ADVERTISING prices
To the intelligent people of this
town the necessity and desir-
ability OF advertising is as simple
to understand as their ABC's. But
to the assistant attorney general
of the United States. Thurman
Arnold. who represented the de
partment OF justice on the tempor
arv national economic committee.
advertising is something he can't
quite get
During the past few years. Mr..
Arnold has asked about the value
OF advertising on several occas-
ions. Leaders OF business groups,
consumer groups and economic
groups have patiently given him
one proof after another TO show
that Americas mass production
records and low prices exist pri-
marily because of advertising.
They have pointed out to him that
advertising has been Americas
star salesman. They have demon
strated how automobiles. tires.
gasoline. packaged groceries, and
countless other products would
cost several times what they do
today II advertising hadn't created
mass demand for those products.
At one time il seemed that Mr..
Arnold had finally learned this
basic economic rule, but now he's
forgotten again. At least. In a re-
cent QUESTIONABLE TO oil compa-
nies. he asked them to explain the
necessity and desirability of ad-
vertising."
II Mr.. Arnold happens TO have
some quirk in his otherwise bril-
liant mind which causes blacl
spots before his eyes. when he
contemplates advertising. we could
forgive him that-except he hap
pens TO be in a position where he
could do much toward destroying
advertising and all the competitive
spirit which goes with it and
which forms the very foundation
of our economic machine.
DANGER freedom
one of the great dangers of an
attack on advertising is that II
constitutes a subtle attack on
freedom of the press.
Whether or not Mr. Arnold is
aware OF the close relationship
between freedom of the press and
advertising, | don't know. but II
he and other government leaders
are going to continue their atti.
tude of defining advertising as an
economic waste, it is time this
relationship was made very clear
To every freeom-loving American.
The newspapers of America are
free. strong and independent be
cause they long ago devised a
method of gaining necessary fl
nancial support without gifts, sub
sides or philanthropy. That
method was to publish the news of
bargains in stores. developments
of new products of public interest
and general messages of large
business concerns-and to charge
a price for that advertising which
would be profitable to both the
advertisers and the newspapers.
Without thte support of adver-
tisers, newspapers iould not be
published at all unless they were
merely the mouthpiece of the
government or of powerful fin
ancial interests. So il is evident
that any major threat to adver-
tising is not only threat TO free
dom of the press but to the very
existence of the press as we know
it today.
PLOT censorship
There are some keenminded
industrialists who believe that at

umn" type plot aimed at under
mining freedom of the press and
the competitive system OF bust
ness which has worked so success
fully in America.
These men point out that while
the freedom of the press Is being
zealously guarded so far as at
tempts TO censor news are con
cerned. a gradual squeezing out of
the advertising i'm newspapers
could be even more effective than
censorship in putting newspapers
under the absolute control OF the
government.
Preservation OF the American
press is good enough reason for
preserving advertising. but for the
consumer there are plenty of other
good reasons why curbs on ad-
vertising would be disastrous.
Books can be written on what
advertising has done for Ameri-
cans. But TO summarize what ad-
yertising does for us. want TO
quote a paragraph OF a statement
made by DR.. l.. ID. II. Weld. for
mer president OF the American
Marketing association. Mr. Weld
said:
without advertising there would
be little incentive TO strive for
product differences. which mean
product Improvement This striv
ing for Improvement is definitely
stimulated by the right TO inilu
enee the public to buy-a right
that is inherent in our free eco
nomy. Advertising is therefore al
the very root of our competitive
system. Anything that hampers
advertising would tend TO break
down our system of individual in
centive and free competition. Ad
vertising has been basic stimulus
to lower costs. increased invest
ment, greater production, improy
ed products. increased earning
power, and rising standards OF liv
ing"
These are just few basic rea
sons why advertising is important
TO all of us.
In these days of fast changing
systems of living, we would dc
well to hold fast TO the two slo
gans which are the basis o
Americas success formula. name

Documents Involving
German Spies in U. s.
Kept Secret byCou
Judge Refuses TO
Make Public Notes
Turned Over to +. B. |.
BY the Associated Press.

