Advertising Abuses

Advertising has been getting reckless again. Reputable merchants are more con- cerned about 1t than anyone else. Main tainiag the high standards of their own ad- vertising, they have suffered from the com petition of those less conscientious The head of an eastern store, who is also an off cer of the Affiliated Better Business Bu- reaus, at recent meeting of men interested Tn advertising, urged return to sound prac- tice in this matter Unless exaggeration is checked. he says. the public will lose con- fidence in all advertising. He suggests the establishment of a rigid code of advertising practice to end current abuses
 Three things are likely to happen. with out such control as ke advocates. First, the public will lose confidence in all advertis- ing statements. Second. the good will of the constructive advertisers will be lost. Third in the absence of voluntary censorship by advertising mediums themselves there may come censorship by law.
 Honesty in advertising had made great progress before the depression. Intensified competition lately has allowed abuses to creep in again. Thoughtful readers of ad- vertising have noticed tendency toward misleading statements. exaggeratlon of values attacks on competitors, and other practices not sanctioned by ethical advertising men. The large national advertisers offend in these things more than local advertisers. Readers might add another item to that list: the tendency to dwell on facts or events having nothing to do with the article advertised. Would not the public prefer straightforward facts set forth readably, without distracting essays on interesting but unrelated subjects?

Social Investment

Milwaukee is using some of its public school buildings as social centers. directed by the extension department of the public schools, as an agency of unemployment re- lief. The expense is justified by the belief that ''only to feed, flop and fumigate the unemployed is to permit grave moral deter ioration of an important section of the city's populace. The school children leave the buildings in the afternoon. Then, from 3:30 to 9:30 D. m., and later occasionally, the school buildings become neighborhood centers with recreatonal activities of all sorts.
 The budget for these social centers for the year l933 is $l36,868. That sounds like lot of money to many communities hav- ing hard time to keep the schools open for strictly educational work. But here is an odd fact about the cost - it is $l3 3.132 less than the bill for broken windows alone in Chicago's darkened schoolrooms. Every community has to work these things out for itself, but when the recovery begins it IS likely to come more swiftly and surely in places where relief work has done more than feed, flop and fumigate' depression victims.

Senate For Waterway

At last favorable action begins on the St Lawrence Waterway treaty The pact was approved, IS to 5, by vote of the Senate Foreign Relations Committee on Washing tons Birthday. Probably the Father of his Country. if he were living, would have re- joiced in this action; he was always an enthusiast for internal waterways. <
 Formal action by the Senate as a whole will have to wait at least until the special session beginning on March 4, in order to give the senators all the time they need for talking Presumably their oratory will not affect the result adversely. It looks like strategic time for such procedure. Nothing will contribute more to improving the cur rent national psychology than definite action along constructive lines, looking to bigger and better future

A Chance For Our Homer

The untimely death of Senator Thomas J. Walsh, Attorney General designate in the Cabinet of Franklin D. Roosevelt may make great difference in the future career of Homer Cummings, well known Connecti- cut democrat and orator. According to re- liable reports from New York and Wash ington Mir Cummings is first on the list of democrats eligible to be named governor general of the Philippines Inasmuch as the Roosevelt appontee to this post may be the last guardian that Uncle Sam will appoint there is considerable honor attached to the appointment right now.
 Now Walsh's death has turned up more complications for the president-elect. He IS forced to make another choice for his al ready completed Cabinet. It is possible that the successor to Mir Walsh may be Homer Cummings This is not far-fetched aate- ment as MT Cummings was among the list of those who were rated as probable choices for Attorney General.

so THAT'S HOW COLDS HAPPEN

Far be it from this coumnist to take excep- tion to what any other columnist says, unless it is bad for the public health and the fellow says it too soemnly I like humor when be- lieve folks do not take it seriously.
 The man tells his readers about ride some one gave him in car that has the latest wrinkle in ventilation. He reports that you can adjust the circulation of air in the car so that back draughts are prevented. So far we find no fault with it. But then the gentle goes on to assure us that back draughts start millions of colds, especially in older people, by chilling the back of the neck.
 Not content with that invasion of the health columnsts $ field this omniscient one informs us that doctors will be interested in this new wrinkle for their patients sake.
 Finally the mentor of millions asserts that the common cold is the cause and beginning of numerous fatal illnesses.
 In short he tells virtually everything the wiseacre population likes to believe IS so. Who knows, perhaps some day this great philoso- pher will tell the doctors what the common cold is No doctor health authority darese to tell even if he thinks he knows.
 Mt until technOcracy rules the world will anybody know where desirable ventilation leaves off and draught beglns. No one can draw the line between d current of fresh air that is ventilation-and d draught.
 Aside from the snug notions of lot of old fogey physicians there is not even q consensus ot opinion upon what constitutes an objection able drauGht. Every little mind has d notion of it's own about that, and the notion of the eminent physician is of no greater weight than yours or mlne
 Scientifically there is no ground to imagine current of air that chills any part of the body slriace produces any dlsease. A stiff necK. d lame back, q charlyehorse or general soreness of the muscles may be caused, but that is not serious illness If you have some chronic disease such chronic bronchitis, chronic rhinlts, chronic nephritis, prostatic Ob- structlon, Raynaud's affection c'dead fngers) j., you Representative to any slight chilling put chilling is not cause of any of these and chilling will give you greater discomfort troubles.
 For comforts sake the ventilation of an automobile any other vehicle in which people ride should be the best the engineers contrve. But it seems unfair to the great autOmotivc industry to blame the automobile for millions of fatal illnesses Rather l should say, the old family bus, backdraught or no draught, has contributed much toward better pubic health records in the past thirty
The Waterbury Democrat., 1933-03-03

New York state solons have virtually agreed on the method whereby they will call convention to ratify or reject the proposed repeal of the 18th Amendment. Under the plan, which seems to have received the most approval, including that of Governor Lehman, there will be l02 district delegates and 75 elected at large. This combines the principle advocated by the Association Against the Prohibition Amendment and that of most dry organizations who feel that if delegates are elected from already exist ing political sub divisions they may have some fair chance of controlling the conven- tion The district delegates will consist of two from each of New .York's 5l senatorial districts The road to a delegateship isn't going to be an easy one, though.
