Counsel for zIotnick
To Admit Charge Of
Deceptive Advertising

Counsel for Zlotnick the Fur.
rier, Inc, decided today to file ar
admission for their client to all
the charges made against the
firm by the Federal Trade Com
mission, including one of decep-
tive advertising on price reduc-
tions.
When a hearing on the COM
missions complaint was called this
morning before FTC Examiner
Henry P. Alden, a recess was i'm
mediately taken to allow oppos-
ing counsel to confer.
After more than an hour,
Charles S. Cox, FTC attorney
prosecuting the case, returned to
the hearing room and told the
hearing reporter to enter upon
the record that the hearing would
be resumed this afternoon at
which time counsel for the re-
spondents would enter an admis-
sion to all charges.
In FTC practice the filing of an
admission is followed by issuance
of a cease and desist order" "
Violations of the order can be
prosecuted in Federal Courts and
fines up to $1,000 for each viola
ton may be levied if the defend
ants are found guilty.
The FTC had subpoenaed 70
witnesses and much material in
cluding the scripts of the radio
commercials for Zlotnick which
helped make Arthur Godfrey IA
nous.
The complaint, which was filed
July II, cited advertising in news
papers and on the radio including
beaver coat reduced from 81 400
to $593. and a mink coat reduced
from $4,000 to $1,495, and called
such representations as false,
misleading and deceptive"

Then another Marine screamed

An empty amtrack came by and

Sergt. Kent looked at the chill
dren and then he went back down
the hill. When he returned he
carried the box with the three
white rabbits. He sat down and
slowly opened the lid and took
one of the rabbits out in his big
hamlike hand. He smiled at the
children.
The fear went out of their eyes
and tears stopped. Then they
smiled and came over to peek into
the box and exclaim over the
mascots of the Sd Battalion.
The sergeant grinned and put
the rabbits back in the box and
went back to his job.

including part of the Woodley
estate, would be rezoned to permit
apartment buildings, under pro-
posal to be heard by the zoning
Commission on November /.
The property lies within the
area bounded by Cleveland avenue

It includes the former Maret

on behalf of Edward c. Baltz,
president of the Perpetual Build
ing Association; Thornton w.

The proposal would permit five
story apartment buildings but
would leave frontage of 140 feet
on Cleveland avenue reserved for
detached homes and a setback of
11O feet on Thirty first street.
Mr.. Wilkes said the apartments
would be of a de luxe type, with a
small percentage of occupancy Of
the property and care taken to
preserve tree paintings.

owns the northern part Of the
Woodley property, was denied per-
