,
breaking into the continuity Of
sometimes worthwhile programs
and in general disrupting the
quiet and repose of an evening
spent in listening to the radio.
Then the other night, we
though we had discovered new
and enjoyable method of adver-
tising radio wares. But what
happened but that the advertiser
baWled it all up.
It was on the Vanity Fair pro-
gram, and for several minutes, an
actor and actress of rather large
stage fame launched into a three
act comedy, which very cleverly
advertised the product, at the
same time providing plenty of
laughs.
And when it was all over, or
at least so it appeared, and we
thought the entire radio audience
was convinced of the quality of
the product, the voice of the
announcer was heard, telling the
value of the product in his own
platitudinous way.
AS long as it appears we must
have these advertisements longer
than half minute, it would seem
very much more enjoyable to
have them presented in a comedy
vein-minus the additional data,