By the Associated Press.
NEW YORK, Sept. 10.-The Gov
ernment won at least temporary
triumph today in keeping secret
nine pages detailing the findings
of an F. B. I. employe who was
trained in espionage by the Ger
man Gestapo.
Federal Judge Mortimer w.
ByerS, presiding in Brooklyn at a
trial of l6 men on espionage charges
which named the German govern
ment as a co-conspirator, denied
defense motion for permission to
examine the private notes which
the witness, William G.. Sebold, sur
rendered to the F. B. I. on his re-
turn from Germany in 1910.
The court also refused to allow
the notes to be introduced into evi-
dence, which would make them a
privileged public document.
Wanted Pages Marked.
Following these denials George
w. Herr, counsel for several of the
defendants, insisted that each of
the pages be marked separately for
Identification by the clerk of the
court.
Are you inferring that the United
States attorneys office might alter
these notes?" asked the court.
Not at all" explained Mr.. Herr.
IT know from my own experience
in the prosecutors Office that such
things might be lost or mislaid."
The practices have improved
since your time" commented the
court dryly in ordering Mr.. Herr
to proceed with cross-exsmination
Sebold startled the court yester-
day when he disclosed that he had
turned over Gestapo espionage
assignment to the r. B. I. itself
which built a secret radio station
on Long Island and operated 1t for
the Gestapo.
Sent Misleading Messages.
F. B. I. agents transmitted mis-
leading reports to the Gestapo head
quarters in Hamburg based on in
formation dug up by German spies
in this country, II of whom have
pleaded guilty to the indictment
upon which the others are being
tried.
In this manner, the F. B. I. be-
came go-between with a large
espionage organization on the one
hand and German spy headquarters
on the other.
Hundreds of secret messages
flowed through the underground
communication system and F. B. l.
agents came in constant and help
ful' contact with German agents
throughout the country.

rates of pay. The incorporating
unions wanted the basic hourly pay
rate increased by 80 to "a cents.
In his proclamation ordering a
fact-flnding board established Mr..
Roosevelt said the disputes between
the several groups of labor organiza-
tions and the railways now
threaten substantially to interrupt
interstate commerce to degree such
as to deprive the country of es-
sential transportation service"
Size of Board Increased.
Ordinarily a .three-man board is
appointed to investigate labor con-
troversies involving the railways,
but the current strike situation is so
broad and important that the Chief
Executive decided that five men
should be named. They are to be
persons mot peculiarly or otherwise
interested" in any of the unions
or carriers, and they will be paid
$75 each day, plus expenses.
Attached TO the proclamation was
a nine-page list of the carriers in
volved in the dispute.
A strike would affect all of the
Nations class l railroads, which
represent more than 80 per cent of
the mileage in the United States.
Railroad officials have declared it
would cost 100000 900 q year to
meet the unions demands sum
which they say would be impossible
to pay under present conditions.
Other Strike Developments.
A strike of fnnr A r T. unions
forced shutdown last night at the
Clifford-Jacobs Forging Co, employ
ing $50 persons at Champaign, Ill.
The unions demand a blanket 20
per cent wage increase over present
scales, which vary widely. The COM
pany declared recently that 95 per
cent of its business was represented
by defense orders for forgings used
in tanks, artillery and Army trucks.
Unsuccessful efforts were made to
settle a strike Of 1850 employees of
the Wilson & Co. packing plant
at Kansas City, Kans. The men,
members of the Packinghouse Work
erS' Organizing Committee. walked
of the job yesterday morning fol-
lowing the discharge of two union
men.
Members of the A. F.. L. operating
engineers union at Redding, Calf,
threatened to halt all concrete
pouring activities on the Shasta
Dam job at midnight unless de-
mands for a 25-cents-an-hour wage
increase are met.
The men asked SITS an hour, in
stead of their present wage Of 81 so.
Only 81 men are involved, but E.
A. Hester, business agent for the
union, said a walkout would stop all
concrete-pouring because they hold
key jobs.
