A & 2 Expands sAd'
List By 1000 Papers

An experimental plan of placing
company advertising in at least one
newspaper IN every city or town in
which it has a store has been put
INTO effect by A G. p Food Stores.
H K. Betz, vice president in charge
OF the company's Toledo unit which
serves this area, announced today.
The advertising, entitled Market
ing with Marjorie" is newsy and
chatty IN form and will appear every
other week IN more than 900 papers
throughout the country to tell con-
sumers about the famous quality
brands to be found in A & P stores,
A & 2 has always strongly be-
lieved in the selling power of news
paper advertising" Betz declared.
The best proof is that we have
been using approximately 1000
newspapers regularly to carry our
message to the public and with the
total of present additions the list
has been increased to $1,000"
Some of the copy of this new type
advertising will describe the quality
of the products and other ads will
give hints on how to use these foods
to make more tempting and tastier
dishes. Ads are aimed at the house
wife although the quality angle is
expected to be of great interest to
men shoppers, whose number in
creased greatly during the war.
Up to now, retail food advertising
has been devoted, for the most part,
to listing the prices of various foods.
Thus this column, which makes no
attempt to include prices, is a mark
ed departure from the usual practice
of most food companies.
"Since it is new and different,
Marketing with Marjorie is being
tried on an experimental basis"
Betz said.

Backlog Of Arlington
zonine Cases Seen
As Survey Result

A backlog of rezoning requests in
Arlington may be created as a re-
suit of the six-month zoning sur
vey Of the entire county that got
under way this month.
This was disclosed yesterday fol-
lowing a meeting Tuesday night of

requests we're put off until February
pending outcome of the zoning
study. Carl o. Mills, planning con-
sultant, earlier this week began
his study of county zoning mat
ters preparatory to report in
February.
The zoning study is expected to
give q clearer outline of trends
and to Bring the master plan of
the county up to date. If at least
IL rezoning requests are deferred
until February at each monthly zon-
ing meeting of the county board,
a backlog of go rezoning requests
may face the board members at
that time.
-Four rezoning requests, however,
were granted by the county board.
In one action, the board rezoneG
a tract in the 5700 block of North
Eleventh street from Rs resider-
tial to MI industrial to permit
construction of a recreation build

popular music. Anyone could tell

Sidney Seidenman, the orchestra
leader and booker who gave Mr..

employment, said today:
He could put more zip into a

ever played here"

conferred in recent months about
new night club engagement for
the Macias orchestra this fall, and
arrangements had been completed.

country in which such methods are
being tested"
THE situation in Greece worsens
with every day because this foreign
interference into the internal af-
fairs OF Greece not only is continu-
ing but is also strengthened. All
the world knows who is really in
terfering into the internal affairs of
Greece and from what side Greece
is threatened with real danger"
Speculation continued in the cor
ridors over Deputy American Dele
gate Herschel v. Johnson's declara-
tion that his Government would not
sit idly by" and be frustrated by
vetoes and that the failure of the
Council cannot preclude individual
or collective action by states willing
to act"
The apparent American strategy
was to force Mr.. Gromyko into con-
tinued use OF the veto to block ac-
ton in the Council and then throw
the case to the 55-nation General
Assembly IN September. The AS
sembly can only recommend action
but article 81 says nothing in the
present Charter shall impair the in
herent right of individual or collec-
tive self-defense if an armed at
tack occurs against a member OF
the United Nations"
One possible stumbling block to
the American plan was the chance
that Mr.. johnson would not be able
to hold his heavy majority in the
Council as he kept strengthening
the American demands. So far tho
United States has maintained a
to 2 margin, with only Poland and
Russia opposed, but such countries
as France and Colombia could be
considered doubtful on stronger
moves in view of their repeated ef-
forts to water down resolutions to
meet Russian demands.
