aside to expedite their escape,
Judge Madden wrote.
''The extent of such abandon

World War was prodigious, and
the impossibility of policing an
Army to make sure that soldiers
limited themselves to picking up
abandoned property and did not
loot refugees showed the wisdom
Iof this Article of War;" he added

II. ). Ad Man Warns
Of Captive Audiences
By the Associated Press

LONDON, July 9.-An American
advertising official warned the
International Advertising Con-
ference today to beware of ham,
mering advertising messages at
captive audiences.
Fairfax Cone, chairman of the
Advertising Council, Inc, said he
referred to persons required to re-
main in one place for some time
such as crowds in a terminal or
passengers on buses or trains.
Advertising must give people q
free choice either to pay atten-
ton to its message or ignore it,
he continued. Mr.. Cone suggested
advertising that does not give this
choice should be stamped cut.
He said he was tired of critics
of advertising who said that often
ethics and morals were sacrificed
to what was known as good busi-
ness"
when ethics and morals are
lost, it is not good business-in
fact, it is very pad business" he
said. mo amount of advertising
